Please note that the use of the respective social network is subject to the conditions of use and privacy of that company, over which we have no influence. However, we are glad to explain how such networks process your personal information in this context:

  • Facebook

    We have integrated components of the company Facebook on this website. Facebook is a social network.

    A social network is an Internet-based social meeting place, an online community that usually allows its users to communicate with one another and interact in a virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform to exchange views and experiences or allows the Internet community to provide personal or business information. Facebook, among other things, allows social network users to create private profiles, upload photos and socialize through friendship requests.

    Each time one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by us and on which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-in) has been integrated, is visited, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the person concerned is automatically prompted by the respective Facebook component to download from the Facebook a presentation of the corresponding Facebook component. An overview of all Facebook plug-ins can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=en_US .

    As a part of this technical process, Facebook will be aware which specific sub-site of our website is visited by the person concerned.

    If the person concerned is logged in to Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognizes with each visit to our website by the person concerned and during the entire duration of the respective stay on our website, which specific sub-site of our website the person concerned is visiting. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned by Facebook to the respective Facebook account of the person concerned. If the person concerned activates one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, for example, the “Like” button, or if the person concerned makes a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the personal Facebook-user account of the person concerned and saves this personal data. Facebook always receives information from the Facebook component that the person concerned has visited our website if the person concerned is simultaneously logged in to Facebook at the time our website is accessed; this happens regardless of whether or not the person concerned clicks on the Facebook component.

Twitter is a multilingual publicly available micro-blogging service where users can post and distribute so-called tweets i.e. short messages, which are limited to 140 characters. These short messages are available to anyone, including non-Twitter subscribers. The tweets are also displayed to the so-called followers of the respective user. Followers are other Twitter users who follow a user’s tweets. Twitter also allows you to address a broad audience via hashtags, links or retweets. The operating company of Twitter is Twitter Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA.
