Sharing of Personal Data

Specialized service providers sometimes support us in operating our social media presence. To achieve the purposes stated above, it is sometimes necessary to share personal data with these recipients to the extent necessary (e.g., when responding to or replying to posts or in legal disputes). These recipients may be contractors (e.g., specialized social media agencies) or, in rare cases, third parties (e.g., lawyers). In any case, contractual arrangements have been concluded with the recipients to ensure compliance with data protection regulations. It is conceivable that social network providers headquartered in the USA (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok) also process some of the collected information outside the European Union. To ensure an appropriate level of data protection, these platform providers base such data transfers on the European Union's standard contractual clauses.

Rights of the data subject on the social media and other platforms

You can request information about the processing of your data on each platform from each respective social media or other platform.
