If no legal or contractual retention periods are to be observed, your request will be stored for a maximum of two years by the responsible party as proof of proper processing.

6. Links to external platforms

Our website contains links to some of our online profiles on the social media and blog/publishing platforms listed below. By implementing a simple linked graphic or text link instead of plug-ins, we prevent data from the respective platforms from being processed when merely visiting our website. A connection to the respective platform is only established when a corresponding link is clicked. Calling up one of the respective platforms via the link buttons is voluntary and constitutes a declaration of consent.

As soon as you are redirected to a platform, data is collected and processed by the responsible provider. This includes usage data (e.g. access times, pages visited) as well as communication data (e.g. IP address, device information). If you have a user account with the relevant platform provider and are logged in when you click on the relevant link on our site, the provider may collect and process further personal data such as name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, but also content data such as images, videos or text entries and assign this data to your personal user account.

To prevent your data from being linked to your personal user account, you must ensure that you are either logged out of the relevant platform or have adjusted your user account settings accordingly before clicking on the relevant link on our website.

Please note that your user data may also be processed outside the EU (e.g. in the USA). This may lead to increased risks for you, e.g. with regard to later access to this data. They can also not be viewed by us. The access option lies exclusively with the platform operator. Requests for information or the exercise of data subject rights are therefore best addressed directly to the platform operator.

Please refer to the data protection statements of the individual providers for information on the applicable data protection provisions, including the specific types of data processing, or on the options for objecting.
