Use of Facebook Social Plugins:
This website uses social plugins ("plugins") from the social network Facebook, operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). The plugins are identified by a Facebook logo or the phrase "Facebook Social Plugin". An overview of the Facebook plugins and their appearance can be found here:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins
When a user visits a page on the LECON website that contains such a plugin, their browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook's servers. The plugin's content is transmitted directly from Facebook to the user's browser and integrated into the website. By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives information that the user's browser has accessed the corresponding page of the LECON website, even if the user does not have a Facebook account or is not currently logged in to Facebook. This information (including the user's IP address) is transmitted directly from the user's browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there. If the user is logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly associate the visit to the LECON website with their Facebook account. If the user interacts with the plugins, for example, by clicking the "Like" button or leaving a comment, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. This information is also published on Facebook and displayed to the user's Facebook friends. Facebook may use this information for advertising, market research, and to tailor the design of Facebook pages to user needs. For this purpose, Facebook creates usage, interest, and relationship profiles, for example, to evaluate the use of the LECON website in relation to the advertisements displayed to the user on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about activities on the LECON website, and to provide other services related to the use of Facebook. If the user does not want Facebook to associate the data collected via the LECON website with their Facebook account, the user must log out of Facebook before visiting the LECON website. The purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by Facebook, as well as related rights and privacy settings, can be found in Facebook's privacy policy.

When you visit a website that includes the "Pin It" button, your browser establishes a direct connection to Pinterest's servers, and Pinterest automatically stores information on its servers that your browser sends when you visit a website or that your mobile app sends when you use it. This log data may include your IP address, the address of the websites you visit that have Pinterest features (e.g., our website), your browser type and settings, the date and time of your request, your use of Pinterest, and cookies. Please note that as the provider of our website, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or how Pinterest uses it. You can find more information in Pinterest's privacy policy.

Social Media (Facebook, YouTube, Instagram):
On the LECON website, users will find links to the social media services of Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram. These links are identifiable by the respective company logo. Following these links takes users to LECON's profile on the respective social media platform. Clicking a link establishes a connection to the social media service's servers. This transmits information to the social media service's servers indicating that the user has visited the LECON website. Furthermore, additional data is transferred to the social media service provider. This includes, for example, the address of the website containing the activated link, the date and time the website was accessed or the link was activated, information about the browser and operating system used, and the IP address. If the user is already logged into the relevant social media service when activating the link, the social media service provider may be able to determine the user's username and possibly even their real name from the transmitted data and associate this information with their personal user account on the social media service. The user can prevent this association with their personal user account by logging out of their account beforehand. The servers of the social media services are located in the USA and other countries outside the European Union. Therefore, the data may also be processed by the social media service provider in countries outside the European Union. It should be noted that companies in these countries are subject to data protection laws that generally do not protect personal data to the same extent as in the member states of the European Union. It should also be noted that LECON has no influence on the scope, nature, and purpose of the data processing carried out by the social media service provider. Users can find more detailed information about the use of user data by the social media services integrated on the LECON website in the privacy policy of the respective social media service.
