Processing of personal data by Facebook

In its ruling of June 5, 2018 http://curia.europa.eu/juris/document/document.jsf?text=&docid=202543&pageIndex=0&docl the European Court of Justice (CJEU) has decided that the operator of a Facebook page, together with Facebook, is responsible for the processing of personal data. We know that Facebook processes the data of users for the following purposes:

advertising (analysis, creation of personalized advertising)
creating of user profiles
market research

Facebook uses cookies for the storage and further processing of this information, i.e. small text files that are stored on the various end devices of users. If the user has a Facebook profile and is logged in to it, the storage and analysis is also cross-device. The privacy policy of Facebook contains more information about data processing: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/

Possibilities for contradiction (so-called opt-outs) can be set here https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads and here http://www.youronlinechoices.com.

Facebook refers to these EU standard contract clauses in its terms of use
https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/ALL/?uri=celex%3A32010D0087

Nevertheless, the CJEU considers the USA to be a country with an insufficient level of data protection. In particular, there is the possibility that US authorities may process personal data in order to defend against terrorism.
An appeal against this may not be available.
