1. Controller for Data Processing

When you visit our Social-Media-Pages, data is processed both by us and by the responsible social media provider as the responsible party.

The respective provider of Social Media assumes the data protection obligations towards you as the user, such as information on data processing, and is the contact person for your rights. This follows from the fact that such provider has direct access to the relevant information on the Social-Media-Page and the processing of your data. However, you are also welcome to contact us https://www.cobot.me/en/imprint if this should become necessary and we will then forward the request to the respective provider if necessary.

2. Transmission of Data; Data Processing outside the EU

We only pass on data that we receive via the Social-Media-Pages to third parties in accordance with the provisions of this privacy policy and our privacy policy.

When using Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Medium data may also be processed outside the EU.

The US companies of Facebook/Instagram and Twitter are obliged according to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, i.e. an agreement with us referring to the compliance with certain data protection standards, to comply with data protection standards comparable to the standards in the EU. For more information please refer to: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/ALL/?uri=celex%3A32010D0087; https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/data-transfers-outside-eu/model-contracts-transfer-personal-data-third-countries_en.

By using Medium Services, you authorize Medium to transfer, store, and use your information in the United States and any other country where we operate. Where your data is disclosed to Medium’s processors, it is subject by contract to at least the same level of data protection as that set forth under https://medium.com/policy/medium-privacy-policy-f03bf92035c9.

With our Social-Media-Pages, we can communicate with you and provide you with interesting information. We may receive further data from you through your comments, shared images, messages and reactions, which we then process to answer or communicate with you. If you use Social Media on several end devices, a cross-device analysis of the data can take place.

Furthermore, the providers of the Social-Media-Pages may also use cookies and tracking technologies to analyse and improve their services.

Data processing takes place with your consent or for the purpose of answering your enquiry (Art. 6 (1) a, b GDPR) or on the basis of legitimate interests in improving the services and presentation to the outside world (Art. 6 (1) f GDPR).

Use of Page Insights and Cookies on Facebook

Facebook and we use the Page Insights function to process statistical data from users of our Facebook pages. (see also the agreement at: https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum). This involves the processing of data in the form of so-called ‘page insights’, which are described in more detail at https://www.facebook.com/business/a/page/page-insights.

Evaluations and statistics are generated in the form of page insights from the usage data of the Facebook pages, which support us in improving our marketing activities and our external presence. We may also learn about users and their behavior who interact with or use our Facebook Pages to display relevant content and develop features that may be of interest to them. These page statistics show us, for example, which people from certain target groups interact most with our Facebook Page or which content on the Facebook Page was visited, shared or licked when and how often. When classifying people into target groups, demographic data or data about the location of a person is also included in order to place targeted advertisements with these people. If you use Facebook on several end devices, a cross-device analysis of the data can take place. The data collected in this way is statistically processed and usually anonymous, i.e. we cannot establish any reference to the individual person.

Information on these page insights and data processing can be found, for example, in Facebook’s data protection statement at https://www.facebook.com/policy.php or at https://www.facebook.com/business/a/page/page-insights.

Facebook also uses cookies and storage technologies. More information can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/
