Any additional information you provide is voluntary and will be used to address you personally. We use the double opt-in procedure to send the newsletter. This means that we will only send you an email newsletter once you have expressly confirmed that you agree to receive the newsletter. We will then send you a confirmation email asking you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter in future by clicking on a corresponding link.
By activating the confirmation link, you give us your consent to use your personal data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

6) Use of social media: Social plugins
Facebook as default plugin
Our website uses social plugins (“plugins”) from the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA (“Facebook”). The plugins are marked with a Facebook logo or the addition “Social plugin from Facebook” or “Facebook Social Plugin”. An overview of the Facebook plugins and their appearance can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins
When you visit a page on our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook's servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser and integrated into the page. Through this integration, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook profile or are not currently logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.
If you are logged into Facebook, Facebook can immediately associate your visit to our website with your Facebook profile. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the “Like” button or posting a comment, this information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on your Facebook profile and displayed to your Facebook friends.
The data processing operations described are carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of Facebook's legitimate interests in displaying personalized advertising to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website and to tailor the service to your needs. If you do not want Facebook to assign the data collected via our website directly to your Facebook profile, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website. You can also prevent the Facebook plugins from loading and thus the data processing operations described above in the future by using add-ons for your browser, e.g. the script blocker “NoScript”. (http://noscript.net/).
Facebook Inc., based in the USA, is certified under the US-European data protection agreement “Privacy Shield,” which ensures compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU.
For information on the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by Facebook, as well as your rights in this regard and settings options for protecting your privacy, please refer to Facebook's privacy policy: http://www.facebook.com/policy.php
