This content may include graphics, videos, or social media buttons as well as posts relating to TU Berlin.</p><p>Please also note our <a href="/en/communication/news/social-media/data-privacy-policy-for-social-media">Data Privacy Policy for TU Berlin Social Media Profiles</a>.</p><p>We request your consent to show you individual content from any of the providers named above before any data is transferred. Your consent forms the legal basis for processing your data. If this is granted by you, this forms the legal basis for processing your data (within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-GDPR). The technical foundation for processing your declaration of consent is a cookie stored upon consent which you can delete at any time.</p><p>The display of embedded content from third-party providers requires that these providers process the IP address of your device, as they cannot send their content to your web browser without it. The processing of your IP address is therefore absolutely necessary for the presentation of these contents or functions.<br> We strive to only use content whose provider only uses the IP address to deliver content.</p><p>In addition: Third-party providers may use pixel tags (invisible graphics, also referred to as web beacons) for statistical or marketing purposes. Pixel tags enable information such as visitor traffic to our web pages to be analyzed. The pseudoynmous information may also be stored in the form of cookies on the user’s device and contain other technical information about the browser and operating system, linked websites, time of visit, and other information about the use of our website as well as linked to such information from other sources.</p></div><div id="c47974" class="frame frame--type-text"><a id="c56101"></a><header ><h3 >Social media links</h3></header><p>On our web pages we link to TU Berlin accounts or profiles on social media networks of the third-party providers listed below. We also offer the option to share our website content on the social media networks of the third-party providers listed below. The social media account is embedded via a share button for the respective network, preventing a connection from automatically being established to the respective server of the social network when visiting any of our web pages with such linked social media content, for instance in order to display a post on the respective network itself. Only by your active click on the corresponding graphic you will be directed to the service of the respective social network. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-GDPR).</p><p>Information about you is then collected by the respective network. Initially this includes data such as your IP address, the date, time, and page visited. We do not know if or how this data is processed in the USA.<br> If you are signed in to your user account with the respective social network, the network provider is able to attribute the collected information about your visit to your personal account. If you interact via the respective network’s “share” button, this information may be saved to your user account and published. If you would like to prevent the collected information from being directly associated with your user account, you must first sign out before clicking the button. You also have the option of configuring your user account accordingly.</p></div><div id="c48338" class="frame frame--type-text"><a id="c56104"></a><header ><h3 >Third-party social media providers</h3></header><p><strong>Facebook</strong><br> Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland, a subsidiary of Meta Platforms Inc., 1601 S.
