Privacy policy - Instagram
Introduction
We are pleased that you are visiting our Instagram page and, in this privacy policy, we inform you about how personal data is processed in connection with visiting or interacting with our Instagram page @soulvia.jewels or its content. Personal data means all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as the “data subject”).
The legal basis for data protection can be found in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Data Controller
A controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. If you submit personal data to us through our Instagram page and we alone decide on the purposes and means of processing, then: Anna Tarmazakova (hereinafter referred to as “the Controller” / “we” / “us”) is solely responsible for the processing. Further details about the controller can be found in our Legal Notice. Contact: see Legal Notice.
To the extent that personal data is processed in connection with our Instagram page and the platform operator alone determines the purposes and means of processing, then: Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as “Meta”) is solely responsible for the processing.
Scope of Personal Data Processing
1. Information on Data Processing by Meta
Instagram’s Privacy Policy lists the categories of personal data processed when using Meta products (see “What information do we collect?”), describes in general terms the purposes for which this data is used (see “How do we use your information?”), and names the categories of recipients to whom this data may be disclosed (see “How is your information shared on Meta products or with integrated partners?”, “How do we share information with third parties?”, and “How do the Meta companies work together?”).
The linked privacy policy also contains information about the legal basis for processing this data (see “What is our legal basis for processing your information? What are your rights?” and “Information on legal basis”), as well as information on how you can withdraw your consent to the processing of personal data.
The privacy policy also explains how you can exercise your rights to access, correction, portability, and deletion toward Meta (see “What are your rights?”). This section also includes information about your right to object to certain processing activities involving personal data. More detailed information about your control options can be found in this help article.
The privacy policy also provides information about how long personal data is stored and the criteria used to determine this period (see “How long do we keep your information?”).
The privacy policy further refers to Meta’s intention to transfer personal data to third countries where applicable (see “How do we transfer information?”). According to Meta, such transfers are based on adequacy decisions issued by the European Commission pursuant to Art. 45(1) GDPR or approved standard contractual clauses pursuant to Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR.
2. Information on Meta’s Use of Cookies
When you visit our Instagram page and your browser allows the storage of cookies, Meta stores information in the form of small text files in your browser’s memory (hereinafter “cookies”) and can access this information when you visit the Facebook platform or a website that integrates Facebook technologies.
Further information on the purpose of the cookies used, the integration of these cookies by other websites, and your control options can be found in Instagram’s cookie information.
Please note that Meta can use these cookies to track your user behavior (possibly across devices for logged-in users) even outside the Instagram platform on other websites. This applies both to users registered on Instagram and to non-registered persons.
We would also like to point out that we have no influence over the data processing carried out by Meta in connection with cookies.
You can also visit our Instagram page if you configure your browser so that no cookies from the Facebook platform are stored. Information on how to adjust your browser’s cookie settings can usually be found in the help section of your browser.
If you are registered or logged into Instagram or Facebook and want to prevent Meta from linking your visit to our Facebook page with your Instagram or Facebook user account, you should log out of Facebook, disable the “stay logged in” function, delete the cookies stored on your device, and close and restart your browser.

We process the data you provide in this context, and any data accessible to us, for the purpose of public relations work. We want to provide you with a platform where we can display current information and through which you can quickly contact us.
The use of platforms with broad reach and the processing of your data during interactions with our page or content is necessary for the performance of tasks carried out in the public interest.
d) Duration of Data Storage
Your data will be deleted by us, as far as possible, when we discontinue operation of our Instagram page. If Meta continues to store this data, such storage is governed solely by Meta’s privacy policy and terms of use.
4. Processing of Anonymized Data for Statistical Purposes
We have set up our Instagram page as a business profile and receive anonymized page statistics (“Instagram Insights”) provided by Meta, which give us statistical insights about visitors to our Instagram page and their interactions with our Instagram page and its content.

The statistics include the following information:
- Reach, page views, viewing duration of video posts
- Interactions such as
liking, commenting on, or sharing posts
- Demographic information such as age, gender, and location
It is not possible for us to identify individuals who triggered these events.
If you have questions about the personal data that Facebook processes to create these statistics, you can contact Meta’s Data Protection Officer.
