These service providers are contractually obligated to adhere to data protection regulations and may only use personal data to process your donation.
You may decline our cookies on our website or just de-select the analytics cookie, however, please be aware that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.
Our website may contain links to websites of other providers. We would like to point out that this privacy policy applies exclusively to the websites of the Frankfurt Zoological Society. We have no influence on and do not control that other providers comply with the applicable data protection regulations.
The legislator has enacted various retention periods and obligations. After expiry of these periods, the corresponding data is routinely deleted. If data is not affected by this, it will be deleted or made anonymous when the purposes stated in this privacy policy cease to apply. If this privacy policy does not contain any other, deviating provisions regarding the storage of data, the data collected by us will be stored by us for as long as they are necessary for the aforementioned purposes for which they were collected.
Further processing or use of your personal data will generally only take place if permitted by law or if you have consented to data processing or use. In the event of further processing for purposes other than those for which the data were originally collected, we will inform you of these other purposes prior to further processing and provide you with further relevant information.
The buttons are marked with the logo of the respective social network. However, these are not the usual social plugins, but buttons with deposited links. The buttons must be activated (clicked) separately by you by clicking on them. As long as these buttons are not clicked, no data is transferred to the social networks. Only when you click on the buttons and thereby declare your consent to communicate with the servers of the social network, the buttons become active and the connection is established.
After clicking the button acts like a so-called Share-Plugin. The social network is provided with information about the visited page, which you can share with your contacts in your social network. If you want to “share” the information, you must be logged in. If you are not logged in, you will end up on the login page of the social network you clicked on and you will no longer be on the pages of zgf.de/fzs.org. If you are logged in, the information that you would like to recommend the respective article will be transmitted.
By activating the button, the social networks then receive information about the time and date you accessed the corresponding page of our website, as well as your IP address, details of the browser used and language settings. When you click the button, your click is transmitted to the social network and used according to its data usage guidelines.
When the button is activated, we have no influence on the data and data processing procedures collected and are not responsible for this data processing and in this respect we are also not the responsible party within the meaning of the GDPR. We are also not aware of the full extent of the data collection, its legal basis, the purposes and the storage periods. The information provided here is therefore not necessarily complete.
The transmission of the data takes place regardless of whether you actually have an account with the provider or are logged in there. If you are logged in with the provider, your data will be assigned directly to your account. The providers may also use cookies on your computer to track you.
To our knowledge, the provider stores this data in user profiles which he uses for the purpose of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of his website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for users who are not logged in) for the purpose of presenting needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have a right of objection to the creation of these user profiles. To exercise this right of objection, please contact the respective provider.

The Frankfurt Zoological Society maintains online profiles within social networks and platforms in order to have the possibility to communicate with active users there. The Frankfurt Zoological Society makes use of the technical platforms and services offered by the providers. In social networks and on other external platforms the respective operators’ own data protection regulations apply, even if we disseminate information and maintain presences there.
We would like to point out that you use the social network and platform services offered and their functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g. commenting, sharing, rating etc.). The data collected about you in this context is processed by the operators of the platforms and, if necessary, transferred to countries outside the European Union. What information the operators receive and how it is used is described in general terms in the respective data protection guidelines. On the individual platforms, you will also find information on how to contact the operators and how to set up advertisements; on Facebook: www.facebook.com/about/privacy
In what way the operators of the social networks use the data from the visit of the respective pages for their own purposes, to what extent activities on the pages are assigned to individual users, how long these data are stored and whether data from a visit to the respective page are passed on to third parties is not conclusively and clearly stated by the operators and is not known to us.
When you visit our Facebook page, Facebook (Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA) collects, among other things, your IP address and other information that is available on your PC in the form of cookies. This information is used to provide us, as operators of the Facebook pages, with statistical information about the use of the Facebook page. The legal basis for the collection of the data is our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 f GDPR). Facebook and the Frankfurt Zoological Society are jointly responsible for processing the Insights data in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. However, Facebook assumes the primary responsibility and the Frankfurt Zoological Society does not make any decisions regarding the processing of this data. As Facebook is constantly developing the availability and processing of the data, the Frankfurt Zoological Society refers for further details in this regard to Facebook’s privacy policy (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/)As only Facebook has full access to the user data, we recommend that users contact Facebook directly regarding requests for information or other questions regarding the rights of data subjects as users (e.g. right to deletion). If the user no longer wishes to receive the data processing described here in the future, the connection between the user profile and our site can be severed using the “I no longer like this site” function.
