Privacy policy for the social media sites used by Medinix Information Systems GmbH.
Medinix Information Systems GmbH maintains publicly accessible profiles in various social networks. Please note that when you access our profiles, personal data of you, such as the IP address and - if you are logged in - also the interaction with us and our posts, will be processed by the respective providers of the social media.
The purpose of this privacy policy is to provide you with an overview of which of the personal data collected from you is processed by us and the respective platform and which rights you are entitled to.
In principle, you will also find all important information about our company on our website. You are not obliged to use social media to interact with us.
However, interaction with us on our social media is only possible if you transfer certain personal data to the provider.
When you visit our social channels, your personal data is collected, used and stored by the operators of the respective social network. A small part of the collected data is also transmitted to Medinix Information Systems GmbH in order to be able to interact with you on the one hand and to obtain statistical information on the use of our social channels on the other.
The collection of personal data by the service providers also takes place if you, as a visitor to the respective page, do not have a profile in the respective social network yourself. The individual data processing operations and their scope differ depending on the operator of the respective social network. For details about the collection and storage of your personal data as well as the type, scope and purpose of their use by the operator of the respective social network, please refer to the privacy statements of the respective operator:
· Linkedin: https://de.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy
· Xing: https://privacy.xing.com/de/datenschutzerklaerung
· Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy
· Instagram: https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policy
Our data protection declaration contains general information on data protection in the first part and then goes into specific detail on the individual social media used.
I. General information on data protection
1. Responsible
Responsible for the operation and the personal data transmitted and aggregated via the respective social media sites is:
Medinix Information Systems GmbH
Rickertstr. 26
66386 St. Ingbert
E-mail: info@medinix.com - Phone: +49 68948949060
You can reach our data protection officer by e-mail at datenschutz@medinix.com.
2. Notes on the use of social media channels
Medinix Information Systems GmbH operates several social media sites as shown in the imprint. In doing so, we can generally view the information that you can call up in your public user profile, insofar as you have made a corresponding registration on the social media site.
In addition, the providers provide us with further anonymous usage statistics, which we use to improve our profile and to evaluate the visits made on the profile.
You can find more detailed information for each provider in the respective section of this privacy policy.
The personal data accruing in the context of the use of the respective social media will initially always be processed by the respective provider of the social network. This provider will collect, store and process the data for the operation of the platform (e.g. display and interaction with the posts, transmission of direct messages, user profile of the user).
In the course of our user profile, the respective provider transmits personal data to us in some cases. The data transmitted to us can be found in the following sections on the individual social networks.
The operation of the profiles in the social networks is necessary for a common exchange about our services. The associated processing of your data when visiting the site is done for this purpose. This is data processing in the legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
The additional information provided to users by social media is based on the changing social ways of obtaining information. Information via social media is intended to reach users who obtain most of their information from social media.
Of course, essential information will continue to be published via "classic" channels such as the company's own homepage, which is why the person concerned is free to choose the source of his or her information .
We ourselves will use our social media channels to educate about your work and to interactively engage with media users.

II. Special information on the use of LINKEDIN
1. Person responsible for LINKEDIN and aspects of joint responsibility
Responsible for the processing that takes place on the platform is the
LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland
Email or contact form: https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/ask/PPQ?lang=de.
Since LINKEDIN also processes the data on its own servers of the parent company LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA and also transfers the data to the USA, the processing thus also takes place in a third country for which no adequacy decision of the European Commission exists. Therefore, the usual level of protection for the DSGVO cannot be guaranteed for the transfer, as it cannot be ruled out that in the third country, e.g. authorities can access the collected data. We have concluded standard data protection clauses with LINKEDIN. Likewise, LINKEDIN has further guarantees to ensure an appropriate level of data protection. You can find more information here: https://de.linkedin.com/legal/l/dpa.
You can contact LINKEDIN's data protection officer using the contact form on the following pages. Please note that the message sent via this contact form may not only be received by the data protection officer:
https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/ask/TSO.
In addition, you may also contact LINKEDIN's Privacy Officer by mail at the following address: LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.
With regard to the use of the social media service LINKEDIN, there is joint responsibility with respect to the use of individual functions by Medinix Information Systems GmbH. In addition to LINKEDIN, Medinix Information Systems GmbH is also responsible for these functions. The basis is the usage agreement between Medinix Information Systems GmbH and LINKEDIN.
