Use of social media plugins

Social media plug-ins are applications that allow content to be accessed or shared through different service providers.
On pages containing such plugins, a direct connection to the server of the respective network is established via your browser as soon as they are clicked on. This provides the network with information about the use of this site. If you are logged in to the respective network at this time, your visit to our website and all interactions in connection with the social media plug-ins (e.g. clicking the "Like" button, creating a comment, etc.) can be assigned to your profile and saved by the network. Even if you do not have your own profile, it cannot be ruled out that data will be saved. We would like to point out that, as the provider of our pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or their use by the social media offers. To minimize data collection by social media providers, log out of the networks before you visit our website.

Our pages include functions from Youtube.
