Use of social plug-ins via "Shariff"
We use plug-ins from social networks on our website. We use the data protection-safe “Shariff” buttons so that you retain control over your data.
Without your express consent, no links will be made to the social network servers and consequently no data will be transmitted.
“Shariff” is a development by the specialists at the computer magazine c’t. It enables more privacy on the net and replaces the usual “Share” buttons on social networks. You can find more information about the Shariff project here https://www.heise.en/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html.
If you click on the buttons, a pop-up window appears in which you can log in to the respective provider with your data. A direct connection to the social networks is only established after you have actively logged in.
By logging in you give your consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social media provider. Here, among other things, both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this assignment by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons. The social networks named below are integrated using the “Shariff” function.
You can find more information on the scope and purpose of the collection and use of the data as well as your rights and options for protecting your privacy in the linked data protection notices of the providers.

Use of social plug-ins using the "2-click solution"
We use plug-ins from social networks on our website using the “2-click solution”. No connections are made to the social network servers without your express consent and consequently no data is transmitted.
With the standard integration of plug-ins, when you visit the pages of our website that contain such a plug-in, a link is established between your computer and the servers of the social network provider and the plug-in is opened by notifying your browser shown on the page. Both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider’s server. This applies regardless of whether you are registered or logged in to the social network. A transmission takes place even with unregistered or not logged in users. If you are also logged into the social network Facebook, this information will be assigned to your personal user account. When using the plug-in functions (e.g. by pressing the button), this information is also assigned to your user account, which you can only prevent by logging out before using the plug-in. So that you retain control over your data, we have decided to deactivate the corresponding button first. You can recognize this by the grayed out button. Without your express consent – in the form of activating the button – no link will be made to the server of the social network and consequently no data will be transmitted.
Only when you activate the button does the button become active (highlighted in color) and a direct connection to the servers of the social network is established.
By activating it, you give your consent to the transfer of your data to the respective provider of the social network. Here, among other things, both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this assignment by logging out of your user accounts on the social networks before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
The social networks named below are integrated using the “2-click function”. You can find more information on the scope and purpose of the collection and use of the data as well as your rights and options for protecting your privacy in the linked data protection notices of the providers.

Use of Facebook plug-ins
This website uses the plug-in of the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). If you call up pages on our website with such a plug-in, a connection to the Facebook servers is established and the plug-in is displayed on the page by a message to your browser. This will tell the Facebook server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged in as a member of Facebook, Facebook will assign this information to your personal Facebook user account. When using the plug-in functions (e.g. clicking the “Like” button, submitting a comment), this information is also assigned to your Facebook account, which you can only prevent by logging out before using the plug-in.
If you do not want Facebook to assign the information collected directly to your Facebook profile, you must either log out of Facebook before visiting our website or use a “Facebook blocker” to block the loading of the Facebook plug-ins on our pages .
For more information on the collection and use of data by Facebook, your rights in this regard and options for protecting your privacy, see the Facebook data protection information: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php
