Social media plugins

We use buttons (“plugins”) from social networks on our website so that you can use them to act with and about us. These plugins enable different functions that are specified by the different social networks.

For data protection reasons, we use a so-called 2-click procedure. As a result, you have to activate the function of the respective plug-in for the first time with a first click, which can be recognized by the change in color of the button of the plug-in from gray to colored, before personal data can be collected, stored or processed. You can only carry out the desired interaction with a second click on the plugin button.

We use Shariff Share Button for Facebook, Google+ and Twitter

With Shariff you can use the social media plugins Facebook, Google+ and Twitter without unnecessarily jeopardizing your privacy. The c't project Shariff replaces the usual share buttons on social networks and protects your surfing behavior from prying eyes. Nevertheless, a single click on the button is enough to share information with others. You don't have to do anything else - our webmaster has already taken care of everything. The usual social media buttons transfer your user data to Facebook, Google+ and Twitter every time you visit the website and provide the social networks with precise information about your surfing behavior (user tracking). You do not have to be logged in or be a member of the network. On the other hand, a Shariff button only establishes direct contact between the social network and the visitor when the latter actively clicks on the share button. In this way, Shariff prevents you from leaving a digital trace on every page you visit and improves data protection. Thanks to Shariff, the "likes" are displayed on the heise.de website.

The legal basis for the use of social media plugins in relation to the processing of personal data is Art. 6 Para. 1 f GDPR, whereby our legitimate interest is the provision of interaction options for the purpose of direct advertising (recital 47 GDPR) and the needs-based design of our internet services to interact with social networks to which you belong.

Facebook
