Purposes and legal basis for the processing of personal data The purpose of the processing is the fulfilment of the public tasks assigned to us by the legislator, in particular the provision of information to the public in the context of press and public relations work. Unless otherwise stated, the legal basis for processing your data results from Section 3 (1) of the Hessian Data Protection and Freedom of Information Act (HDSIG) in conjunction with Article 6 (3) b of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO).

The technical operation of our data processing systems is carried out by ekom21. If necessary, we will transmit your data to the competent supervisory authority for the exercise of the respective control rights.

Your data will only be stored for as long as is necessary for the fulfilment of tasks, taking into account statutory retention periods.

If we process your personal data, you have the following rights as a data subject:

• You have the right to information about the data stored about you (Art. 15 DSGVO).
• If incorrect personal data is processed, you have the right to rectification (Art. 16 DSGVO).
• If the legal requirements are met, you may request the erasure or restriction of processing (Art. 17 and 18 DSGVO).
• If you have consented to the processing or if there is a contract for data processing and the data processing is carried out with the help of automated procedures, you may have a right to data portability (Art. 20 DSGVO).
• If you have consented to the processing and the processing is based on this consent, you can revoke the consent at any time for the future. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation is not affected by this.

You have the right to object to the processing of your data at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation if the processing is carried out solely on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR (Article 21(1)(1) of the GDPR).

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the possibility to complain about the processing of your personal data to the competent supervisory authority.

For more information on the processing of your data and your rights, you can contact us at presse@lkwafkb.de.

Our web server is operated by ekom21 - KGRZ Hessen with the help of Chamaeleon AG. The personal data you provide when visiting our website is therefore processed on our behalf by
Chamaeleon Aktiengesellschaft für innovative Netzlösungen

.

When you access this or other Internet pages, you transmit data to our web server via your Internet browser. The following data is recorded during an ongoing connection for communication between your internet browser and our web server:

• Date and time of the request
• Name of the requested file
• Page from which the file was requested
• Access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.)
• Web browser and operating system used
• Complete IP address of the requesting computer
• Volume of data transferred.

We use these server log files exclusively for statistical evaluations for the purpose of the operation, security and optimisation of the offer. The legal basis for the temporary storage of the access data and the server log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest lies primarily in guaranteeing and optimising our offer on the websites. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose of its processing.

We use active components such as Javascript, Java applets or Active-X controls. You can switch off this function by setting your internet browser.

This website uses so-called cookies, the scope and functionality of which are technically necessary to make our offer more attractive and to use certain functions. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your terminal device and stored by your browser.

The so-called "session cookies" are automatically deleted when you end your visit to our website or close the browser.

Other cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period of time, which may differ depending on the cookie. Alternatively, you can delete the cookies in the security settings of your browser at any time.

You can configure your browser settings according to your preferences and agree to accept cookies in individual cases or only in certain cases, or refuse to accept all cookies. We would like to point out that this may mean that not all functions of this website can be used.

When visiting our website, additional services from YouTube and social plugins (e.g. Twitter, Facebook and Google+) are offered via a so-called two-click solution. When the website is accessed for the first time, no data is transmitted to the operators. Only after the user has consented to the opt-in procedure by clicking on the appropriate button will data (including the URL of the current page and the user's IP address) be transmitted to the respective operator immediately and for each subsequent visit. As a user, you can thus decide for yourself whether you consent to the activation of these offers and the transfer of data. The user can revoke this consent at any time and prevent further data transmission to the operators by clicking on the corresponding link on the homepage (opt-in procedure). I am not quite sure if this applies to our website.

Our website uses Matomo(https://matomo.org/), an open source software to analyse visitor traffic to our website. Matomo uses so-called cookies, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about the use of this website is stored on our servers in Germany and is not passed on to third parties. You can object to the use of Matomo. We base the use of the aforementioned analysis tool on Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO: the processing is carried out to analyse user behaviour and is therefore necessary to protect our legitimate interests.

As part of our press and public relations work, photos will be taken at events and appointments in which you may be recognisable. You can object to the photos being taken and/or published. Please use the contact details above (at the beginning of A) for your objection.

The district of Waldeck-Frankenberg uses the technical platform and services of Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland for the information service offered here.

The district points out that users use this Facebook page and its functions on their own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g. commenting, sharing, rating).

