Definitions
The data protection statement of our company is based on the terms, which the European legislative and regulatory authority uses in the EU General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter called “GDPR”). Our data protection statement aims to be easy to read and to understand by general public as well as by our customers or business partners. To guarantee this we shall first explain the terms used.
We use in this data protections statement and on our internet homepage, inter alia, following terminology:
Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ('data subject'). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
Data subject
Data subject means any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the party responsible for the processing.
Processing
Processing means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.
Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.
Pseudonymisation
Pseudonymisation means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
Controller or the party responsible for the processing
Controller or the party responsible for the processing means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
Processor
Processor means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
Recipient
Recipient means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.
Third party
Third party means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.
Consent
Consent of the data subject means any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.
Rights of the data subject
As the party affected by the processing of your data, you may claim certain rights under the GDPR and other relevant data protection regulations. Under the GDPR, you are entitled to claim the following specific rights as the data subject:
Right of access by the data subject
You have the right to request information on the data we hold about you from us at any time. This information includes, but is not limited to, the categories of data we process, the purposes for which it is processed, the source of the data if not collected directly from you, and, if applicable, the recipients with whom we have shared your data. You can obtain a copy of your data from us free of charge. If you require additional copies, we reserve the right to charge you for these copies.
Right to rectification
You have the right to request that we rectify inaccurate data relating to you. We will take appropriate steps to keep the data we store and process on an ongoing basis accurate, complete and current, based on the most up-to-date information available.
Right to erasure
You have the right to request that we erase your data, as long as the legal requirements for this are satisfied. This may be the case under Art. 17 GDPR if:
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request that we restrict processing of your data if:
Right to data portability
You have the right to request that we transfer your data – if technically possible – to another responsible party. However, you may only enforce this right if data processing is based on your consent or is necessary for the performance of a contract. Rather than receiving a copy of your data, you may also ask us to submit the data directly to another responsible party specified by you.
Right to object
You have the right to object to the processing of your data at any time for reasons that arise from your particular situation, as long as data processing is based on your consent, on our legitimate interests or those of a third party. In this case, we will cease to process your data. This does not apply if we can show that there are compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, or if we need your data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Right to revoke the declaration of consent
You have the right to withdraw your given consent at any time.
Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), other data protection laws applicable in the Member States of the European Union or other provisions of a data protection nature. A list of the state data protection officers and their contact details can be found at the following link: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Service/Anschriften/anschriften_table.html (in German)
The data protection supervisory authority responsible for us is:
The Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information
Ludwig-Erhard-Str. 22
20459 Hamburg
Phone: +49 (0)40 42854-4040
Email: mailbox@datenschutz.hamburg.de
Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing of personal data, the Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR serves as legal basis.
In the processing of personal data required to fulfil a contract of which the data subject is a party, the Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which we are subject, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as legal basis.
If processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or of a third party, and if the interest, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not prevail over the first mentioned interest, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as legal basis for data processing.
Routine deletion and blocking of personal data
The controller processes (in this connection also: stores) the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of the storage or,
if the processing is required by the European legislative and regulatory authorities, or laid down in another law or regulation to which the controller is liable.
If the purpose of the storage ceases to apply, or if a storage period prescribed by the European directives and regulations or by any other relevant legislator expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.
Cooperation with processors and third parties
If we disclose data to other people and companies (processors or third parties) as part of our processing, transmit them to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this will only be done on the basis of legal permission (e.g. if the data is transmitted to third parties, as to payment service providers, in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the fulfillment of the contract), you have consented, a legal obligation provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosts, etc.).
If we commission third parties to process data on the basis of a so-called "order processing contract", this is done on the basis of Art. 28 GDPR.
Privacy in recruitment and in the application process
The controller collects and processes personal data for the purposes of the application procedure. The processing can also be done electronically. This is particularly the case where an applicant submits the corresponding documents to the controller by means of electronic communications, e.g. by e-mail. If the controller concludes a contract of employment with one applicant, the transmitted data are stored for the purpose of executing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If the controller does not conclude a contract of employment with any of the applicants, the application documents will automatically be deleted six months after the notification of letter of rejection, provided that deletion does not conflict with any other legitimate interests of the controller. In this context other legitimate interest means for instance a burden of proof in legal proceedings pursuant to the General Law on Equal Treatment (AGG).
Information on video surveillance in our properties
Video surveillance is a particularly intensive form of processing personal data. Almost everyone feels uncomfortable when they are under video surveillance. This is also referred to as "surveillance pressure". Not being exposed to this pressure is almost one of the basic human needs.
Another human need, however, is the desire for security. Individuals and communities, but also inanimate things such as objects and systems, derive great benefit from an environment that is free of security risks or dangers.
Video surveillance is subject to strict data protection requirements for good reasons. On the other hand, the security interests of the controller must also be fairly assessed. Because often these interests are not limited to the controller alone. Employees, interested parties, suppliers, customers, tenants, guests, visitors, etc. may also have a need for security, which can be satisfied by a moderate and sensible use of video surveillance.
Even if some of the following information is already mentioned elsewhere in this data protection declaration, we would like to list all the information in this section of the text as it can also be found in a detailed information sign for video surveillance (information sheet according to Art. 13 GDPR):
Name and contact details of controller and, if applicable, his representative:
To be found at the bottom of this Data Protection Statement.
Contact details of the data protection officer:
To be found at the bottom of this Data Protection Statement.
Purposes and legal basis of data processing:
Investigation and detection of criminal offences as well as other security-related events.
Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f EU General Data Protection Regulation.
Legitimate interests pursued:
Safety of employees, suppliers, guests, visitors, etc.
Protection of property, exercise of domiciliary rights.
Duration of storage or criteria for determining the duration:
In our properties, image data is usually deleted after 72 hours at the latest, insofar as the purpose of the storage has also ceased to apply at this time.
