Our Profiles in Social Networks
To actively communicate with users and provide information about our activities, we maintain several profiles on social networks, partly under joint responsibility with the operators listed below.
When users engage with our presences on the social networks mentioned below, we would like to point out that personal data may be processed by the operators of these social networks outside the European Union and the European Economic Area. This may pose certain risks for users, such as difficulties in enforcing data protection rights. However, we emphasize that the transfer of personal data occurs only when the conditions of Articles 44 et seq. of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) are met, particularly if an adequacy decision pursuant to Article 45(1) GDPR exists or standard contractual clauses pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) GDPR have been concluded. Additionally, agreements on joint controllers pursuant to Article 26 GDPR are established, provided the social network operators support this.
Furthermore, we draw attention to the fact that personal data of users are typically processed by the operators of social networks for their own market research and advertising purposes. Usage profiles generated from user behavior may be used to display interest-based advertisements outside the social networks. For this purpose, the operators usually place cookies on users' devices, allowing them to process device information, usage behavior, and user interests, even if the user does not have a profile on the respective network. For more information and details on possible objections, please refer to the privacy policies and additional notices of the respective social network operators, which we have linked below.
The following applies to the processing of personal data:
Data processing, insofar as it falls under our responsibility, is carried out for the purposes of providing information, communication, marketing, and reach measurement. The operation of social media presences is based on a legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, with the respective interests arising from the aforementioned purposes.
The storage of data processed by us occurs solely within the respective social network. In most cases, we have no influence over the specific storage duration, as it is determined by the social network providers. Information on this can be found in the privacy policy of the respective provider. Where we can influence the storage duration in individual cases, data is deleted after the purpose has been fulfilled, in compliance with legal retention periods.
Below, we inform you about the services and service providers we use, as well as network-specific information, including the respective responsible entities within the EU/EEA and those outside. No further data transfer occurs on our part.

Data subjects may request information about their personal data at any time and, if necessary, request correction, deletion, or restriction of processing, or object to processing. Additionally, they have the right to data portability. Furthermore, if data processing is based on consent, this consent can be revoked at any time with future effect. To exercise your rights, you can contact our Data Protection Officer at datenschutz[at]scoolio.de.
Additionally, according to Article 77 GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you suspect that the processing of your personal data is unlawful.
Regarding the exercise of data subject rights, we would like to point out that, for the most comprehensive measures, such requests should ideally be directed directly to the respective operator of the social network. Only the operators have access to all collected personal data of users and can therefore provide more information and take appropriate measures. If you require assistance in this regard, you may, of course, contact our Data Protection Officer at any time.
