Purposes and Legal Basis

Our data processing related to our LinkedIn company page is carried out in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) based on our legitimate interest in public relations and communication.

Representation of Content

If SecondSol's content contains personal data (e.g., names or photos), we will inform the respective individuals about the publication and processing on this page when collecting the data and, if necessary, obtain their consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, § 25(1)(1) German Federal Data Protection Act (TTDSG)). If this is not the case, we process the personal data of the respective user for the operation of this presence. We process this data based on our predominant legitimate interest in providing relevant content to our users and followers on the LinkedIn platform and enabling them to use our LinkedIn page and its functionalities (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

User Communication

Information that users share with us in direct messages through the LinkedIn page (e.g., username, name, profile picture, contact details, or a message to us - "communication data") is processed to effectively handle the user's inquiries or to communicate with the user in that regard. The legal basis for data processing in this case is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

SecondSol retains the communication data for as long as it is necessary for communication purposes. Additionally, we only store your communication data to pursue or defend against legal claims or to fulfill any legal retention obligations.

Community Function

Users of the fan page can also choose various integrated community functions to interact with us, such as posting posts on our "wall," leaving comments, or "liking" and sharing posts. When you use the community functions, we process your username, profile picture, active click interactions with our posts ("likes," "shares," etc.), as well as your comments, posts, and other content you provide to us on the fan page ("community data"). We process all community functions to provide users with the community functions as intended. Without this data, we cannot provide you with the corresponding community functions. The legal basis for processing is our predominant legitimate interest in providing you and other users of our fan page with your content and the fan page and its functionalities (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We process your personal data only for as long as necessary, typically as long as we operate our fan page or as long as your active action on our fan page is present. Additionally, we store your community data only to pursue or defend against legal claims or to fulfill any legal retention obligations.
