Cookies by LinkedIn
When you visit the LinkedIn page, LinkedIn may store information on your computer in the form of cookies. Cookies are small files that are transferred from an internet server to your browser and stored on its hard drive. Only the IP address is saved – no personal data. This information, which is stored in the cookies, allows us to automatically recognize you the next time you visit our website, making it easier for you to use. The legal basis for the use of cookies is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 (2) TDDDG.
Of course, you can also visit the LinkedIn page without accepting cookies. If you do not want your computer to be recognized the next time you visit, you can also refuse the use of cookies by changing your browser settings to “Reject cookies.” You can find out how to do this in your browser’s manual. However, if you refuse the use of cookies, this may limit your ability to use some areas of our website.

- Processing by DHB
LinkedIn provides us with statistical data through LinkedIn Insights. This application can help us to provide further information on the demographics, location, or consumer behavior of potential
Discover your customers. LinkedIn Insights examines who you’ve reached with your advertising message. The corresponding data can then be displayed either for all LinkedIn users or for a page’s fans, as well as for a specified custom audience. The insights then provide more detailed information:
- Demographic information: age, gender, relationship status, etc.
- Followers: Information about fans of other LinkedIn pages
- User location and language settings
- Telephone number
- Activity of the selected users
- Proportion of men and women
- Professions
- Route planner
According to LinkedIn, all data visible in Insights is aggregated and anonymous for advertisers. Consequently, no conclusions can be drawn about individuals. We use this data in aggregated form to make the posts and activities on our page more attractive for each user. For example, we use the distribution by age and gender for tailored communication and the prioritized visit times of users to optimize the time of posting to this LinkedIn page. Information about the type of device used by visitors helps us to adapt the visual design of the posts. In accordance with the LinkedIn Terms of Use, which every user agreed to when creating a LinkedIn profile, we can identify the page’s subscribers and fans and view their profiles and other information shared by you.
- Rights of users
You can assert your following data subject rights either directly with DHB or with LinkedIn:
Right to information:
You can request information from us as to whether and to what extent we process your data.
Right to rectification:
If we process your data that is incomplete or incorrect, you can revoke your consent at any time.
Request correction or completion from us.
Right to erasure:
You can request that we delete your data if we process it unlawfully or if the processing disproportionately interferes with your legitimate interests. Please note that there may be reasons that prevent immediate deletion, e.g., in the case of statutory retention periods.
Regardless of your exercise of your right to erasure, we will delete your data immediately and completely, unless there is a contractual or statutory obligation to retain it.
Right to restriction of processing:
- You can request that we restrict the processing of your data if
- You dispute the accuracy of the data, for a period of time that allows us to verify the accuracy of the data.
- The processing of the data is unlawful, but you refuse deletion and instead request a restriction of data use,
- we no longer need the data for the intended purpose, but you still need this data to assert or defend legal claims, or
- You have objected to the processing of your data.
Right to data portability:
You can request that we provide you with your data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and that you can transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from us, provided that
- we process this data based on your consent, which you can revoke, or to fulfill a contract between us, and
- This processing is carried out using automated procedures.
If technically feasible, you can request that we transmit your data directly to another controller.
Right of objection:
If we process your data based on legitimate interests, you can object to this data processing at any time; this would also apply to profiling based on these provisions. We will then no longer process your data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims. You can object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes at any time without giving reasons.
Right to complain:
If you believe that we are violating German or European data protection law when processing your data, you have the right to contact the supervisory authority responsible for you.
