V. Use of third-party provider plug-ins (e.g. social media plug-ins or online map service plug-ins)

So-called “third-party provider plug-ins” are embedded in the website, with which you can use functions on the website offered by third-party providers. The plug-ins are embedded in the website by way of a “2-click solution”. With this solution, the relevant plug-in is not activated directly when the website is accessed, but only once you click on the activation button provided for the relevant plug-in.

If you activate a third-party provider plug-in, you use a function offered by the provider of the respective plug-in under their own responsibility, which is only visually embedded in the presentation of our website. When activating the respective plug-in, the provider of the respective plug-in may receive personal data from you. When activating the respective plug-in, the provider of the respective plug-in may also use cookies (→ Section C).

You receive more detailed information on this below:

1. Third-party provider plug-ins embedded in the website

The following third-party provider plug-ins are embedded in the website, with which you can use the functions on the website offered by third-party providers:

2. Processing of personal data by provider of the third-party provider plug-in

The third-party provider plug-ins are embedded in the website by means of a “2-click solution”. With this solution, the relevant plug-in is not activated directly when the website is accessed, but only once you click on the activation button provided for the relevant plug-in. The activation button contains the designation of the relevant plug-in and, if applicable, a logo of the third-party provider.

It is ensured with the 2-click solution that your internet browser does not initially connect to the servers of the provider of the relevant plug-in when you access the website. When you access the website, the provider of the relevant plug-in therefore initially cannot collect any personal data regarding you via the relevant plug-in. The relevant plug-in is only activated in case you click on the button provided for activating the relevant plug-in. Once activated, a connection is established to the servers of the provider of the relevant plug-in. The provider of the relevant plug-in can also receive personal data from you when the relevant plug-in is activated. The activation of the relevant plug-in can be compared technically with clicking on a link to an external website, with the difference that the content requested in the process does not appear in a new window/tab of your internet browser, but is visually embedded in our website. The data exchange initiated by you by activating and using the plug-in only takes place between your internet browser and the servers of the provider of the relevant plug-in. If you activate a third-party provider plug-in, you therefore use a function offered by the provider of the relevant plug-in under its responsibility, which is visually embedded in the layout of our website.

When the relevant plug-in is activated, the provider of the relevant plug-in can (comparable to accessing an external website via a link) in particular receive your IP address and the address (URL) of the website, from where you carried out the activation. The provider of the relevant activated plug-in can also receive information from any cookies of the relevant provider stored in your internet browser. The provider of the relevant plug-in can therefore, due to the activation of the relevant plug-in initiated by you, already receive at least the information that our website has been accessed from the IP address allocated to you at the time of access. If you are registered as a user with the relevant third-party provider, the provider of the relevant plug-in can also typically allocate the data it received to your user account. We advise you that we do not have any knowledge about the personal data the provider actually obtains. We also do not have any knowledge about specific purposes of the processing of data collected by the provider of the relevant plug-in or about any further details of the data processing of the relevant provider. In particular, we also do not know whether the relevant provider only processes the data collected to provide the function of the relevant plug-in (e.g. to share certain content or to make a comment) or, beyond this, for any other purposes (e.g. to create usage profiles or to personalise advertising).

3. Data transfer to providers in third countries without an appropriate level of security

If the provider of a plug-in activated by you is not located in a Member State of the European Union (EU) or in a Signatory State of the European Economic Area (EEA), no adequacy decision of the EU Commission exists for the relevant third country and no suitable safeguards are provided for, there is the risk that the recipient does not have an appropriate level of security. This means that your personal data which the third-party provider receives from you may not be subject to a level of security comparable to the General Data Protection Regulation. This in particular means there may not be compliance with the principles for the processing of personal data laid down in Article 5 of the General Data Protection Regulation. It may also be the case that no enforceable rights or effective remedies are available to you with respect to the processing of personal data. We inform you when you activate the relevant plug-in about these risks which may exist for you regarding such data transfers without the existence of an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards. If you click of the activation button provided for the relevant plug-in, you accept these possible risks in your own responsibility.
