This information is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Social media have become an integral part of the internet and modern communication. In order to stay in touch with our customers and interested parties, we have also set up our own profile on Instagram. Instagram is an online service of Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
We expressly draw your attention to the fact that Facebook stores the data (e.g. IP address, preferences and personal interests, behaviour on Instagram pages, any personal information stored on Instagram, etc.) of users and uses it for business purposes.
We have no influence on the processing and further use of this data, as Facebook alone determines the processing. To what extent, where and for how long the data is stored, to what extent the data is linked and evaluated and to whom the data is passed on is currently not comprehensible to us. We also have no insight or influence with regard to deletion periods, i.e. whether and to what extent deletion periods are adhered to.
Details from Facebook itself about what information is collected can be found in Instagram's privacy policy, which can be viewed here: https://help.instagram.com/519522125107875. There you will also find information on how to contact Facebook and on the setting options for ads.
If you are an Instagram member and logged into your Instagram user account, Facebook can associate your visit to our site with your user account. If you would like to prevent Facebook from linking data about your visit to our profile with your membership data stored on Facebook, you must:
In this way, according to Facebook, all information through which you can be identified by Facebook is deleted.
You do not need to be a member of Instagram to see the content on our Instagram profile. However, data is collected, stored and used by Facebook every time you visit our site. The moment you access our profile, your browser establishes a connection with a Facebook server. In the process, data may be transferred to countries outside the European Union. In any case, whether you are registered with Instagram or not, your IP address will be transmitted and cookies will be set. If you are an Instagram member and logged into your Instagram user account, Facebook can associate your visit to our site with your user account.
The cookies used include session cookies, which are deleted when the browser is closed, and persistent cookies, which remain on the end device until they expire or are deleted by the user. A cookie is a tiny text file that allows a website to recognise a browser. Cookies are stored on the computer when a website is called up and are called up and read the next time the web server is called up. You can decide for yourself via your browser settings whether and which cookies you want to allow, block or delete. Alternatively, you can also install so-called ad blockers, such as Ghostery.
According to Facebook, the cookies used by Instagram are for authentication, security, website and product integrity, advertising and measurement, website features and services, performance, and analytics and research. Details of the cookies used by Facebook (e.g. names of the cookies, integration, function duration, recorded content and purpose, control options) can be viewed here: https://help.instagram.com/help/instagram/1896641480634370/?locale=en_GB.
You can make settings for which advertisements are to be displayed or no longer displayed by Facebook at https://help.instagram.com/help/instagram/1896641480634370/?locale=en_GB and at http://www.youronlinechoices.com. You can manage your preferences regarding usage-based online advertising via the aforementioned link. If you object to usage-based online advertising with a particular provider using the preference manager, this only applies to the particular business data collection via the web browser you are currently using. Preference management is cookie-based. Deleting all browser cookies will also remove the preferences you have set with the preference manager.
Data that is collected:
User interactions (postings, likes etc.) for user communication
Facebook cookies* for target group advertising
Demographic data (e.g. based on age, place of residence, language or gender) for target group advertising
Statistical data on user interactions in aggregated form, i.e. without personal reference for us (e.g. page activities, page views, page previews, likes, recommendations, posts, videos, page subscriptions incl. origin, times of day) for target group advertising
An automated decision-making including profiling according to Art. 22 GDPR does not take place.
As a matter of principle, we only store personal data until the respective purpose for which the data was collected has been achieved. In the context of a business relationship with you, we store your personal data for as long as the business relationship lasts, this also includes the initiation and the processing of a contract as well as the regular limitation period. In addition, we store the data if and insofar as we are subject to statutory retention obligations. These can result, for example, from the German Commercial Code (HGB) or the German Fiscal Code (AO).
If you have given us consent for a processing operation, the data related to the granting of consent will be stored until revoked or at the longest for the duration of the processing operation and after its termination within the scope of the statute of limitations.
Insofar as you interact within the framework of Instagram, Facebook naturally also has access to your data. Facebook is located in an insecure third country where the level of data protection is lower. For this reason, the European standard contractual clauses were concluded with Facebook.
If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR is the legal basis for the processing. We see our legitimate interest for data processing in the presentation of our company and our products as well as services for your information and in particular in the provision of up-to-date communication options for and with you.
