Use of social plug-ins with the "2-click solution" 
We use social networking plugins on our website using the "2 click solution". In doing so, no connections to the servers of the social networks will be established without your explicit consent and consequently no data will be transmitted. 
The standard plug-in integration creates a link between your computer and the social network providers' servers when you visit the pages of our Web site that contain such a plug-in, and notify the plug-in by notifying your browser the page shown. Both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider server. This applies regardless of whether you are registered or logged in to the social network. Even with non-registered or not logged in users will be transmitted. If you are also logged in the social network Facebook, this information will be assigned to your personal user account. When using the plug-in functions (eg 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. In order to keep control over your data, we have decided to deactivate the corresponding button first. You will recognize this by the grayed out button. Without your express consent - in the form of activation of the button - no link to the server of the social network will be established and consequently no data will be transmitted. 
Only when you activate the button, the button becomes active (highlighted in color) and a direct connection to the servers of the social network is established. 
By activating you give your consent to the transmission of your data to the respective provider of the social network. Among other things, both your IP address and the information on 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 collected information will also be associated with your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this mapping by logging out of the social networks before visiting our website and before activating the buttons from your user accounts. 
The following social networks are integrated by means of the "2 click function". For more information on the scope and purpose of the collection and use of data, as well as your related rights and ways to protect your privacy, see the linked privacy policy of the provider.