The legal basis for the processing of data after interaction with the content of the Facebook fan page of the district by the users is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e DSGVO in conjunction with § 3 BDSG and, if the users have given their consent, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO.

The operation of the Facebook page of the district is important for a targeted and balanced public relations work of the district. The associated processing of users' data when visiting the page is done for this purpose.

This is data processing in the public interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(e) DSGVO. The Federal Constitutional Court ruled in 1977 that the public relations work of the district is not only constitutionally permissible, but also necessary, since democratic decisions require informed citizens. Further rulings came to the same conclusion.

Statistical studies show that the use of media and the information behaviour of citizens is changing. More and more, providers on the internet, especially social media platforms, are being used for information. One of the aims of the district's public relations work is to reach as many groups of the population as possible and to inform them within the framework of its constitutional mandate.

The district uses Facebook alongside other information channels. Citizens thus have the opportunity to find out about the work of the federal government and make contact in different places, but always with the same quality. You can find more information about our services at www.landkreis-waldeck-frankenberg.de .

When visiting this Facebook page, Facebook collects, among other things, your IP address as well as other information that is available in the form of cookies on the user's PC. This information is used to provide the district, as the operator of the Facebook pages, with anonymised statistical information about the use of the Facebook page. More detailed information on this is provided by Facebook under the following link: http://de-de.facebook.com/help/pages/insights

The data collected about you in this context is processed by Facebook Ltd. and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union. Facebook describes what information it receives and how it is used in its data usage guidelines. There you will also find information on how to contact Facebook and on the settings for advertisements. The data usage guidelines are available at the following link: http://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy. The complete Facebook data guidelines can be found here: https://de-de.facebook.com/full_data_use_policy

When a Facebook page is accessed, the IP address assigned to the user's end device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymised. Facebook also stores information about the end devices of its users (e.g. as part of the "login notification" function); this may enable Facebook to assign IP addresses to individual users.

If users are currently logged in to Facebook, a cookie with your Facebook ID is placed on their end device. This enables Facebook to track that users have visited this page and how users have used it. This also applies to all other Facebook pages. Facebook buttons integrated into websites enable Facebook to record visits by users to these websites and to assign them to the Facebook profile of the user. This data can be used to offer content or advertising tailored to users.

Those who wish to avoid this should log out of Facebook or deactivate the "stay logged in" function, delete the cookies present on the user's device and close and restart the browser. In this way, Facebook information that can directly identify users is deleted. This allows users to use the Facebook fan page without revealing their Facebook ID. When users access interactive functions of the page (like, comment, share, message, etc.), a Facebook login screen appears. After logging in, users are again recognisable to Facebook as users. Information on how to manage or delete information about users can be found on the following Facebook support pages: https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy#

According to its own information, Facebook stores data until it is no longer needed to provide the services and Facebook products or until the user's respective account is deleted, whichever comes first. This will depend on the circumstances of the individual case, in particular the nature of the data, why it is being collected and processed, and relevant legal or operational storage needs. More information on data storage is available at https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy.

Facebook processes a number of personal data of page visitors in its so-called page insights for its own purposes. The processing takes place regardless of whether page visitors are registered with Facebook or not and whether page visitors are members of the Facebook network. Users who access the Facebook pages without being registered or logged in to Facebook also have the option of influencing the scope of data processing by means of a cookie banner set by Facebook. More information on Facebook cookies can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/

Page insights are aggregate statistics generated from specific "events" that are logged by Facebook servers when people interact with pages and the content associated with them. Page operators themselves do not have access to the personal data processed as part of "events", but only to the aggregated, anonymised page insights. You can find more information at: https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum

Where personal data of users is processed, they have the right of access, rectification, opposition, portability and deletion of the data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation. Facebook Ireland has committed under the Page Insights Supplement to respond to data subject requests in accordance with Facebook's obligations under the Page Insights Supplement (available at https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum).

We forward users' requests for data processing when visiting a Facebook fan page to Facebook in accordance with the Insights Page Supplement. Users can find out more about their data protection rights at the following link: https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy

Alternatively, users can also access the information offered via the Facebook fan page on our website at www.landkreis-waldeck-frankenberg.de .

The district as provider of the information service does not collect or process any other data.

Users can find the current version of this data protection notice under "Data protection" on our Facebook page.