In doing so, we follow a recommendation of the independent data protection authorities of the federal and state governments (Data Protection Conference - DSK).
With a storage period of 72 hours, according to the DSK's justification, the supervisor can regularly pursue his security interests, while at the same time the interests of the data subjects worthy of protection remain protected.
If necessary, a special monitoring purpose may justify longer storage. However, this must be adequately justified.
Recipients or categories of recipients of the data (if data transfer takes place):
The data controller will not transfer the personal data to a third country or an international organisation.
Information on the rights of the data subject
See also the section "Rights of the data subject" at the top of this Data Protection Statement. For video surveillance in summary:
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, any data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes the GDPR (Art. 77 GDPR). The data subject may exercise this right before a supervisory authority in the Member State of his or her residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. In Hamburg, the competent supervisory authority is:
The Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information
Ludwig-Erhard-Str. 22
20459 Hamburg
Phone: +49 (0)40 42854-4040
Email: mailbox@datenschutz.hamburg.de
Security of personal data
Our company shall take numerous technical and organizational measures in order to protect your personal data against accidental or illegal destruction, alteration, loss, unlawful disclosure or unauthorized access.
Nevertheless, for instance internet-based data transfer can principally bear gaps in the security, and therefore absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, any data subject is free to communicate personal data to us in an alternative way, for instance by telephone.
Website Encryption
This site TLS-encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the requests you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http: //" to "https: //" and by the lock symbol in the browser line.
If encryption is activated, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Collection of general data and information
Our website collects a number of general data and information each time the website is accessed by data subject or an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. Following data can be collected:
When using this general data and information, our company does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. In fact, this information is needed in order:
This collected data and information is therefore evaluated by our company on the one hand statistically, and on the other hand to increase data protection and data security in our company, and last but not least to ensure the best possible level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by the data subject.
This data is not amalgamated with other data sources.
This data is recorded on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of his website - the server log files must be recorded for this.
Request by E-Mail, Phone or Fax
If you contact us by e-mail, phone or fax, your request, including all personal data resulting from it (name, request), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR, if your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this was queried.
The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - especially legal storage periods - remain unaffected.
Data transmission via web form
Data subject has an option to register on the website of the controller stating his or her personal data. During the registration process the respective entry windows indicate, which personal data are transmitted to the controller. The personal data entries made by the data subject are exclusively intended for internal use of the controller, this data is collected and stored for the purposes of own use. The controller can transmit the data to one or to several processor(s), e.g. to parcel service which also makes only internal use of the personal data and acts under the responsibility of the controller.
By registration on the website of the controller the following data is also stored: data subject’s IP address, which the internet service provider has assigned, the date and the exact time at the moment of the registration. These data are stored against the background of being the only way to prevent misuse of our services. If necessary, these data can enable clearing up offences or copyright infringements committed. Insofar it is necessary to store this data as to protect the controller. In general, these data are not transmitted to a third party, unless there is a legal obligation to a transmission, or the data transmission serves legal pursuit of rights or criminal prosecution.
When the data subject registers himself or herself on the website and voluntarily supplies personal data, it enables the controller to offer to him or her content and services, which can by the very nature of the issues only be offered to registered users.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR, if your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this was queried.
The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - especially legal storage periods - remain unaffected.
Links to other websites
Our websites contain links to other websites (so called external links).
Our company is as a supplier responsible for the contents of our own as required by the European and national legislation in force. Our own contents are to be distinguished from links to contents provided by other suppliers. We have no influence over whether or not operators of other websites comply with the European and national data protection regulations in force. Please learn more about the data protection statements on the websites of the respective suppliers.
Cookies
We use cookies in order to further improve our internet presentation for you, make it more user-friendly and to tailor it as well as possible to meet your needs. Cookies are small text data files, which a webserver sends to your internet browser when you visit a website. The cookies are stored locally on your terminal (personal computer, notebook, tablet, smartphone etc.).
Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain so called cookie ID, which is a unique identifier of the cookie. Cookie ID consists of a string of characters through which websites and servers can trace back the actual web browser, on which the cookie is stored. This allows the visited web pages and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other web browsers that contain other cookies. A specific web browser can be recognized and identified by the unique cookie ID. The purpose of this information is to automatically recognize you and to facilitate your navigation, when you visit the website again with the same device.
You can also consent or reject cookies - also for web tracking - via the settings of your web browser. You can configure your web browser so that it blocks cookies generally, or you will be warned in advance when a new cookie is about to be stored. In this case, however, the functionality of the website may be impaired (for example when placing orders). Your browser also offers a function to delete cookies (for instance by choosing “Clear browsing data”. This is possible in all common web browsers. Further information can be found in the user manual or in the settings of your browser.
First-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are permanent cookies that are stored on the computer and only lose their validity when the expiry date assigned to them has expired. The word "party" refers to the domain from which the cookie originated. In contrast to third-party cookies, first-party cookies usually come from the website operator itself. They are therefore not accessible to browsers across domains. For example, website A assigns a cookie A, which is not recognized by website B, but can only be recognized by website A. This means that data cannot be passed on to third parties.
Third-Party Cookies
With a third-party cookie, the cookie is set and recorded by a third party. These cookies are mostly used by advertisers who use their cookies on other websites to collect information about website visitors using the cookies. These are data records that are stored in the user's web browser when he visits a page with the advertisement. If he visits a page with advertising from the same provider again, he will be recognized.
Transient cookies
Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. These include session cookies in particular. These store a so-called session ID, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the joint session. This allows your computer to be recognised when you return to our website. The session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser.
Persistent cookies
Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete the cookies at any time in the security settings of your browser.
Cookiebot
A web service from Cybot A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, DK (hereinafter referred to as "Cookiebot") is loaded onto our website. Through Cookiebot we can inform you exactly and transparently about the use of cookies on our website. You will receive an up-to-date and data protection-compliant cookie notice and decide for yourself which cookies you want to allow.

