The controller has an overriding legitimate interest in this data processing for the purpose of maintaining the functionality of its online services (Recital 49 of the GDPR).

16. Appearances in social media channels

The controller informs that it maintains independent online presences on social media channels for the purposes of advertising and communicating with customers. In these online presences, the customer's data may be processed outside the European Union, which poses an increased risk of data protection violations. These online presences are kept accessible in the technical environment of the respective social media operator. The social media operators then use the customer's visit to the online presence for their own purposes, in particular to display (interest-based) advertising. The social media operators use the visit to store ‘cookies’ on the customer's end device, to read existing cookies/identifiers, to infer the customer's interests from their usage behaviour and thus to enrich the usage profile created for the customer or identifier. The aim of this is to display interest-based advertising to the customer, which may also be displayed on third-party websites visited later. The processing of the customer's personal data is based on the overriding legitimate interests of the controller in the advertising measures and customer communication, which are protected by the freedom of acquisition (Art 6 StGG) and freedom of communication (ins. Art 10 ECHR, which also protects advertising measures) under convention and constitutional law. If the customers are users of the social media channels, the data processing may also be covered by the customer's consent. The controller informs the customer that it has no access to the customer's data. The controller therefore recommends that customers contact the respective social media channel directly if they wish to assert their rights to information, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and data portability. Users of social media channels can also make changes to their privacy settings themselves. The controller will support the customer in this if necessary.
