§ 8 Use of social plugins from Facebook using the "2-click solution"
Social plugins ("plugins") from the social network Facebook are used on our website. This service is offered by the company Facebook Inc. ("Provider").

Facebook is operated by Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). An overview of the Facebook plugins and their appearance can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/

In order to increase the protection of your data when you visit our website, the plugins are integrated into the page by means of a so-called "2-click solution". This integration ensures that no connection to the Facebook servers is established when you access a page on our website that contains such plugins. Your browser only establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers when you activate the plugins and thus give your consent to data transmission. The content of the respective plugin is transmitted directly to your browser and integrated into the page. By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook profile or are not currently logged in. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the "Like" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on Facebook and displayed to your contacts there.
