We maintain fan pages within various social networks and platforms with the aim of communicating with the customers, interested parties and users active there and informing them about our services. When operating the fan pages, we determine the means and purposes of processing the user data together with the respective platform operator.

Users may be asked by the respective social media providers for their consent to data processing. If you do not want the social media providers to process your personal data, please do not use our fan pages within the social media platforms.
