We use the plugin "Sassy Social Share" on our website. "Sassy Social Share" replaces the native share buttons of social networks and thus protects their anonymity.

By clicking on the corresponding graphic you will be redirected to the service of the respective network. The respective button establishes direct contact between the social network and you only when you actively click on the Share button. Only then will your data be transferred to the respective social network. If, on the other hand, the button is not clicked, no data exchange between you and the social networks takes place. The networks are listed separately below.
