8) Use of Social Media: Social Plugins

8.1 Facebook plugins with Shariff solution

Our website uses so-called social plugins ("plugins") of the social network Facebook operated by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA ("Facebook").
In order to increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, these buttons are not fully integrated as plugins, but only by using an HTML link in the page. This type of engagement will ensure that when you visit a page on our site that contains such buttons, we will not connect to the Facebook servers. If you click on the button, a new browser window opens and calls up the Facebook page, where you can interact with the plugins there (if necessary after entering your login data).
Based in the US, Facebook Inc. is certified to the US Privacy Shield, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection in the EU.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your related rights and settings options for the protection of your privacy, please refer to the privacy policy of Facebook: www.facebook.com/policy.php

8.2 LinkedIn plugin as Shariff solution

Our website uses social plugins ("plugins") from the LinkedIn online service operated by LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("LinkedIn").
In order to increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, these buttons are not fully integrated as plugins, but only by using an HTML link in the page. This type of engagement ensures that when you visit a page on our site that contains such buttons, we will not connect to LinkedIn's servers. If you click on the button, a new browser window opens and calls up the LinkedIn page, where you can interact with the plugins there (if necessary after entering your login data).
United States-based LinkedIn Corporation is for the US-European Data Protection Convention "Privacy Shield", which ensures compliance with the data protection standard in the EU.
For information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and further processing and use of the data by LinkedIn, as well as your rights and options to protect your privacy, please refer to LinkedIn's privacy policy: www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy

8.3 Twitter plug-ins with 2-click solution

Our website uses so-called social plugins ("plugins") from the Twitter microblogging service operated by Twitter Inc., 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA ("Twitter").
In order to increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are initially disabled via the so-called "2-click" solution integrated into the page. Deactivated plugins can be recognized by the fact that they are grayed out. This integration ensures that when you visit a page of our website that contains such plugins, no connection is established with the servers of Twitter. Only if you activate the plugins and thus according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO give your consent to the data transmission, your browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of Twitter. The content of the respective plugin is transmitted directly to your browser and integrated into the page. The plugin then transmits data (including your IP address) to Twitter. We have no control over the amount of data Twitter collects using the plugins. In any case, according to our knowledge, Twitter receives information about which of our websites you have currently accessed and previously visited. By integrating the plugins, Twitter also receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website if you do not have a profile on Twitter or are currently not logged in. The collected information (including your IP address) will be transmitted from your browser directly to a server from Twitter to the USA and stored there. If you interact with the plugins, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a server of Twitter and stored there. The information will also be posted on Twitter and displayed there to your contacts.
You can revoke your consent at any time by deactivating the activated plugin by clicking again. However, the revocation has no influence on the data that has already been transmitted to Twitter.
Based in the US, Twitter Inc. is certified to the US Privacy Shield, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection in the EU.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Twitter as well as your rights and options to protect your privacy, please refer to the privacy policy of Twitter: twitter.com/privacy

The Google Search Console is a free service from Google that allows us to monitor and manage our presence in the Google search index. It gives us access to much of the data and information Google has about our site.

10) Tools and Miscellaneous

Google Maps

On our website, we use Google Maps (API) from Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (land) maps to visually display geographic information. The use of this service will show you our location and facilitate your arrival.

When you visit any of the subpages where the Google Maps map is incorporated, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Google's servers in the United States and stored there. This is done regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in to, or if there is no user account. When you're logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for non-logged-in users) as usage profiles and evaluates them. According to Art. 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR, such an evaluation is based on the legitimate interests of Google in the display of personalized advertising, market research and / or tailor-made design of its website. You have a right of objection to the formation of these user profiles, and you must comply with this to Google.

US-based Google LLC is certified under the US Privacy Shield, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection in the EU.

If you disagree with the future transmission of your data to Google when using Google Maps, you can also disable the Google Maps web service completely by turning off the JavaScript application in your browser. Google Maps and the map display on this website can not be used.

