Site operators can process your visit and assign it to your user account. Even if you are not logged in, a collection may be possible, for example, via your IP address, browser details, through the use of cookies or other tracking technologies.

The personal information collected can be used by the operators of social networks to create profiles. Among other things, your (presumed) interests and preferences may be recorded in order to display personalised advertising.

ANI is not able to track all of these data processing operations within the social networks and generally does not have access to this data. Please refer to the respective privacy statements of the networks for further information.

Below you will find information on data protection on the respective portals.

Further information on data processing by ANI, in particular on the data protection officer and your rights, can be found in the data protection statement on https://active-nutrition-international.com/privacy-policy, which also applies to our social media presences in these points.

When you use Facebook and call up our social media profile, personal data is processed by the operator of the social network. This includes e.g. information on views of pages, posts, videos, stories or other content associated with the fan page, interactions with a story, subscriptions, likes of posts, recommendations of posts or comments, sharing, reactions or comments of posts, notifications of posts or on hiding posts, to click on links on other pages leading to the fan page, hover over names or profile pictures to preview content, click on buttons on a fan page and on the device (computer or mobile device) you are logged in with, view and respond to events, click on a link for event tickets, to initiate a messenger conversation, to calls to Fanpage shops, including information on such actions such as date and time of action, country/city (estimated from IP address or imported from user profile for logged in users), language code (from browser HTTP header and/or language setting), Age/gender groups (from the user profile, only for logged in users), previously visited web pages (from the browser HTTP header), whether the action was taken on a computer or on a mobile device (from the browser user agent or from app attributes) and the Facebook user ID (only for logged in users). This data is processed by Facebook as the operator of the social network and cannot be viewed by us. The legal basis for the processing results from Facebook's privacy policy, available at https://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php.

We and Facebook are so-called "joint controllers" for the processing of the Insights Data. This means that Facebook and we process this data with the joint purpose of learning about the usage behaviour of visitors to our fan page. Facebook, as the operator of the platform, collects the detailed usage data from you; we only receive the summarised insights data from Facebook. Therefore, only Facebook makes decisions about the processing of usage data in connection with Page Insights.
