https://www.facebook.com/policy.phpAs a rule, personal data on the company’s page in the respective social network is processed for market research and advertising purposes. For this purpose, a cookie is stored in your browser, which enables the respective provider to recognise you when you visit a website. User profiles can be created using the collected data. These are used to place advertisements within and outside the platform that presumably correspond to your interests. Furthermore, data can also be stored in the user profiles regardless of the devices you use. This is usually the case if you are a member of the respective platforms and are logged on to them. Cookies can only be set on the basis of consent in accordance with the first sentence of Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR.
We ourselves collect personal data when you contact us, e.g. via contact form or through a messenger service such as Facebook Messenger. Which data is collected depends on your details and the contact details you have provided or released.
These are stored by us for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. Under no circumstances will we pass the data on to third parties without your consent. The legal basis for the processing of the data is our legitimate interest in answering your request in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR, and, if applicable, Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR, if your request is aimed at the conclusion of a contract.
Your data will be deleted after the final processing of your inquiry, provided that this does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations. We assume that a matter has been conclusively processed if the circumstances indicate that the matter in question has been finally clarified.
If your communication with us via a social network or other platform is aimed at the conclusion of a contract for the delivery of goods or the provision of services with us, for example the sending of a whitepaper, we will process your data for the purpose of fulfilling the contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures or for the provision of the requested services. The legal basis for the processing of your data in this case is Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR. Your data will be deleted if it is no longer required for the execution of the contract or if it is clear that the pre-contractual measures do not lead to a conclusion of contract corresponding to the purpose of the contact. Please note, however, that even after conclusion of the contract it may be necessary to store personal data of our contractual partners in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.
If you are asked by the respective providers of the platforms to give your consent to the processing for a specific purpose, for example to subscribe to a newsletter, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1)(a) and Art. 7 GDPR.
We embed YouTube videos on our website. These are hidden and can only be viewed by clicking the “Load video” button. The YouTube privacy policy, which is linked above the button, then applies.
Please note that, due to the use of the social media platforms, data processing may take place outside the EU and the European Economic Area, so that the European data protection level cannot necessarily be guaranteed. It cannot be ruled out that providers based in the EU may transfer your data to the USA for further processing. The processing of your personal data in social networks or platforms, including the transfer of your personal data to the operator of the platform in the USA, takes place on the basis of your (implied) consent in accordance with the first sentence of Art. 6 (1)(a) and the first sentence of Art. 49 (1)(a) GDPR.
mementor expressly points out that in the case of an insecure third country (USA), it cannot be guaranteed that the data protection regulations of the General Data Protection Regulation will be observed when processing your personal data. In particular, the operator may be forced to disclose your personal data to authorities and other state institutions due to legal requirements in the respective third country.
We have no influence on the processing and handling of your personal data by the respective providers, and we do not have any information on this. For further information, please check the privacy policies of the respective providers mentioned above.
