The agreement is available at https://de-de.facebook.com/legal/terms/businesstools. Under it, we are responsible in particular for fulfilling the information obligations under Art. 13 and 14 GDPR, for complying with the security requirements of Art. 32 GDPR with regard to the correct technical implementation and configuration of the service, and for complying with the obligations under Art. 33 and 34 GDPR insofar as a personal data breach concerns our obligations under the joint processing agreement.

The application also serves the purpose of compiling conversion statistics. This tells us the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag, as well as which actions were taken on this website after the redirect.
