2. Data categories
We only receive personal data from you when you actively click on something, e.g. when you like, post, share, comment or make other active contributions. We also receive your personal data when you use certain hashtags or when we share your Instagram posts.
Personal data we process is only the data that you publicly post on Instagram for us and other users to see ("Action Data") - e.g., your (user) name and the content published on your profile, if you have set this in your privacy settings on Instagram. We do not receive any Background Usage Data (such as your IP address or device number or any information you do not make public) or other "hidden" data either from you or from Meta.
Please do not share any special categories of personal information with us through Instagram, including, but not limited to, information about your health, religious beliefs, or sex life.
3. Processing purposes
We process the Action Data solely for the purposes pursued by you and us on Instagram:
- Presentation of contents on our Instagram Page and operating our Instagram Page, as well as
- Responding to your private messages addressed to us (“Direct Message”) and your public messages, responses or posts addressed to us on Instagram or our Instagram Page.
In particular, we do not profile you or mix the Action Data with any other data we have about you - unless you specifically request it.

5. Storage duration
We process your Action Data for the described purposes only as long as this is necessary, i.e. generally as long as we operate our Instagram Page or as long as your active action on our Instagram Page is online or until we have conclusively answered your Direct Message. Beyond that, we only store the Action Data to fulfill any legal retention obligations.
6. Data recipients

In individual cases, we pass on your Action Data to other controllers who process the personal data for their own purposes, insofar as this is necessary for the execution of the contract or the provision of services, e.g. in the context of raffles. These other controllers may use the data thus transmitted exclusively for the purpose for which we transmitted it. The transmission of your Action Data for these purposes is carried out for the fulfillment of the contract (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR) or due to our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) to design our operation efficiently.
c. Other recipients. We will only transfer your action data to other recipients in individual cases if and to the extent this is required or permitted by law or in order to enforce legal claims or to investigate or prevent suspected or actual illegal activities. In these cases, we will inform you separately about the respective transfer, if and to the extent this is legally required.
