When you visit our LinkedIn authority page, follow this page or engage with the page, LinkedIn processes personal data to provide us with statistics and insights in anonymized form. This gives us insights into the types of actions that people take on our site (so-called page insights). For this purpose, LinkedIn processes in particular data that you have already provided to LinkedIn via the information in your profile, such as data on function, country, industry, seniority, company size and employment status. In addition, LinkedIn will process information about how you interact with our LinkedIn authority page, e.g. whether you are a follower of our LinkedIn authority page. With the Page Insights, LinkedIn does not provide us with any personal data about you. We only have access to the summarized Page Insights. It is also not possible for us to draw conclusions about individual members from the information in the Page Insights.

This processing of personal data in the context of Page Insights is carried out by LinkedIn and us as joint controllers.

We have entered into an agreement with LinkedIn on processing as joint controllers, which sets out the distribution of data protection obligations between us and LinkedIn. The agreement is available at

We process the anonymous statistics provided by LinkedIn in order to tailor our services and information to the needs of citizens as part of our public relations work.

If you wish to enforce a request for information or other data subject rights, the most effective way to do this is to contact the provider itself. This is because only the provider has access to the visitor's data and can provide information or take action. The Office for Economic Development does not have access to the data itself.

Facebook processes a range of personal data of page visitors for its own purposes in its so-called "Page Insights". This processing takes place regardless of whether page visitors are registered with Facebook or not and regardless of whether page visitors are members of the Facebook network. Users who access the Facebook pages without being registered or logged in to Facebook also have the option of influencing the scope of data processing by means of a cookie banner set by Facebook.

Page Insights are summarized statistics that are created based on certain "events" that are logged by the Facebook servers when people interact with pages and the content associated with them. Page operators themselves do not have access to the personal data that is processed in the context of "events", but only to the summarized, anonymized Page Insights.

This processing of personal data in the context of Page Insights is carried out by Facebook and us as joint controllers. We have entered into an agreement with Facebook on processing as joint controllers, which sets out the distribution of data protection obligations between us and Facebook.
