Privacy policy for our social media pages

When you visit our social media pages, it may be necessary to process data relating to you. We would therefore like to inform you below, in accordance with Article 13 of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO), about how we handle your data and about your rights resulting from this.

We, S+D METALS GmbH, operate the following social media sites:

- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/sdmetals/

- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sd_metals_gmbh  

You can find our contact details in the imprint

In addition to us, the respective operator of the social media platform is also responsible for the processing of your personal data. Insofar as we can influence this and parameterise the data processing, we work within the scope of the possibilities available to us to ensure that the operator of the social media platform handles the data in accordance with data protection. In this context, please also refer to the data protection declarations of the respective social media platform.

 

Data processing by us

The data you enter on our social media pages, such as user names, comments, videos, pictures, likes, public messages, etc. are published by the social media platform and are not processed by us for any other purpose at any time. We only reserve the right to delete content if this should be necessary. Where appropriate, we will share your content on our site if this is a feature of the social media platform and communicate with you via the social media platform.

Where you make a request to us on the social media platform, depending on the content, we may also refer you to other secure communication channels that guarantee confidentiality. For example, you have the option to send us your enquiries at any time:

By post:

or

by e-mail: info@sd-metals.com

The choice of the appropriate communication channel is your own responsibility.

The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The data processing is carried out in the legitimate interest of conducting public relations for our company and being able to communicate with you.

Some social media platforms create statistics based on usage data and contain information about your interaction with our social media site. We cannot influence the performance and provision of these statistics, nor can we prevent them. However, we do not make use of optional statistics from the social media platform.

We process this information in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO in the legitimate interest of validating the use of our social media pages and improving our content in a target group-oriented manner.

If you wish to object to certain data processing over which we have control, please contact us using the contact details provided in the imprint.

Storage period

We delete your personal data when they are no longer required for the aforementioned processing purposes and no legal retention obligations prevent deletion.

Data processing by the operator of the social media platform

The operator of the social media platform uses web tracking methods. The web tracking can also take place regardless of whether you are logged in or registered with the social media platform.

We would therefore like to point out that it cannot be ruled out that the provider of the social media platform uses your profile and behavioural data to evaluate, for example, your habits, personal relationships, preferences, etc. We have no influence on this. In this respect, we have no influence on the processing of your data by the provider of the social media platform, so that the use of the social media platform is your own responsibility.

You can find more information on data processing by the provider of the social media platform, configuration options for protecting your privacy as well as further objection options and, if available and concluded, the agreement in accordance with Art. 26 DSGVO in the provider's privacy policy:

Your rights as a user

As a website user, you have the possibility to assert the following rights both towards us and towards the provider of the social media platform, if the prerequisites are met:

Right to information (Art. 15 DSGVO):

You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data relating to you have been processed.

Right of access (Art. 15 DSGVO):

Right to rectification and erasure (Art. 16 and 17 DSGVO):

You have the right to request without undue delay the rectification of any inaccurate personal data concerning you and, where applicable, the completion of any incomplete personal data.

You also have the right to request that personal data concerning you be deleted without delay, provided that one of the reasons listed in detail in Art. 17 of the DSGVO applies, e.g. if the data is no longer required for the purposes pursued.

Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 DSGVO):

You have the right to request the restriction of processing if one of the conditions listed in Art. 18 DSGVO applies, for example if you have objected to the processing, for the duration of any review.
