There is no time limit on storage on the blacklist. You may object to this storage provided that your interests override our legitimate interest.
We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social media platforms. The specific social media platforms we use are listed below.
Social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. can generally analyse your user behaviour in detail when you visit their website or a website featuring integrated social media content (e.g. ‘Like’ buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media pages triggers numerous data-processing operations relevant to data protection.
Specifically:
If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal may associate this visit with your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected even if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the relevant social media portal. In this case, data is collected, for example, via cookies stored on your device or by recording your IP address.Using the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media platforms can create user profiles that record your preferences and interests. In this way, interest-based advertising may be displayed to you both on and off the respective social media platform. If you have an account with the relevant social network, interest-based advertising may be displayed on all devices on which you are logged in or have previously been logged in.
Please also note that we are not able to track all data processing activities on the social media platforms. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media platforms. For details, please refer to the terms of use and privacy policies of the respective social media platforms.
Legal basis
Our social media presence is intended to ensure the most comprehensive online presence possible. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal grounds, which must be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR).Data controller and exercising your rights
When you visit one of our social media pages (e.g. Facebook), we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered by that visit. You may, in principle, exercise your rights (right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and the right to lodge a complaint) both against us and against the operator of the relevant social media platform (e.g. against Facebook).Please note that, despite our joint responsibility with the social media platform operators, we do not have full control over the data processing operations carried out by the social media platforms. Our options depend largely on the corporate policy of the respective provider.
Retention period
Data collected directly by us via our social media presence is deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies, you request its deletion, you withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.We have no influence over the retention period of your data stored by the operators of social networks for their own purposes. For further details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. via their privacy policy, see below).
