Our contact details are available under Legal Notice (https://www.meatcracks.de/de/impressum/).
In addition, the operator of each of the social media platforms is also responsible for processing your personal data. Wherever we can exert our influence and parameterise the data processing, we shall work with the social media platform operators to handle the data in line with data protection regulations, within the scope of possibilities available to us. Please also take note of the data privacy statements of each of the social media platforms in this regard.
Our data processing
The data you enter on our social media sites, such as user name, remarks, videos, images, likes and public messages, for example, will be published by the social media platform and never processed by us for any other purposes. We merely reserve the right to delete contents, should this be necessary. Where appropriate, we share your contents on our site, if this function is available on the social media platform, and communicate with you over the social media platform.
If you use a social media platform to send us a request, we may refer to other, more secure, communication methods that ensure confidentiality, depending on the contents of the request. For example, you may, at any time, send your enquiries to the address or e-mail address indicated in the Legal Notice (https://www.meatcracks.de/de/kontakt/meat-cracks/). Therefore, you are solely liable for choosing the appropriate communication method.
The legal basis for processing your data is Art. 6(1) paragraph 1(f) GDPR. The data processing takes place in the legitimate interest of performing public relations work for our company and communicating with you.
Certain social media platforms generate statistics created from usage data that contain information about your interaction with our social media site. We have no influence over how these statistics are generated or provided, nor can we disable them. On the other hand, we do not apply any of the social media platforms’ optional statistics.
We process this information in accordance with Art. 6(1) paragraph 1(f) GDPR in the legitimate interest of validating how our social media sites are used and of improving our contents for specific target groups.
If you would like to object to certain data processing over which we exert control, please contact us using the contact details indicated in the Legal Notice.
Storage period
We delete your personal data when they are no longer required for the aforementioned processing purposes and there is no legal obligation preventing erasure.
Data processing by the social media platform operator
The social media platform operator employs web tracking methods. Web tracking may also take place regardless of whether or not you are signed in or registered with the social media platform.
Therefore, we would like to inform you that it is possible that the social media platform provider may use your profile and behavioural data to analyse your habits, personal relationships and preferences, for example. In this respect, we have no control over the processing of your data by the social media platform provider; therefore, you are solely liable for using the social media platform.
Further information about data processing by the social media platform providers, setup options for protecting your privacy and other options for objecting, as well as any agreements that may be available and in place in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR, can be found in the providers’ data privacy statements:
