3. Social Media Buttons with Data Protection
​
We would like to comply with the request of many operators to be able to share articles on the official pages of www.s33spine.com quickly, easily and uncomplicated on social media such as Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn. For this purpose, we have created options to use these services via Social-Media-Button - yet still, protect your privacy. How do we do that?
​
Social-Media-Buttons with data protection (Shariff)
Normally, these social plugins lead to the fact that every visitor of a site is immediately registered by these services with his IP address, and his further activities on the Internet are logged. This happens even if the user does not click on any of the buttons. In order to prevent that, www.s33spine.com uses the Shariff method. Our Social-Media-Button only establishes direct contact between a social network and the visitor when the visitor actively clicks on the ‘Share’ button. If the user is already registered with a social network, this occurs in Facebook and Google+ without another window. In the case of Twitter, a pop-up window appears where one can still edit the text of the tweet.
Therefore, users can share the content of www.s33spine.com on social networks without those creating a complete surfing profile of the user. With the Shariff method, www.s33spine.com considers the data protection interests of its visitors as far as this is possible in accordance with the latest state of technology. The Shariff method is already used by many websites to protect its users. The point of origin was an initiative of Heise.de, where you can find further information on the current status of the discussion.
