However, this information is neither evaluated by the administrators nor recorded elsewhere. The statistics that Facebook makes available to the administrators are output in aggregated form and do not allow the administrators to draw any conclusions about personal data.

What Facebook learns:
What data Facebook stores in detail and how the company uses this data is not exactly known. What is certain is that Facebook not only stores data that is entered directly by users, but also records the actions of Facebook users - presumably without gaps.
Facebook also
- records the most important data of the computer system from which a user logs into the network - including IP address, processor type and browser version including plug-ins and
- every visit to websites (widget data) on which a "Like" button is installed. The IP address is also transmitted. If the visitor to the external page is a Facebook user and has already logged into Facebook from the same computer, Facebook can also determine their identity.
This enables Facebook to examine the preferences, inclinations and contacts of its users very precisely and beyond Facebook usage.
Important note:
We expressly reserve the right to remove comments from this page that violate applicable law or morality and to report this to the platform operator. In cases of criminal relevance, this will also result in criminal investigation proceedings. Comments that are not written in German as well as political advertising and commercial content may be hidden or deleted. If comments contain links and/or references to other sites, these will also be deleted.

What Twitter learns:
What data Twitter stores in detail and how the company uses this data is not exactly known. What is certain is that Twitter not only stores data entered directly by users, but also records the actions of Twitter users - presumably without gaps - and passes them on to third parties.
Twitter also records
- the most important data of the computer system (log data) from which a user logs into the network - up to the IP address, processor type and browser version including plug-ins and
- every visit to websites (widget data) on which a Twitter button is installed. The IP address is also transmitted. If the visitor to the external site is a Twitter user and has already logged in to Twitter from the same computer, Twitter can also determine their identity.
This enables Twitter to investigate the preferences, inclinations and contacts of its users very precisely and beyond Twitter usage.
Important note:
We expressly reserve the right to report tweets that violate applicable law or morality to the platform provider and, if necessary, to have them removed from this page.

Recognize the real police pages
On the websites of the North Rhine-Westphalian police authorities, the car licence plate of the district or city in which the police authority is located (K for Köln (Cologne), PB for Paderborn, etc.) is always part of the name.
The account name of a police authority is structured according to a fixed pattern on both Facebook and Twitter:
Account names on Facebook
polizei.nrw.{car registration number}
e.g.: @polizei.nrw.hs for the Heinsberg police presence or @polizei.nrw.ac for the Facebook presence of the Aachen police headquarters
Account names on Twitter
polizei_nrw_{car registration number}
e.g. For example: the Heinsberg police tweet under @Polizei_NRW_HS and the Aachen police under @Polizei_NRW_AC
