Social Media Plug-ins:
We use the social media plug-ins listed below on our website to raise awareness of our company. Responsibility for ensuring compliance with data protection regulations rests with the respective providers.

If you use the services of these social networks independently or in connection with our website, your browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of the social media plug-ins and evaluates this information (including your IP address).

This information can be published on your profile and displayed to your contacts there.
