REFERAL AND LINKING TO SOCIAL MEDIA NETWORKS
On our website you will find links to social media networks such as LinkedIn. These are not plugins provided by LinkedIn, which already transmit data to the provider when the page is loaded without the user having any influence.
The buttons for the social media networks merely conceal a link to the social media network, including transfer of the website to be shared. No user data is transmitted from the website to the social media network.
If you are already logged in to the relevant social media service when you click on the button, this will be recognised in the dialogue for sharing the website so that you can share the content directly. If this is not the case, you will be asked to log in to the social media network.
From this point on, you will be on the website of the respective social media network.

The data subject also has the right to restrict data processing if any of the conditions referred to in Art. 18 of the GDPR apply and, in cases referred to in Art. 20 of the GDPR, to the right to data portability. If data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f), the data subject has the right to object to the processing of personal data on grounds relating to his or her particular situation. In such a case, we will then no longer process personal data, unless there are compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
