If we open a profile or channel on a platform, the operator sets cookies (explanation, see above) as soon as a user visits the profiles or channels. The platform operators use cookies or other technologies to collect personal data from users in order to evaluate user behavior. This applies in particular if you are already registered on these platforms. You can find more detailed information on this in the respective data protection information of the platforms.
We only receive evaluations of the use of our content from the operators of the platforms in non-personal form, which are used for the analysis of user behavior for statistical purposes. This enables us to better tailor our offers to the needs and interests of the target group.
We can use the filters provided by the operators of the platforms to select the categories of data according to which the operators provide visitor statistics in aggregated form. The operators provide us with the following criteria or categories to evaluate the activities of our content in aggregated form, provided that the corresponding information has been provided by the user or is collected by the operator.

We have no influence on the data protection regulations of a platform or the collection, analysis and use of user data.

Facebook generally stores cookies on users' devices, in which the usage behavior and interests of the users are stored. The user data processed in this way is used in particular for market research and advertising purposes. Among other things, user profiles are created from the usage behavior and the resulting interests. These can be used, for example, to display interest-based advertising within and outside of Facebook. In addition, data can also be stored in the user profiles independently of the devices used by the users, especially if the users are logged in as registered members of Facebook.
This data processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (information about our products and services; communication with users).
If requests for information or other data subject rights are asserted in accordance with the GDPR, we would like to point out that these should be asserted most effectively with Facebook or Instagram. As the operator of the fan page, we generally have no access to the data processed by Facebook itself. Although we and Facebook are considered joint controllers within the meaning of the GDPR, only Facebook as the provider can access user data and therefore provide full information or fulfill other obligations, such as user requests for deletion.
As a Fanpage operator, we cannot guarantee that all data subject rights can be enforced against Facebook or that user data will not be processed outside the European Union.
For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing, your rights as a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and your objection and setting options to protect your personal data on Facebook, please refer to Facebook's privacy policy: Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland - Privacy Policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.
