Management of our profile – in this case, we are in the position of controller and the social network operator in the position of processor. For this purpose, we may use services provided by the social network operator, such as "data file customs audiences" for audience management in advertising campaigns or "measurement and analytics" for measuring the performance and reach of advertising campaigns. This processing will occur if you interact with our profile or our campaigns. The following legal safeguards apply to the processing of personal data: https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/dataprocessing

The social network operator stores the obtained data about you and uses it for its own advertising, market research, and/or customization of its services and tools. We recommend that you always log out after using social networks. For more information regarding the processing of personal data by the social network operator and your rights, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with their processing conditions (listed above).
