Plug-ins
The Website uses several Plug-ins. When you visit a page on the Website that uses a Plug-in, your browser establishes a direct connection to the server of the applicable third-party software platform (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube) (“Platform”). The Platform then directly transfers the Plug- in content to your browser, which embeds such content on the Website. This process enables the Platform to receive information about your use of the Website. If you are a member of a Platform and logged into your Platform account, then your use of the Website may also be assigned to your Platform account. If you want to prevent such assignment, then please log off from your Platform account before using the Website. For further information regarding the privacy, protection, and processing of your Personal Data by Platforms, please consult their respective privacy statements.
