Plug-ins and other features
Use of social plug-ins
We use social network plug-ins on our website.
The integration of social plug-ins and the data processing that takes place serves the purpose of optimizing the advertising of our products. When social plug-ins are integrated, a link is established between your computer and the servers of the social network provider and the plug-in is displayed on the page by notifying your browser, provided you have expressly consented to this. Both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider servers. This applies regardless of whether you are registered or logged in to the social network. Transmission also takes place for users who are not registered or not logged in. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected can also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. When you use the plug-in functions (e.g. by clicking the button), this information is also assigned to your user account. You can prevent this assignment by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.

Use of social plug-ins by means of “Shariff”
We use social network plug-ins on our website. To ensure that you retain control over your data, we use the privacy-safe “Shariff” buttons. Without your express consent, no links to the servers of the social networks are established and consequently no data is transmitted. “Shariff” is a development by the specialists at the computer magazine c't. It enables more privacy on the Internet and replaces the usual “Share” buttons of social networks. You can find more information about the Shariff project here https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html. When 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 consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social media provider. Among other things, your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited will be 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. For more information on the scope and purpose of the collection and use of the data and your rights and options for protecting your privacy in this regard, please refer to the linked data protection notices of the providers.

Use of social plug-ins by means of the “2-click solution”
We use social network plug-ins on our website by means of the “2-click solution”. This means that no connections to the servers of the social networks are established without your express consent and consequently no data is transmitted. With the standard integration of plug-ins, when you access 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 displayed on the page by notifying your browser. Both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider servers. This applies regardless of whether you are registered or logged in to the social network. Transmission also takes place for users who are not registered or not logged in. If you are also logged into the Facebook social network, this information will be assigned to your personal user account. When using the plug-in functions (e.g. by clicking the button), this information is also assigned to your user account, which you can only prevent by logging out before using the plug-in. To ensure that you retain control over your data, we have decided to initially deactivate the corresponding button. You can recognize this by the greyed-out button. Without your express consent - in the form of activating the button - no link to the social network server will be established and consequently no data will be transmitted.
Only when you activate the button will the button become active (highlighted in color) and a direct connection to the servers of the social network will be established. By activating the button, you give your consent to the transfer of your data to the respective provider of the social network. Among other things, your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited will be 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 with the social networks before visiting our website and before activating the buttons. The social networks listed below are integrated using the “2-click function”. For more information on the scope and purpose of the collection and use of the data and your rights and options for protecting your privacy in this regard, please refer to the linked data protection notices of the providers.