Google's Terms of Use can be viewed at www.google.com/intl/en/policies/terms/regional.html, and the additional Google Maps terms of service can be found at www.google.com/intl/en_US/help/terms_maps.html

Google Seach Console

We use the Google Search Console to technically monitor the website for errors. The Google Search Console is a free service from Google that allows us to monitor and manage our presence in the Google search index. It gives us access to much of the data and information Google has about our site. With regard to data protection, the use of the Google Search Console is harmless because no user or tracking data is transmitted from our site to Google, but we only receive data from Google about our web presence. You can find information about data protection at Google here: policies.google.com

10) Tools and Miscellaneous

Google Maps

On our website, we use Google Maps (API) from Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (land) maps to visually display geographic information. The use of this service will show you our location and facilitate your arrival.

When you visit any of the subpages where the Google Maps map is incorporated, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Google's servers in the United States and stored there. This is done regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in to, or if there is no user account. When you're logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for non-logged-in users) as usage profiles and evaluates them. According to Art. 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR, such an evaluation is based on the legitimate interests of Google in the display of personalized advertising, market research and / or tailor-made design of its website. You have a right of objection to the formation of these user profiles, and you must comply with this to Google.

US-based Google LLC is certified under the US Privacy Shield, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection in the EU.

If you disagree with the future transmission of your data to Google when using Google Maps, you can also disable the Google Maps web service completely by turning off the JavaScript application in your browser. Google Maps and the map display on this website can not be used.

Google's Terms of Use can be viewed at www.google.com/intl/en/policies/terms/regional.html, and the additional Google Maps terms of service can be found at www.google.com/intl/en_US/help/terms_maps.html

8.1 Facebook plugins with Shariff solution

Our website uses so-called social plugins ("plugins") of the social network Facebook operated by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA ("Facebook").
In order to increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, these buttons are not fully integrated as plugins, but only by using an HTML link in the page. This type of engagement will ensure that when you visit a page on our site that contains such buttons, we will not connect to the Facebook servers. If you click on the button, a new browser window opens and calls up the Facebook page, where you can interact with the plugins there (if necessary after entering your login data).
Based in the US, Facebook Inc. is certified to the US Privacy Shield, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection in the EU.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your related rights and settings options for the protection of your privacy, please refer to the privacy policy of Facebook: www.facebook.com/policy.php

8.2 LinkedIn plugin as Shariff solution

Our website uses social plugins ("plugins") from the LinkedIn online service operated by LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("LinkedIn").
In order to increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, these buttons are not fully integrated as plugins, but only by using an HTML link in the page. This type of engagement ensures that when you visit a page on our site that contains such buttons, we will not connect to LinkedIn's servers. If you click on the button, a new browser window opens and calls up the LinkedIn page, where you can interact with the plugins there (if necessary after entering your login data).

Our website uses so-called social plugins ("plugins") from the Twitter microblogging service operated by Twitter Inc., 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA ("Twitter").
In order to increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are initially disabled via the so-called "2-click" solution integrated into the page. Deactivated plugins can be recognized by the fact that they are grayed out. This integration ensures that when you visit a page of our website that contains such plugins, no connection is established with the servers of Twitter. Only if you activate the plugins and thus according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO give your consent to the data transmission, your browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of Twitter. The content of the respective plugin is transmitted directly to your browser and integrated into the page. The plugin then transmits data (including your IP address) to Twitter. We have no control over the amount of data Twitter collects using the plugins. In any case, according to our knowledge, Twitter receives information about which of our websites you have currently accessed and previously visited. By integrating the plugins, Twitter also receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website if you do not have a profile on Twitter or are currently not logged in. The collected information (including your IP address) will be transmitted from your browser directly to a server from Twitter to the USA and stored there. If you interact with the plugins, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a server of Twitter and stored there. The information will also be posted on Twitter and displayed there to your contacts.
You can revoke your consent at any time by deactivating the activated plugin by clicking again. However, the revocation has no influence on the data that has already been transmitted to Twitter.
Based in the US, Twitter Inc. is certified to the US Privacy Shield, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection in the EU.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Twitter as well as your rights and options to protect your privacy, please refer to the privacy policy of Twitter: twitter.com/privacy
