6. Social Plugins
Our Website uses social plugins ("Plugins") from the social
networks facebook.com ("Facebook"), plus.google.com ("Google +")
and micro-blogging service twitter.com ("Twitter").
Facebook
is a social network, operated by Facebook Inc. (1601 S.
California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA). When You visit a page
of Our Website that contains a Facebook Plugin, Your browser
establishes a direct connection to Facebook servers. Facebook
directly transfers the Plugin content to Your browser, which embeds
the latter into the Website, enabling Facebook to receive
information about Your having accessed the respective page of Our
Website. We have no influence on the data gathered by the Plugin
and inform You according to Our state of knowledge.
If You are logged into Facebook, Your visit can be assigned to
Your Facebook account. If You interact with the Plugins, for
example by clicking "Like", or by entering a comment, the
corresponding information is transmitted from Your browser directly
to Facebook and stored by it. If You are a Facebook member and do
not want Facebook to connect the data concerning Your visit to Our
Website with Your member data already stored by Facebook, please
log off Facebook before entering Our Website. Even if You are not
logged into Facebook, there is possibility that the Plugins
transmits Your IP-address to Facebook. For the information on the
purpose and scope of data collection and procession by Facebook, as
well as Your rights in this respect and settings options for
protecting your privacy please visit Facebook's privacy

Google +
is a social network that is operated by Google Inc. (1600
Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). When You visit
a page of Our Website that contains such a Plugin, Your browser
connects directly with the servers of Google. The content of the
Plugin is transmitted directly to Your browser from Google, which
is then used to incorporate it into the website. We therefore have
no influence on the extent of data that Google collects through the
Plugin. According to Google, if one does not click on the Plugin,
no personal data is collected. Such data, including the IP address,
is only collected and processed for logged-in members. If You are a
Google + member and do not wish for Google to use Our Internet
presence as a way to collect information about You and to link this
information with the membership data about You which Google has
stored, then you must log out of Google + before visiting Our
Website. The purpose and extent of data collection, the further
processing and use of data by Google, as well as Your rights in
this regard and the various possible settings to protect Your
privacy are to be found in Google's data protection guidelines

Twitter
is a micro-blogging service, provided by Twitter Inc. (795 Folsom
St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). When You visit a
page on Our Website that includes such a Plugin, Your browser
connects directly with the servers at Twitter. The content of the
Plugin is transferred from Twitter directly to Your browser, which
incorporates it into the website. For this reason, We have no
influence on the amount of data gathered by Twitter with the aid of
this Plugin. We provide this information to the best of Our
knowledge, which is that only the IP address of Your connection and
the URL of Our Website are transmitted when the Plugin is acquired,
but are not used for purposes other than display of the content in
the Plugin.
