• Social plug-in - "Facebook"

  • What personal data is collected and to what extent is it processed?

    On our website, we have integrated a social plug-in of the social network "Facebook", which is operated by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, 2 Dublin, Ireland, e-mail: impressum-support@support.facebook.com, website: http://www.facebook.com/ ("Facebook"). When you visit a page that contains such a plug-in, your browser automatically establishes a background connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plug-in is transmitted by Facebook directly to your browser and only integrated into our site. Through this integration, Facebook receives the information that your browser has loaded a specific page of our website. This also applies if you do not have a Facebook profile or are not currently logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a Facebook server in Ireland and stored there. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly associate your visit to our website with your Facebook profile. If you interact with the plug-ins, for example by clicking the "Like" button or leaving a comment, this information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on your Facebook profile and displayed to your Facebook contacts that you have activated for this purpose.

  • Legal basis for the processing of personal data

    Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (if you have registered with "Facebook") and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (if you have not registered with Facebook). Insofar as the processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, the legitimate interest of the site operator is to enable users to interact with the site operator's content on Facebook.

  • Purpose of the data processing

    The primary purpose of data collection is to offer you a social interaction option linked to Facebook and thus to make our website interactive. The scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data you provide by Facebook as well as your rights in this regard and setting options to protect your privacy can be found in Facebook's data protection information: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy

  • Duration of storage

    Facebook will store the data relevant for the provision of the web service for as long as necessary. If the data is subject to statutory retention obligations, it will be deleted after the retention obligation has expired.

  • Objection and deletion options

    If you do not want the Facebook social plug-in to be executed, you can also prevent it from being executed by installing a corresponding add-on or script blocker. If you do not want Facebook to assign the data collected via our website to your Facebook profile, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website. The objection and removal options are otherwise based on the general regulations on the right to object and the right to erasure under data protection law described below in this privacy policy.

Information on the use of cookies

• What personal data is collected and to what extent is it processed?

  We integrate and use cookies on various pages to enable certain functions of our website and to integrate external web services. Cookies are small text files that your browser can store on your access device. These text files contain a characteristic string of characters that uniquely identifies the browser when you return to our website. The process of saving a cookie file is also referred to as "setting a cookie". Cookies can be set both by the website itself and by external web services. The cookies are set by our website or the external web services in order to maintain the full functionality of our website, to improve user-friendliness or to pursue the purpose stated with your consent. Cookie technology also enables us to recognize individual visitors by means of pseudonyms, e.g. individual or random IDs, so that we can offer more individual services. Details are listed in the table below.

• Legal basis for the processing of personal data

  Insofar as cookies are processed on the basis of consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, this consent is also deemed consent within the meaning of Section 25 para. 1 TTDSG for the setting of cookies on the user's terminal device. Insofar as another legal basis is stated in accordance with the GDPR (e.g. to fulfill the contract or to fulfill legal obligations), the storage or setting is based on an exception in accordance with Section 25 (2) TTDSG. This is the case "if the sole purpose of storing information in the end user's terminal equipment or the sole purpose of accessing information already stored in the end user's terminal equipment is to carry out the transmission of a communication over a public telecommunications network" or "if the storage of information in the end user's terminal equipment or access to information already stored in the end user's terminal equipment is strictly necessary to enable the provider of a telemedia service to provide a telemedia service expressly requested by the user". The relevant legal basis can be found in the cookie table listed later in this section.

  You can set your browser according to your wishes so that the setting of cookies is generally prevented. You can then decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept cookies or to accept cookies in principle. Cookies can be used for various purposes, e.g. to recognize that your access device is already connected to our website (permanent cookies) or to save recently viewed offers (session cookies). If you have expressly given us permission to process your personal data, you can revoke this consent at any time. Please note that this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation.

Data security and data protection, communication by email

Your personal data is protected by technical and organizational measures during collection, storage and processing in such a way that it is not accessible to third parties. In the case of unencrypted communication by e-mail, we cannot guarantee complete data security on the transmission path to our IT systems, so we recommend encrypted communication or the postal service for information requiring a high level of confidentiality.
