1. Use of Facebook Social Plugins
Our website uses social plugins from the social network facebook.com, operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. The plugins are identified by a Facebook logo or the 'Facebook Social Plugin' notice. When you access a page from our website that includes a plugin like this, your browser creates a direct connection with the Facebook server. Content from the plugin is transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser and then integrated into the website.
Through plugin integration, Facebook receives information that you have accessed the corresponding page from our website. If you are logged into Facebook then Facebook can associate this visit with your Facebook account. If you interact with these plugins, for example by clicking the 'Like' button or by adding a comment, the corresponding information will then be sent directly to Facebook and stored by them.
To learn more about the purpose and extent of data collection, processing and the use of this data by Facebook as well as all your relevant rights and the settings available for the protection of your privacy, please see Facebook's privacy policy.
