Social media plugins
To make our website better known, the Fish Tales website uses so-called social media plugins from the following third-party platforms:
- Facebook / Facebook Pixel
- Youtube
In order to increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are integrated into the page using the so-called “2-click solution”. This integration ensures that when you access a page on our website that contains such plugins, no connection is yet established with the servers of the respective providers. Only when you activate the plugins will your browser establish a direct connection to the servers of the activated providers. The content of the respective plugin is then transmitted directly from the provider to your browser and integrated into the page. By integrating the plugins, the providers receive the information that your browser has called up the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a profile with the relevant provider or are currently not logged in to the service of the respective provider. This information (including your IP address) is sent from your browser directly to a server of the respective provider, possibly to a non-EU country and stored there.
If you are logged in to one of the providers’ services, the providers can immediately assign your visit to our website to your profile/account of the respective provider. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the “Like” button or the “Tweet” button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a server of the provider and stored there. The information is also published on the social network or on your social media account and displayed there to your contacts. If you do not want the providers to assign the data collected via our website directly to your profile/account in the respective service, you must log out of the corresponding service before activating the plugins.
Responsibility for data protection-compliant operation must be guaranteed by their respective providers. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the provider as well as your rights and setting options for protecting your privacy can be found in the privacy policy of the provider.
