d) Integration of Xing and LinkedIn
The website includes features from the social network Xing, operated by New Work SE, Am Strandkai 1, 20457 Hamburg, Germany.
Every time you visit a page containing Xing features, a connection is made to Xing’s servers. To my knowledge, no personal data is stored in this process.
No IP addresses are stored, and user behaviour is not evaluated.
The website also uses features from LinkedIn, operated by LinkedIn Corporation, 1000 W. Maude Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, USA. Each time a page with LinkedIn features is accessed, a connection is made to LinkedIn’s servers. LinkedIn is informed that you have visited my website with your IP address. If you click the LinkedIn “Recommend” button while logged into your LinkedIn account, LinkedIn can match the visit to my website with your LinkedIn profile.
The use of these plugins is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, based on my legitimate interest in comprehensive networking and public representation of my firm.
LinkedIn processes data in the USA as well. Standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission are used to ensure compliance with European data protection standards. More information can be found here: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2021/914/oj?locale=en.
