I. General information
Thank you for your interest in our social media channels. We would like to inform you which of your data we collect, use and store in this context and which rights you are entitled to. The individual social networks we use are listed below.
Social platforms such as Facebook, X (formerly Twitter) and LinkedIn generally analyse user behaviour comprehensively. When you visit the corresponding channels or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. Like buttons or advertising banners), numerous data protection-relevant processing operations are triggered, which we would like to explain to you in more detail:
If you are logged into your social media channel with an account and visit our social media channel, the operator can assign this visit to your user account. Even without an account or without you being logged in, your personal data, such as your IP address, may be collected under certain circumstances. This can be done, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device. The operator of the social media channel can use this data collected from you to create a user profile in order to record your preferences and interests. As a result, you will be shown targeted advertising within and outside the social media platform.
Please note that we are not able to track all processing operations on the various social media channels. For details on the processing procedures of the respective social media channel, please refer to the data protection provisions of the respective operator. We have listed the relevant links below.
II. Controller and legal basis
Controller within the meaning of the GDPR:
VEKA Private Limited
1st Floor, Fairfield by Marriott, Gachibowli, Nanakramguda, 500032 Hyderabad
If we operate one of our social media channels, we are jointly responsible for data processing with the operator of the social media platform. The operator’s contact details can be found in the operator’s privacy policy.
We operate our social media channels in order to interact with customers and interested parties. The legal basis is therefore Article 6(f) of the GDPR. If you contact us via the platform, we process your data on the basis of your consent and on the basis of Article 6(a) and (b).
III. Data processing and storage duration
The data you enter on our social media channels (e.g. comments, videos, images, likes) are published by the respective social media platform. We do not use or process this data for any other purpose at any time. However, we reserve the right to delete content if this should be necessary. We only store your data if, for example, you take part in a competition and have given us your consent to do so. We may share your content if the social media platform allows this and communicate with you via the platform.
If we process your data via a social media platform, we will delete this data as soon as the purpose no longer applies, you ask us to delete it or revoke your consent. Any stored cookies remain on your end device until you delete them. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
We cannot influence the scope and duration of the storage of the data that is stored by the operators of the corresponding platforms for their own purposes. For details, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective operator.

You have the right to request from us the correction of incorrect personal data pertaining to you. Under consideration of the purposes of the processing, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data — also by way of a supplementary declaration.
+ Right of deletion
Deletion of your personal data occurs if you assert a claim for deletion and no statutory retention rights or obligations contradict this. Furthermore, we always delete your personal data if the data is no longer required for the fulfilment of the purpose associated with the storage or if the storage is not permissible for other legal reasons, and if the deletion does not contradict the statutory retention periods.
+ Right of limitation of processing
You are entitled to request a limitation of the processing of your personal data if the personal data is not accurate, and this for the duration which enables VEKA Private Limited to check the accuracy of the personal data. If the processing is unlawful and you refuse the deletion of the personal data, and instead request the limitation of the use of your personal data from us, then we shall comply with your request. The deletion of data also does not occur if we require it for the assertion, exercising or defence of our own legal claims, or if you have objected to the processing acc. Article 21 Paragraph 1 GDPR, provided it is not yet established whether the entitled reasons given by VEKA Private Limited outweigh your reasons.
