Use of social plug-ins via "Shariff"We use the Google Tag Manager from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; "Google") on our website.
This application manages JavaScript tags and HTML tags that are used primarily for the implementation of tracking and analytics tools. The data processing serves the purpose of demand-oriented design and optimization of our website.
The Google Tag Manager itself neither stores cookies nor processes personal data. However, it enables the triggering of additional tags that may collect and process personal data.
Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found here.
We use social network plug-ins on our website. To ensure you retain control over your data, we use the privacy-friendly "Shariff" buttons.
Without your explicit consent, no connections to the servers of social networks will be made and consequently no data will be transmitted.
"Shariff" is a development by the specialists of the computer magazine c’t. It enables more privacy on the web and replaces the usual "Share" buttons of social networks. More information about the Shariff project can be found herehttps://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html.
When you click the buttons, a popup window will appear where you can log in to the respective provider with your data. Only after this active login by you will a direct connection to the social networks be established.
By logging in, you consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social media provider. This includes, among other things, the transmission of your IP address as well as information about which of our pages you have visited. If you are simultaneously logged into one or more of your social network accounts, the collected information will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this assignment by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons. The social networks listed below are integrated using the "Shariff" function.
More detailed information about the scope and purpose of the collection and use of data, as well as your related rights and options for protecting your privacy, can be found in the linked privacy notices of the providers.