Please note that the technical cookies are already saved when the website is accessed and that the relevant box is preset. If you deselect technical cookies, the use of the website or individual functions on the website may be restricted or even impossible.
If you allow cookies, the following data will be transmitted to Cybot:
The legal basis for the use of Cookiebot results from our legitimate interest in functional cookie management and is therefore in accordance with Article 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. A further legal basis results from the fulfillment of data protection law requirements in connection with cookies requiring consent (e.g. also through the "cookie judgment" of the European Court of Justice) and is therefore in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c GDPR.
If you consented to the use of cookies when visiting this website, you can revoke your consent by calling up Cookiebot (see below) and deselecting the relevant cookie category. In addition to the revocation option via Cookiebot, you can deactivate cookies directly with a cookie provider or prevent the processing of data by browser plug-ins.

Booking system OnePageBooking
We use the OnePageBooking service from HotelNetSolutions GmbH, Genthiner Strasse 8, 10785 Berlin for online room reservations. Clicking the corresponding button opens a browser window that redirects you to the OnePageBooking website.
If you would like to book a room with us, it is necessary for the conclusion of the contract that you provide your personal data, which we need to process your booking. Mandatory information required for the execution of the contracts is marked separately, further information is voluntary. The data is entered in an input mask and transmitted to us and saved.
Data is also passed on to the relevant payment service providers. The data will only be passed on to third parties if the transfer is necessary for the purpose of contract execution or for billing purposes or for collecting the fee or if you have given your express consent. In this regard, we only pass on the data required in each case. The data recipients are: the respective delivery / shipping company (transfer of name and address), collection agencies, insofar as the payment has to be collected (transfer of name, address, order details), payment institutions for the purpose of collecting claims, insofar as you have chosen direct debit as the method of payment and payment service providers - depending on the choice of payment method.
The legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Regarding the voluntary data, the legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR. There is a Data Protection Agreement between us and HotelNetSolutions GmbH.
The compulsory information collected is required to fulfill the contract with the user (for the purpose of providing the goods or service and confirming the content of the contract).

