2. General information about data processing related to social media platforms

In today’s digital environment, social media platforms have become the most important channels for communication. In addition to its website, the Data Controller aims to share up-to-date information, news, and events related to its operations and activities through its social media pages. These platforms enable more direct communication with interested individuals and allow the information published by the Data Controller to reach a wider audience.

Currently, the Data Controller operates the following pages and channels:

(Collectively referred to as the Social Media Pages or Social Media Page.)

Purpose of data processing

The purpose of processing personal data is to operate the Social Media Pages, and through these channels, to inform interested individuals about current news, events, and updates related to the Data Controller’s activities and operations.

Another purpose of operating the Social Media Pages is to allow users to express opinions or reactions regarding the information shared, ask questions, provide feedback, write reviews (in the case of the Facebook Page), or contact the Data Controller via private message.

The Data Controller is entitled to moderate content that violates the terms of use of the Social Media Page or social media platforms in general (i.e., remove such content from the page). If necessary, individuals who regularly and/or severely violate these terms may be banned from the Social Media Page. Therefore, another purpose of data processing is the moderation of such offensive content and the exclusion of individuals engaging in such activity.

The operator of each Social Media Page (see details below) provides the Data Controller with page analytics (or performance analytics, in the case of the Channel) (hereinafter: Page Insights). Page Insights display aggregated data, helping the Data Controller understand how users interact with its Social Media Pages.

The Data Controller reserves the right to organize promotions (e.g., contests) on its Social Media Pages. In such cases, a separate data protection notice will be issued specifically for the data processing involved in those promotional activities.

The Data Controller does not maintain any records outside of the Social Media Pages regarding individuals affected by data processing on the platforms or their activities. Personal data made public by individuals on the Social Media Pages is not processed in any other way or on any other platform by the Data Controller, and in general, such personal data is not used for any purpose other than those specified above.

Processed personal data

The Data Controller processes personal data on the Social Media Pages in the following cases:

  • When following / subscribing to / joining the Social Media Page, or when unfollowing / unsubscribing / leaving the Page: public data from the user’s profile (profile name, user ID);
  • In connection with any activity carried out on or related to the Social Media Page: data related to such activities, including writing a post or review, sharing a post, commenting on a post, reacting to a post (e.g., liking a post);
  • When initiating communication via private message with the Social Media Page: any information voluntarily disclosed by the data subject during the communication;
  • In the event of a violation of the terms of use of the Social Media Page or social media platforms in general, for the purpose of moderating infringing content or banning the data subject from the Social Media Page: data related to the infringing behavior and public profile data (profile name, user ID).

Personal data processed via Page Insights:

The Page Insights feature may rely on personal data collected by the operator of the Social Media Platform from visitors and users of the Social Media Page and its content. The scope of personal data used for these analytics is determined solely by the platform operator and is only visible to and processed by them. The Data Controller has no influence over the scope or processing of such data and has no control over how the platform operator handles this information.

When using the Page Insights feature, information is presented only in aggregated, statistical form and not on an individual basis. Therefore, the Data Controller does not process personal data in connection with Page Insights.

Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the processing is the Data Controller’s legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, that relates to the operation and moderation of social media sites.

Personal data related to the Social Media Page that appears on the data subject’s profile (e.g., posts made on the Facebook Page) may be accessed by others in accordance with the data subject’s own privacy settings. The scope of access (e.g., whether only friends or followers may see the content) is set by the data subject.

Personal data provided via private message is only accessible by the Data Controller.
Transfer of personal data to third countries or international organizations

The Data Controller does not transfer the above personal data to third countries or international organizations.
