5 Social media links
We have integrated social media platforms through into our services, which may result in the social media provider receiving data from you. If you click on the social media link, the website of the respective social media provider is loaded. By loading the website of the respective social media provider via our services, the respective reference data is transmitted to the respective social media provider. The social media provider thereby receives the information that you have visited us.
Note on data processing to the United States:
If you click on a social media link, data about you may be processed by the respective provider in the United States. According to the European Court of Justice, the data protection standard in the United States is not adequate and there is a risk that your data will be processed by the U.S. authorities for control and monitoring purposes, possibly also without any legal remedy. Provided that you do not click on the links of the social media providers, no data transfer takes place.
Further information on data processing by the social media providers can be found here:
