Personal data is collected when contacting us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail). Which data is collected in the case of a contact form can be seen from the form in question. These data are stored and used exclusively for the purpose of answering your request or for contacting you and the associated technical administration. The legal basis for the processing of the data is our legitimate interest in answering your request in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 letter F (DSGVO). If your contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, an additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO. Your data will be deleted after the final processing of your enquiry. This is the case if it can be concluded from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified and provided that there are no legal obligations to retain data.

3. Use of social plug-ins

Ayuna Hub UG (limited liability) uses the social media plug-ins of Facebook (“Like-Button”), Pinterest, Google and Twitter. Through the plug-ins Ayuna Hub UG (limited liability) offers you the possibility to interact with social networks and other users. This enables Ayuna Hub UG (limited liability) to improve the website and make it more relevant to your interests. The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

When using the social plug-ins, Ayuna Hub UG (limited liability) uses the so-called two-click solution: When you access the Ayuna Hub UG (limited liability) website, no personal data is initially passed on to the providers of the plug-ins. Only if you click on the marked field of the plug-in will the plug-in provider collect your IP address and the information that you are visiting the website of Ayuna Hub UG (limited liability). In the case of Facebook, the IP address is anonymised immediately after collection, according to the information provided by the respective providers in Germany.

Ayuna Hub UG (limited liability) has no influence on the data processing procedures of the plug-in providers. Nor do we have any information on the deletion of the collected data by the plug-in provider.

Data is passed on regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and/or are logged in. If you are logged in with the plug-in provider, the data we collect from you will be directly allocated to your account with the plug-in provider. If you click on the activated button and, for example, link to the page, the plug-in provider will also save this information in your user account and publicly share it with your contacts. We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, as you can then avoid being assigned to your profile with the plug-in provider.

Accordingly, we use the Facebook Pixel to display the Facebook Ads placed by us only to those Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our online offer or who exhibit certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products determined on the basis of the websites visited) which we transmit to Facebook (so-called “custom audiences”). With the help of the Facebook pixel, we also want to ensure that our Facebook-Ads correspond to the potential interest of the users and are not annoying. With the help of the Facebook Pixel, we can also track the effectiveness of Facebook Ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether users are redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook Ad (so-called “conversion”).

The processing of data by Facebook takes place within the framework of Facebook’s Data Use Policy. Accordingly, general information on the display of Facebook Ads, in the Facebook Data Use Policy: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php.
