We use the social plugins to make it easier for you to share content from our website. The social plugins help us to increase the visibility of our content on social networks and thus contribute to better promotion of our offerings.

The content of the plugin is transmitted directly to your browser by the social network and integrated into the website by it. This provides the respective provider with the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have an account with this social network or are not currently logged in to it. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted from your browser directly to a server of the provider (usually in the USA) and stored there. We have no influence on the scope of the data that the provider collects with the plugin, although from a data protection perspective, we can to a certain extent be considered jointly responsible with the relevant social network provider.

If you are logged in to the social network, it can assign your visit to our website directly to your user account. If you interact with the plugins, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a server of the provider and stored there. The information (e.g. that you like a product of ours) may also be published on the social network and possibly displayed to other users of the social network. The provider of the social network may use this information for the purpose of placing advertisements and designing a respective offering according to your interests. For this purpose, usage, interest and relationship profiles could be created, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on the social network, to inform other users about your activities on our website and to provide other services associated with the use of the social network. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the providers of the social networks, as well as your rights in this regard and options for changing your settings to protect your privacy can be found directly in the data protection information of the respective provider.

If you do not want the provider of the social network to assign the data collected via our website to your user account, you must log out of the social network before activating the plugins

Your consent forms the legal basis for the data processing described. You can revoke your consent at any time by declaring your revocation to the provider of the plugin in accordance with the information in their data protection notice.

5. Regular deletion of personal data

Unless a specific duration of data storage is specified in this Privacy Policy, we will only process your data as long as this is necessary for the respective purposes or as long as there are legal retention obligations. After the respective processing purpose ceases to apply and retention obligations end, your data will be routinely deleted.

You can request access to your stored data. If you have provided personal data on the basis of a contract or consent, you have the right to receive this data in a standard and machine-readable format.

You can also request the deletion, correction, or restriction of the processing of your data.

You can object to the processing of data processed on the basis of our legitimate interests at any time by contacting us.

In principle, where you have given consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. However, processing activities that have already taken place based on your consent do not become unlawful because of your withdrawal of consent.