The voluntary information is provided to prevent abuse and, if necessary, to investigate crimes.
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Due to commercial and tax regulations, we are obliged to store your address, payment and order data for a period of 10 years after the contract has been carried out. However, after 6 years, we restrict processing, i.e. H. Your data will only be used to comply with legal obligations. If there is a permanent obligation between us and the user, we save the data for the entire term of the contract and for a period of ten years thereafter (see above). With regard to the voluntarily provided data, we will delete the data 6 years after the contract has been executed, provided that no further contract is concluded with the user during this time; In this case, the data will be deleted 6 years after the last contract has been carried out.
If the data is necessary to fulfill a contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures, the data can only be deleted prematurely unless there are contractual or legal obligations to prevent deletion. Otherwise, you are free to have the personal data provided during registration completely deleted from the data base of the person responsible. Regarding the voluntary data, you can revoke your consent to the person responsible at any time. In this case, the voluntary data will be deleted immediately.

Newsletter dispatch with Smart Host
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected, or only on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
The data entered in the newsletter registration form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

This website uses the services of Smart Host to send newsletters. The provider is Smart Host GmbH, Am Kupfergraben 6A, 10117 Berlin.
Smart Host is a service that can be used to organise and analyse the sending of newsletters, among other things. When you open an email sent with Smart Host, a file contained in the email (known as a web beacon) connects to the Smart Host servers. This makes it possible to determine whether a newsletter message has been opened and which links, if any, have been clicked on. Technical information is also recorded (e.g. time of access, IP address, browser type and operating system). This information is used exclusively for the statistical analysis of newsletter campaigns. The results of these analyses can be used to better adapt future newsletters to the interests of the recipients.
If you do not wish to be analysed by Smart Host, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message.
The data processing takes place on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the cancellation.
The data you provide us with for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and deleted from both our servers and the servers of Smart Host after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.
We have concluded a Data Processing Agreement (“DPA”) with Smart Host in accordance with Art. 28 Para. 3 GDPR. In this contract, we oblige this service provider to protect our customers' data and not to pass it on to third parties.

When Google Ads is used, the following data is collected and transmitted to Google in the USA: Data on the device and browser (host name, browser type, referrer, language), IP address and the respective user interaction on our website as well as on other websites on which our adverts are placed (e.g. which page a user visits or which adverts a user clicks on). In addition, a cookie is used to assign a random, pseudonymous ID to a user, to which the aforementioned information is assigned.
We also use conversion tracking as part of the Google Ads service. When you click on an advert placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your end device. These cookies lose their validity after 30 (our setting at Google) or a maximum of 90 days (according to Google itself), do not contain any personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification. The information collected with the help of the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics.
We have set up Enhanced Conversions for this purpose.
Enhanced Conversions is a feature that can improve the accuracy of conversion tracking while protecting user privacy by supplementing existing conversion tags with the hashed first-party conversion data from the website. Hashing the first-party data before sending it to Google Ads ensures data protection, as personal information such as (here: email address) is converted into a hashed / pseudonymised (SHA256) character string.
The legal basis for the use of Google Ads is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 Para. 1 TDDDG.
The data collected is stored and processed in the USA, i.e. a third country for which there is no adequacy decision by the European Commission.
However, Google bases the data transfer to the USA on the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework of the European Commission.
You can prevent the installation of these cookies by refusing your consent to the storage of these cookies when you enter the website, deleting existing cookies or deactivating the storage of cookies in the settings of your web browser. We would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of our website to their full extent. You can also prevent the storage of cookies by setting your web browser to block cookies from the domain ‘www.googleadservices.com’ (https://www.google.com/settings/ads ). We would like to point out that this setting will be deleted if you delete your cookies. You can also deactivate interest-based adverts via the link http://optout.aboutads.info . Please note that this setting will also be deleted if you delete your cookies.

Our social media presences
Data processing through social networks
We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The social networks used by us in detail can be found below.
Social networks such as Facebook, ‘X’, etc. can generally analyze your user behavior extensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). By visiting our social media presences, numerous data protection-relevant processing operations are triggered. In detail:
If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected under certain circumstances if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.
With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, you can be shown interest-based advertising inside and outside the respective social media presence. Provided you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising may be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.
Please also note that we cannot track all processing on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For details, please refer to the terms of use and data protection provisions of the respective social media portals.
Legal basis
Our social media presences are intended to ensure the most comprehensive presence possible on the Internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para 1 lit. f GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases, which are to be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR).
Controller and assertion of rights
If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights (information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both vis-à-vis us and vis-à-vis the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. vis-à-vis Facebook).
Please note that despite the joint responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence on the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider.
Storage period
The data collected directly by us via the social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies, you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.
We have no influence on the storage period of your data, which is stored by the operators of social networks for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).
We have a profile on Facebook. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as "Facebook"). According to Facebook, the collected data is also transferred to the USA and other third countries.
