12. Social plug-ins
Social plug-ins from Facebook
12.1 We use social plug-ins from facebook.com, operated by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. You can recognise these plug-ins by their Facebook logo.
12.2 Here is an example of how these plug-ins work: If you click on the Facebook “Share” button, the relevant information is transmitted directly from your browser to Facebook and stored there. Facebook will make the shared content public on your Facebook profile. If you are logged in on Facebook, the plug-in can assign the visit of our website directly to your Facebook profile. Facebook may collect information about your website behaviour and that you have accessed our website. We have no influence on the data gathered by the plug-in. Even if you are not logged in or registered on Facebook, there is a possibility that the plug-ins forward your IP-address which is then stored by Facebook. For details about collecting and handling your personal data by Facebook and your related rights, please refer to the Facebook data privacy policy which can be found on www.facebook.com. If you do not want Facebook to link data about you via our website to your Facebook profile, you have to log out of your Facebook profile before you visit our website and change the retargeting settings within your Facebook profile.
Social plug-ins from LinkedIn
12.3 We use plug-ins which are provided by LinkedIn Corporation (LinkedIn), 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. These plug-ins can be identified by the LinkedIn logo and the LinkedIn “Share” button. If you access our website using this plug-in, your browser sets up a direct connection to the LinkedIn servers. LinkedIn receives information that you (your IP-address) has accessed our website. If you click on the LinkedIn “Share” button while you are logged in on your LinkedIn account, you can link certain content on your LinkedIn-Profile which enables LinkedIn to allocate the visit to our website to your LinkedIn account. We do not know the content of the data transferred to LinkedIn or how LinkedIn uses such data.
LinkedIn Insights
12.4 This enables in-depth campaign reporting and unlocks valuable insight about website visitors. The LinkedIn Insight Tag tracks conversions (sign ups), allows for retargeting of ads to website visitors, and unlocks additional insights about members interacting with LinkedIn ads. Details about collecting and handling your personal data by LinkedIn as well as your rights and setting options for protecting your personal information can be found in the LinkedIn privacy policy which can be found at www.linkedin.com. If you do not want to track your behaviour as a LinkedIn member on third-party websites, you can opt out in your LinkedIn settings.
