You have the opportunity to create your own comments and, if necessary, posts on the social media platforms provided by Exolink and Adacor. Please also note the individual data protection notices of the respective social media platform operators.

Adacor operates company profiles on the social media platforms of Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as “Facebook”) at https://www.facebook.com/Exolink.API/, https://www.instagram.com/exolink_api_platform/, https://www.facebook.com/adacor.group and https://www.instagram.com/adacor.group/ (also known as “fan pages”). If you call up Exolink's and Adacor's company profiles, Facebook collects the personal usage data described under this link.

Adacor does not receive this usage data directly, but only from Facebook in a summarized form via the Facebook tool “Page Insights” (https://de-de.facebook.com/business/pages/manage and https://de-de.facebook.com/legal/terms/information_about_page_insights_data) ("Insights Data"). Adacor cannot assign Insights data to individual persons.

Without Adacor's company profiles, Facebook would not be able to collect usage data. Adacor and Facebook are therefore jointly responsible for processing the usage data. This means that Facebook and Adacor process this data with the common purpose of getting to know the user behavior of the users of the Adacor fan page. Facebook, as the operator of the platform, collects detailed usage data from you; Adacor only receives aggregated Insights data from Facebook. Therefore, only Facebook makes the decisions about the processing of your usage data in connection with page insights. In the event of such joint responsibility, the EU General Data Protection Regulation requires that a special contract be concluded with Facebook. This contract is available at: https://de-de.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum. The contract contains further details and explanations of our shared responsibility with Facebook in the context of Page Insights. Especially with regard to inquiries regarding your rights as a data subject, Facebook initially assumes the main responsibility internally. Further information regarding the collection and use of data as well as your rights and protection options against Facebook can be found at https://www.facebook.com/policy.php 

Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR (balancing of interests) is the legal basis for Adacor's participation in the processing of usage data. Adacor's interest here is the administration and improvement of the fan page as well as informing visitors to the fan page. Adacor does not need any other legal basis to process the aggregated Insights data, as this information does not constitute personal data. In order to communicate with you, we also process your Facebook user name and your comments if you have sent us messages yourself via the fan page or by direct message.

In order to provide the company profiles on the Facebook platforms, your personal data will be processed by Facebook Ireland Limited and sent to Facebook, Inc. in the USA (and other third countries, as under https://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php shown) transmitted.
