Without your express consent, no links will be created to the social network servers and therefore no data will be transmitted.
“Shariff” is a development by the specialists at the computer magazine c't. It enables more privacy online and replaces the usual “share” buttons on social networks. You can find more information about the Shariff project here https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html .
If you click on the buttons, a pop-up window will appear in which you can log in with your data to the respective provider. Only after you have actively logged in will a direct connection to the social networks be established.
By logging in, you give your consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social media provider. Both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this association by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and activating the buttons. The following social networks are integrated using the “Shariff” function.
Further information on the scope and purpose of the collection and use of the data as well as your rights in this regard and options for protecting your privacy can be found in the linked data protection information of the providers.
