Social Media
Some of our website(s) use the social plugin "like” button, widgets such as “share this” button, or Facebook Pixels, provided by the social network facebook.com, operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). The plugin is identifiable by the blue and white Facebook logo "f".
By visiting our website(s) your browser establishes a connection to Facebook servers. Facebook directly transfers the plugin, widget or other similar technologies (like pixels) from your browser, enabling Facebook to receive information about you. We have no direct influence on the data gathered by these technologies.
If you are logged into Facebook, your visit can be assigned to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugin by clicking “Like” the corresponding information is transmitted from your browser directly to Facebook and stored by it. Even if you are not logged into Facebook, there is possibility that the plugin will transmit some data e.g. your IP-address.
