the button are then transmitted from the social network directly to your browser and incorporated in the

the button or not. If you are logged on to a social network, the network can assign your visit to the website to
your user account.

websites with your membership data, you must log out from the social network concerned before activating
the buttons.

data use policies of the social networks provide information on the purpose and extent of the data that they
collect, how this data is processed and used, the rights available to you and the settings that you can use to
protect your privacy.
