Thank you for your interest in the services of Scalable Capital GmbH, Seitzstraße 8e in 80538 Munich, e-mail: service@scalable.capital, registered in the Commercial Register of the Local Court of Munich under HRB 217778 ("Scalable Capital"). In the following, we would like to inform you about the collection, processing and use of personal data (collectively "data processing") in the context of the use of our social media pages.

Scalable Capital operates its own social media pages together with the operator of the following social media platform:

Please note that the operator of the respective social media platform on which our social media pages are operated is itself responsible for the processing of personal data that is generated when using these. Further information on the processing of your personal data by the operator of the respective social media platform can be found in section 2.2.

2. Processing of your personal data

2.1 Processing of your personal data by Scalable Capital

As the operator of the social media page, we process your actions and interactions on it when you visit. For example, we collect the content of your messages, posts or comments that you either address directly to us or leave on our site, as well as when you like or share posts. Depending on your profile settings, which you can adjust yourself in your settings on the social media platform, we process your publicly visible profile data such as your name, your profile picture and other information such as a profile description. Please note that we generally advise against transmitting or sharing sensitive data or confidential information (e.g. contract data, bank data) via social media platforms. Please use a secure means of transmission, e.g. letter or e-mail.
On our social media pages, we process the aforementioned data to provide information about our company and our services, as well as to communicate with our followers and interested parties (pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). We also use these channels to respond to your messages, requests, posts or comments that you send to us (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR).
Depending on the operator of the social media platform, they provide us with anonymous usage statistics or page insights data of our social media pages based on the actions and interactions of our followers with them. These statistics include, for example, likes, sharing of posts, comments, etc., number of followers, views of individual page sections, reach of a post, and statistics on followers by age, language, origin or interests. We use this information to contact our followers and interested parties, to analyse the use and reach of our posts, to evaluate content and to be able to design our social media pages to suit the target group as closely as possible. The creation of these usage statistics and the processing of the underlying data is carried out under the sole responsibility of the operator of the respective social media platform and without us being able to view personal data of individual followers or users. The processing is carried out on the basis of our aforementioned legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. We also use these anonymous usage statistics to target interest-based advertising within and outside the respective social media platforms. If you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in. This data processing is carried out on the basis of our aforementioned legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If, in the context of interest-based advertising, we were to carry out an extended comparison with customer lists to be uploaded by us to the respective social media platform, this would be done exclusively on the basis of consent granted by you for this purpose (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). Your personal data will be processed for as long as necessary for the aforementioned purposes. In the event of an objection to processing based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR), we will delete personal data unless its further processing is permitted under the relevant legal provisions. We also delete personal data if we are obliged to do so for other legal reasons. As a rule, we delete personal data immediately after the legal basis ceases to exist, if it is no longer required for the stated purposes or if the stated purposes cease to exist and if there is no other legal basis (e.g. retention periods under commercial and tax law).

2.2 Processing of your personal data by the operator of the respective social media platform

Please note that the operator of the respective social media platform is solely responsible for the processing of personal data on the platform on which we operate our social media pages. The operator of the platform usually processes personal data of you through your visit to one of our social media pages regardless of whether you have a user account on the respective social media platform or are logged in on the respective social media platform. Please note that, as a rule, cookies and other storage and, in some cases, cross-device tracking technologies are also used. Personalized usage statistics may be created, for example, for our own market research, advertising, other commercial or business purposes, and personal data may also be processed outside the European Union in the process. We have no influence on or access to these processing operations.

Further information on the processing of your personal data by the operator of the respective social media platform can be found in the information on data protection on the following websites of the respective social media platform
