Twitter and the retweet functions are services of Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107 (“Twitter”). This website uses the Twitter button. The button is marked with the “Twitter” logo.
When a page on our website is accessed, the browser creates a direct link with the Twitter servers. The button is transferred directly from Twitter to the browser, which then integrates it into the website.
Via this integrated button, Twitter receives the information that the corresponding website page was accessed. If the visitor of the relevant page is logged into their Twitter account at the time of the visit, then Twitter can allocate the visit to the Twitter account of the user. If the button is clicked, then the browser sends the corresponding information directly to Twitter, where it is stored.
