Plugins and other services

Use of Google Tag Manager
On our website, we use the Google Tag Manager of Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; "Google"). 
This application manages JavaScript tags and HTML tags that are used to implement, in particular, tracking and analysis tools. Data processing serves the purpose of designing and optimizing our website according to needs.
The Google Tag Manager itself does not store cookies or process personal data. However, it enables the triggering of other tags that can collect and process personal data.

Use of social plug-ins via "Shariff"
We use social network plug-ins on our website. To ensure you retain control over your data, we use data protection-compliant "Shariff" buttons.
Without your express consent, no links to social network servers are established, and consequently, no data is transmitted.
"Shariff" is a development by specialists from the computer magazine c't. It enables more privacy online and replaces the usual "share" buttons of social networks. More information about the Shariff project can be found here https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html.
When you click the buttons, a pop-up window appears where you can log in with your data to the respective provider. Only after this active login by you will a direct connection to the social networks be established.
By logging in, you consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social media provider. This includes, among other things, your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited. If you are simultaneously logged in to one or more of your social network accounts, the collected information will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this assignment by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons. The social networks named below are integrated using the "Shariff" function.
Further information on the scope and purpose of data collection and use, as well as your rights and options for protecting your privacy, can be found in the linked data protection notices of the providers.
