V. Use of social media plug-ins
1. Social media plug-ins Facebook, Google
We use the following social media plug-ins on our website: Facebook, Google .
a) For reasons of data protection, we have deliberately decided against using direct plug-ins from social networks on our website, so that when you visit our website, no data is automatically transferred to the respective social network. Instead, we use the so-called two-click solution. With the help of the two-click solution, you can determine for yourself whether and when data is transmitted to the providers of the respective social networks. Only when you activate the plug-in and thereby give your consent to the data transfer will your browser establish a direct connection to the server of the respective provider. The content of the respective plug-in is then transmitted directly to your browser by the associated provider and integrated into the page.
b) By simply integrating the plug-ins, the providers do not yet receive any information that you have accessed our website. This only takes place from the aforementioned activation time of the integrated plug-in. If such an activation has been carried out, the plug-in provider receives information that our website has been accessed by you. This applies regardless of whether you have a profile with the plug-in provider or not. If you are logged into your user account with one of the plug-in providers, the plug-in provider can assign your visit to our website to your user account. Data transmitted by means of the plug-in are linked to any existing accounts and profiles. The providers also create usage profiles. We have no influence on the data collected and the data processing operations, nor are we aware of the full scope of data collection, the purposes of processing or the storage periods. We also have no information on the deletion of the data collected by the plug-in provider.
c) The legal basis for the use of social media plug-ins is Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter a) GDPR on the basis of your consent.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the provider as well as your rights and setting options for the protection of your privacy can be found in the data protection information of the provider.
