Social plugins (Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram)

Our website uses so-called "social plugins." Currently, these are plugins from the services Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram. These plugins may transmit data, potentially including personal data, to the US-based service providers, who may then use it.

Shariff protection tool

HYPOXI itself does not collect any personal data via the social plugins or through their use. To prevent data from being transferred to service providers in the USA without the user's knowledge, HYPOXI uses the so-called Shariff solution. This solution ensures that no personal data is initially transmitted to the providers of the individual social plugins when you visit the HYPOXI website. Only when you click on a plugin can data be transferred to the service provider and stored there.

Information

More information about the Shariff solution can be found on the website of the provider, Heise Medien GmbH & Co. KG: https://www.heise.de/hintergrund/Ein-Shariff-fuer-mehr-Datenschutz-2467514.html.

Access by the service providers

The service provider then receives information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. You do not need to have an account with this service provider or be logged in. If you are logged in to the service provider, this data will be directly associated with your account. If you click on one of the social plugins and, for example, share the page, the service provider will also store this information in your user account and share it publicly with your contacts.

If you do not want the service provider to associate your activity with your profile, you must log out before clicking on one of the social plugins.

HYPOXI has no control over whether and to what extent service providers collect personal data. We are also unaware of the scope, purpose, and storage period of data collection. It must be assumed that at least the IP address and device-related information are collected and used. It is also possible that the service providers use cookies.
