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 social network servers will be established.
By activating it, you give your consent to the transmission of your data to the respective social network 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 user accounts with the social networks before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
