We use our LinkedIn Company Page to provide information about our company, our products and services, combined with the opportunity for users to interact directly with us. The legal basis is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest consists primarily in our business interest in sharing information about our company with customers, interested parties, applicants and third parties as well as being able to contact them.

If we publish images of persons, this is done with their consent (legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR) or on the basis of a contractual assignment of the rights of use (legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR).

We process personal data through our LinkedIn Company Page for the purpose of establishing contact, publicising our company and providing information. Our company processes your personal data when you use the messaging, commenting and posting functions. Your data will only be provided to authorities if there are overriding legal provisions.

When using LinkedIn, each user enters a direct contractual relationship with LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland. How LinkedIn processes user data can be viewed in their data protection information: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy?trk=homepage-basic_footer-privacy-policy. Please note that the possibility of user data being processed on systems outside the European Union cannot be ruled out. LinkedIn has undertaken to comply with EU data protection standards. Data will only be transferred to systems outside the EU if the requirements of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR are complied with.

Use of Page Insights
When a LinkedIn user visits, follows or engages with our LinkedIn page, LinkedIn processes personal data in order to make the page views available to us. In particular, LinkedIn processes data that the user has provided to LinkedIn in their profile, such as the position, country, industry, period of employment, company size and employment status. In addition, LinkedIn processes information about how a user has interacted with our company page, e.g. whether a user is a follower. Data processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests in customising our company profile for specific target groups. Conflicting legitimate interests of users (display of individual target group-optimised advertising) are not overriding.

Together with LinkedIn, we are a joint controller for the Page Insights in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. LinkedIn users are informed of this; the responsibility for data collection lies primarily with LinkedIn. A Joint Controller Addendum has been concluded with LinkedIn, which you can find here: https://legal.linkedin.com/pages-joint-controller-addendum.
