10      Data protection notice for our presences in social media

We operate the following own presences in social media:

We use the services of

  • Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA and Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”), respectively
  • Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA (“Vimeo”)

back.

Based on the ruling of the European Court of Justice of 05.06.2018 (available at http://curia.europa.eu/juris/document/document.jsf?text=&docid=202543&pageIndex=0&doclang=DE&mode=req&dir=&occ=first&part=1&cid=298398), operators of presences on social media and the operators of the social media themselves are deemed to be joint data controllers.

We would like to point out that you use our presences in the social media and their functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g. commenting, sharing, rating). Alternatively, you can also access the information that we make available in the social media on our own website at www.megaherz.org.

10.1   Data processed by social media

When you visit our social media sites, the operators of the social media collect, among other things, your IP address as well as other information that is present on your PC in the form of cookies. This information is used to provide us, as the operator of the site, with statistical information about the use of the site. The data collected about you in this context is processed by the operators of the social media and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union. What information the operator of the respective social network receives and how it is used is described in the privacy statements of the respective social networks. There you will also find information on how to contact them.

You can find more detailed information on this under the following links:

Facebook:                          https://de-de.facebook.com/help/pages/insights

                                           https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy

                                           https://de-de.facebook.com/full_data_use_policy

Vimeo:                               https://vimeo.com/privacy

In what way the operators of the social media use data from the visit of our presence in the social media for their own purposes, to what extent activities on the presences in social media are assigned to individual users, how long the operators store this data and whether data from a visit to the presences in social media are passed on to third parties, is not conclusively and clearly stated by the operators of the social media and is not known to us.

When you access our social media sites, the IP address assigned to your end device is transmitted to the operator of the respective social network. The social networks also store information about the end devices of the users (e.g. as part of the “login notification” function); if necessary, the operators of the social media are thus able to assign IP addresses to individual users.

If you as a user are currently logged in to the respective social network, a cookie with your individual identification in this social network is located on your end device. This enables the operator of the social network to track that you have visited a certain page and how you have used it. Based on this data, content or advertising can be tailored to your previous website visits.

If you want to avoid this, you should log out of the respective social network or deactivate the “stay logged in” function, delete the cookies present on your device and close and restart your browser. In this way, login information via which you can be directly identified is deleted. This allows you to use our social media presence without revealing your user ID. When you access interactive features of the site (like, comment, share, message, etc.), a login screen will appear. Once you have logged in, you will again be recognisable to the social network you are using as a specific user.

Information on how you can manage or delete existing information within the social network can be found on the support pages of the respective social network mentioned above.

10.2   Data processed by us

10.2.1   Type and scope of data processing

The data you enter on social networks, in particular your user name and the content published under your account, are processed by us insofar as we respond to your messages, if applicable. In addition, your published posts, ratings and comments refer to your account on the respective social network. If you mention us via an @ or a # or similar, this mention will be published under your user name on our page, if applicable. The data freely published and disseminated by you on the respective social network may thus be included by us in our offer and made accessible to other users of the respective social network. If you mark our appearance in the social media with “Like” or “Follow” or a similar interaction, this will be communicated to us by the respective social network with your user name and link to your account.

10.2.2   Legal basis of processing

The data processing on our part is based on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest results from the advertising function of social media. We use these to increase the level of awareness of our company.

10.2.3   Purpose of the processing

The data you provide in this context and which may be accessible to us (e.g. user name, pictures, interests if applicable, contact data) are processed by us exclusively for the purpose of customer and prospect communication. Our legitimate interest is to provide you with a platform on which we can display up-to-date information and with the help of which you can address your request to us and we can respond to your request as quickly as possible.

10.2.4   Duration of storage

As far as we are able, your data will be deleted when our social media presence is discontinued.

11     Service providers from third countries

In order to be able to provide our services, we use the support of service providers from third party countries (non-EU countries). In order to ensure the protection of your personal data in this case, we conclude processing contracts with each – carefully selected – service provider. All of our processors provide sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures. Our third country data processors are either located in a country with an adequate level of data protection (Art. 45 GDPR) or provide appropriate safeguards (Art 46 GDPR).

Adequate level of protection: The provider comes from a country whose level of data protection has been recognized by the EU Commission. For more information, see: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/data-transfers-outside-eu/adequacy-protection-personal-data-non-eu-countries_en

EU standard contract clauses: Our provider has submitted to the EU standard contractual clauses to ensure secure data transfer. For more information, see: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2021/914/oj?uri=CELEX%3A32021D0914&locale=en

Binding Corporate Rules: Article 47 of the GDPR provides the possibility of ensuring data protection when transferring data to a third country via Binding Corporate Rules. These are examined and approved by the data security authorities within the framework of the consistency mechanism pursuant to Art. 63 GDPR.

Consent: In addition, a data transfer to a third country without an adequate level of protection will only take place if you have given us your consent in accordance with Art. 49 sec. 1 lit. a) GDPR for this purpose.
