    data by the Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies and on the free movement of such
    data (repealing Regulation (EC) No 45/2001).
    This privacy statement explains the reason for the processing of your personal data, the way we
    collect, handle and ensure protection of all personal data provided, how that information is
    used and what rights you have in relation to your personal data. It also specifies the contact

  12. Why and how do we process your personal data?
    Purpose of the processing operation: Unit SCIC.01 collects and uses your personal information
    to facilitate online communication activities lead by DG Interpretation through widely used
    corporate social media platforms, and to analyse how social media users react to the
    information published.
    The processing of personal data by DG Interpretation follows users’ voluntary registration,
    which is subject to the terms and conditions of the social media platform used. SCIC.01
    processes and analyses aggregated data and statistics as well as publicly available data from
    posts by authors that have agreed to the terms and conditions of the various social media
    platforms (e.g. Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube). Data subjects should also consult
    the privacy policies of the social media platforms for more information.
    Each of DG Interpretation’s social media channels are identified through the handle
    @EUInterpreters.
    The DG’s social media activity reinforces its external communication goals of systematically
    supporting capacity development, the promotion of multilingualism and the interpreting
    profession as well as highlighting the DG’s position as a point of reference for conference
    interpretation on a global level.Your personal data will not be used for an automated decisionmaking including profiling.
