Data privacy statement for the use of Facebook plugin and Facebook PixelPlugins from social network Facebook, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA are integrated into our websites. You can recognise the Facebook plugins on our website from either the Facebook logo or the "Like button". An overview of the Facebook plugins can be found here:
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
If you visit our pages, the plugin creates a direct link between your browser and the Facebook server. Facebook is informed that you have visited our web page using your IP address. If you click on the Facebook "Like button" while you are logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages with your Facebook profile. Facebook can then assign your visit to our web pages to your user account. Please note that we as providers of the websites do not receive any knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use from Facebook.
We also use the Facebook pixel from Facebook on our website. We have implemented a code for this on our website. The Facebook pixel is an excerpt from JavaScript code that loads a collection of functions with which Facebook can track user actions, provided you have come to our website via Facebook ads. For example, if you purchase a product on our website, the Facebook pixel is triggered and saves your actions on our website in one or more cookies. These cookies enable Facebook to compare your user data (customer data such as IP address, user ID) with the data in your Facebook account. Then Facebook deletes this data again. The data collected is anonymous and cannot be viewed by us and can only be used in the context of advertising. If you are a Facebook user yourself and are logged in the background, your visit to our website is automatically linked with your Facebook user account. This is because we want to show our services and products only to those people who are really interested in them. With the help of Facebook pixels, our advertising measures can be better tailored to your wishes and interests. In this way, Facebook users (provided they have allowed personalized advertising) see appropriate advertising. Furthermore, Facebook uses the collected data for analysis purposes and its own advertisements.
More information can be found in Facebook's data protection statement at
https://en-gb.facebook.com/about/privacyIf you do not wish Facebook to assign your visit to our web pages to your Facebook user account, please log out of your Facebook account after using Facebook.
