  1. SOCIAL MEDIA 

 

Share content via plugins (Facebook, Google+1, Instagram & Co.)

The content on our pages can be shared on social networks such as Facebook, Instagram or Google+ in compliance with data protection regulations. This site uses “Shariff” for this. This was developed by specialists from the computer magazine c’t to enable more privacy on the net and to replace the usual “share” buttons of social networks. More information about the Shariff project can be found here. This tool establishes direct contact between the networks and users only when the user actively clicks on one of these buttons.

An automatic transfer of user data to the operators of these platforms does not take place through this tool.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking

This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).

As part of Google AdWords, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is set. Cookies are small text files that the Internet browser stores on the user’s computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.

 

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected  using the conversion cookie is used to  create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and  were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by  easily deactivating the Google Conversion Tracking cookie via your Internet browser under User Settings. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The purpose of reCAPTCHA is to check whether the data entry on our websites (e.g., in a contact form) is carried out by a human or by an automated program. For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor on the basis of various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates  various information (e.g. IP address, length of stay of the website visitor on the website or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis will be forwarded to Google.

The reCAPTCHA analyses run completely in the background. Website visitors are not informed that an analysis is taking place.

The plugins can contain interactive elements or contents (e.g.: videos, graphics, or articles) and are recognised by one of the Facebook logos (white “f” on blue tiles, the term “like” or a “thumb up” symbol) or these are marked with the addition “Facebook Social Plugin”. The list and the optic of the Facebook social plugins can be seen here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

 

Facebook is certified under the privacy-shield-treaty and therefore guaranties to comply with the European data protection (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TORzAAO&status=Active).

When a user activates one of these online functions in clicking on one of the above-mentioned symbols, that contain plugins, then the device of the user will connect with the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is sent directly from Facebook to the device of the user and from there contented with the online offer. As of that point, the processed data can be used to build up a user profile. Therefore, we have no influence over the extent of the data which Facebook obtains with the help of plugins, and we therefore inform you according to our information status.

Through the integration of plugins, Facebook receives the information that a user has connected with the specific site of the online offer. When the user is logged in at Facebook, then Facebook can assign the sitting to the Facebook account. When users interact with the plugins, for example in confirming the “like” symbol or add a comment, then this is information is sent from the user’s device directly to Facebook and is stored there.
Even if a user is not a registered Facebook member, there is still a possibility that Facebook registers the users IP address and that this is then stored/saved. According to Facebook, they only store anonymous IP addresses of EU citizens.

The purpose and scope of the data collection and the ongoing processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your rights and setting options related to this to protect your private sphere are shown in the Facebook data protection information: https://www.facebook.com./about/privacy/.

If a user is a Facebook member and does not want Facebook to collect and store his/her data and assign the actions of the stored and saved data to their Facebook account, the user must be logged out of Facebook and delete the cookies before using our online offers. Further settings and objections to the use of data for advertising and marketing purposes can be undertaken in your Facebook profile: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads or over the US-American site: http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or over the EU-site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/.The settings are platform-independent, that means they will be saved on all devices, such as desktop computers or mobile devices.