2. Used functions at LINKEDIN
LINKEDIN maintains various features through which users can interact on LINKEDIN. Through these particular features, LINKEDIN sends us, or makes available to us in our LINKEDIN user menu, certain personally identifiable information on our behalf. Interaction with us or our posts on LINKEDIN's platform is only possible if you are registered with LINKEDIN.
Below, we explain what data LINKEDIN provides to us and how we process this data:
2.1. List of functions and transmitted data
a) Direct Message(s): LinkedIn notifies us when users have sent us a direct message or support request via LinkedIn and delivers this message to us. The purpose of the data processing is to process the specific contact request received through the direct message.
b) Push notifications: Push notifications allow us to deliver messages to users, provided they have given their prior consent to LinkedIn. For this purpose, users inform LinkedIn of their willingness to receive push notifications by giving their active consent in a browser window or in an app or in the operating system of the end device. LinkedIn records these end devices or users in a database under a specific ID. By triggering a push notification function under a specific assignment, LinkedIn then delivers the message defined by us to the users matching in the database. We only receive anonymized statistical data about the assignment criteria and the effectiveness of the correctly delivered push notifications from LinkedIn. The purpose of the data processing is the delivery of the push notifications to a previously defined target group.
c) Ratings: Users can rate us and our facilities on LinkedIn. LinkedIn uses the data thus entered to display our rating key based on a star category. The rating is also displayed under our user account. LinkedIn sends us a message in case of user ratings and gives us the opportunity to publicly reply to the user. The purpose of the data processing is for us to respond to the rating and to publish the rating to other users.
d) Comments: Users can leave us a comment on our LinkedIn page. LinkedIn uses the data entered in this way to display the comment on our LinkedIn page. LinkedIn sends us a message when comments are made and gives us the opportunity to respond publicly to the user. The purpose of the data processing is to publish your comment on our LinkedIn page. We reserve the right to hide comments.
e) Job advertisements: For some job ads, you can apply directly via LINKEDIN. In our application form on LINKEDIN, you can enter your contact details and add application documents. These will then be transmitted to us by LINKEDIN. The data will be deleted by LINKEDIN after 6 months. We ourselves will delete the data 6 months after completion of the application process, unless a separate consent allows us a longer storage period.
2.2. Purpose of the use of the functions by Medinix Information Systems GmbH
Medinix Information Systems GmbH uses the data collected by LINKEDIN and partly transferred to Medinix Information Systems GmbH in order to be able to interact with users within the framework of the platform. In doing so, the possibilities of the social platform are deliberately used in order, for example, not to create a media break when contact is established by means of a private message.

The legitimate interest consists in an error-free function of the LINKEDIN platform.

IV. Special information on the use of INSTAGRAM
1. Person responsible for INSTAGRAM and aspects of joint responsibility
Responsible for the processing that takes place on the platform is the
Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, impressum@support.instagram.com, Fax: +1 650 543 5340.
Since INSTAGRAM also processes the data on its own servers of the parent company Meta Plattform Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA and also transfers the data to the USA, the processing thus also takes place in a third country for which no adequacy decision of the European Commission exists. Therefore, the usual level of protection for the GDPR cannot be guaranteed for the transfer, as it cannot be ruled out that in the third country, e.g. authorities can access the collected data. We have concluded standard contractual clauses with Meta. You can find more information here: https://www.facebook.com/legal/EU_data_transfer_addendum.
With regard to any joint responsibilities that may exist, we have also entered into the agreements set out at https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum.
You can contact Meta's data protection officer using the contact form on the following pages. Please note that the message sent via this contact form may not only be received by the data protection officer:
https://www.facebook.com/help/contact/540977946302970.
In addition, you may also contact INSTAGRAM's Privacy Officer by mail at the following address: Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Instagram's privacy policy can be found at https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policy/.
With regard to the use of the social media service INSTAGRAM, there is a joint responsibility with regard to the use of individual functions by us. In addition to INSTAGRAM, medinix Information Systems GmbH is also responsible for these functions.
2. Used functions at INSTAGRAM
INSTAGRAM maintains various features through which users can interact on INSTAGRAM. Through these special features, INSTAGRAM sends us certain personal data on our behalf or makes it available to us in our INSTAGRAM user menu.
