When a user calls up a function of this online offer that contains such a plugin, his or her device establishes a direct connection with Facebook's servers.
The content of the plugin is transmitted by Facebook directly to the user's device and integrated by the latter into the online offer. In the process, usage profiles of the users can be created from the processed data. We therefore have no influence on the scope of the data that Facebook collects with the help of this plugin and therefore inform users according to our level of knowledge.
By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that a user has accessed the corresponding page of the online offer.
If the user is logged into Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to his Facebook account. If users interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the Like button or posting a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted from your device directly to Facebook and stored there. If a user is not a member of Facebook, there is still the possibility that Facebook will learn and store his or her IP address. According to Facebook, only an anonymized IP address is stored in Germany.
The
purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as the related rights and settings options for protecting the privacy of users, can be found in the privacy notices of Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

Shariff sharing functions
We use the privacy-safe "Shariff" buttons. "Shariff" was developed to allow more privacy on the net and to replace the usual "share" buttons of social networks. In doing so, not the user's browser, but rather the server on which this online offer is located, establishes a connection with the server of the respective social media platforms and queries, e.g., the number of likes, etc. The user remains anonymous. More information about the Shariff project can be found at the developers of the magazine c't: www.ct.de.