In the following, we explain which data INSTAGRAM makes available to us and how we process this data:
2.1. List of functions and transmitted data
(a) Direct Message(s): Instagram notifies us when users have sent us a direct message or support request via Instagram and delivers that message to us. The purpose of the data processing is to process the specific contact request received through the direct message.
b) Push notifications: Push notifications allow us to deliver notifications to users if they have given their prior consent to Instagram. For this purpose, users inform Instagram of their willingness to receive push notifications by giving their active consent in a window that appears or in an app or in the operating system of the end device. Instagram records these end devices or users in a database under a specific ID. By triggering a push notification function under a specific association, Instagram then delivers the message to the users matching in the database. We only receive anonymized statistical data about the attribution criteria and the effectiveness of the correctly delivered push notifications from Instagram. The purpose of the data processing is to deliver the push notifications to a pre-determined target group.
c) Live chat / group chat: Instagram notifies us when individual or multiple users have opened a chat and provides us with a chat form through which we can exchange messages with the users. The purpose of the data processing is to process the specific contact request received through the live chat.
d) Comments: Users can leave us a comment on our Instagram page. Instagram uses the data entered in this way to display the comment on our Instagram page. Instagram sends us a message when comments are left and gives us the opportunity to publicly respond to the user. The purpose of the data processing is to publish your comment on our Instagram page. We reserve the right to delete or hide comments.
e) Surveys: The data you enter in a survey on Instagram is displayed to us by Instagram as a pseudonymized opinion of the survey. The purpose of the data processing is the networking of Instagram users and the exchange of media content individually or in a defined community.
f) Advertising: Through the advertising function, we can have Instagram serve targeted advertisements to other users. In advance, we can specify a target group in the Instagram user menu based on certain abstract criteria. After the advertisement has been delivered by Instagram, Instagram compiles anonymous statistics for us that show the effectiveness of the advertising measure as well as the primarily targeted group. The purpose of the data processing is to deliver the advertising to abstractly determined users and to network Instagram users to share with each other and create and share media content individually or in a defined community or openly in society.
g) Livestream/Live Videos: Instagram allows us to send a live video to participating users. In doing so, we receive information from Instagram about the corresponding target group during the livestream. The purpose of the data processing is to establish the concrete video transmission, as well as the optimization of our live stream offer.
2.2. Purpose of the use of the functions by medinix Information Systems GmbH
medinix Information Systems GmbH uses the data collected by INSTAGRAM and partly transmitted to medinix Information Systems GmbH to be able to interact with users within the framework of the platform. In doing so, the possibilities of the social platform are deliberately used in order, for example, not to create a media break when contact is established by means of a private message.
The publication of posts, comments, surveys, videos and advertising as well as participation in group chats, live chats and livestreams / live videos primarily serve to interact with users interested in our media offering.
The surveys are used to map current opinion and to identify trends, statistics and interests and, in addition to general statistical collection away from the platform, represent a further indication of the working methods and orientation of medinix Information Systems GmbH.
2.3. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
For registered users, the legal basis for the functions used is Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. b DSGVO (contract). By registering, a user relationship is concluded with regard to the use of the platform and the functions available there. The INSTAGRAM terms of use, which are part of the contract, can be found at: https://de-de.facebook.com/help/instagram/581066165581870. The functions cannot be used by users without an INSTAGRAM account.
The legal basis with regard to the general operation of the profile operated by us and the transfer of individual data records to medinix Information Systems GmbH is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO (legitimate interest), unless you are registered or logged in to INSTAGRAM. The legitimate interest consists in an error-free function of the INSTAGRAM platform.
2.4. Revocation and cancellation options
The revocation and deletion options are based on the general regulations on the right of revocation and deletion under data protection law described below in this data protection declaration.
2.5. Duration of storage
The deletion of the data provided to us by INSTAGRAM will take place as soon as it is no longer required for the above-mentioned purpose or the user account concerned has been deleted.
2.6. Necessity of providing personal data
The information is neither contractually nor legally required and is not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. If you do not fill in the existing mandatory fields or do not fill them in completely, you will not be able to use the corresponding functions of INSTAGRAM. You can also contact us via other channels, such as by e-mail or via our website.
