The SMWK is represented on various social media platforms in order to provide you with information and other contact options.
Due to our legitimate interest in the analysis, optimisation and operation of our online services as well as the presentation of the SMWK to the outside world and the use of social media as a further information and communication channel (within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR), our website uses so-called social media plugins.
The plugins establish a direct connection between your browser and the respective servers of the platform operators. We have no influence whatsoever on what data is transmitted to them.
Furthermore, the plugins inform the respective platform operators that you as a user have visited our website. There is a possibility that your IP address will be saved. If you are logged into your respective account during your visit to our website, this information will be linked to it. If you use the functions of the plugin - for example by ‘sharing’ or ‘liking’ a post - the corresponding information will also be transmitted to the respective platform.
If you want to prevent the platform operators from linking this data to your account, please log out of your account before visiting our website and delete the stored cookies. You can make further settings for data processing for advertising purposes or object to the use of your data for advertising purposes via your profile.
You can find out which data, for what purpose and to what extent the platforms collect, use and process data and what rights and settings options you have to protect your privacy in the privacy policies of the respective platform operators.
We use social media plug-ins from social networks on our website. We use the so-called ‘two-click solution’ Shariff from c't or heise.de: https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html; Service provider: Heise Medien GmbH & Co.

When our website is accessed, no personal data is transmitted to the third-party providers of the social plug-ins via ‘Shariff’. Next to the logo or brand of the social network you will find a slider with which you can activate the plug-in by clicking on it. This activation constitutes your consent in the form that the respective provider of the social network receives the information that you have accessed our website and your personal data is transmitted to the provider of the plug-in and stored there. These are so-called third party cookies. Some providers, such as Facebook and XING, state that your IP is anonymised immediately after collection. The plug-in provider stores the data collected about the user as usage profiles. You can revoke your consent at any time by deactivating the slider.
Purpose of data processing: Improving and optimising our website; increasing our visibility via social networks; enabling interaction with you and users among each other via social networks; advertising, analysis and/or needs-based design of the website.

If you have given your consent, Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC, is used on our website. The controller for users in the EU/EEA and Switzerland is Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (‘Google’)
Google Analytics is a web analysis service that uses cookies to enable an analysis of users' surfing behaviour. Web analysis is the collection, collation and evaluation of data about the behaviour of visitors to websites.
This enables us to analyse your use of our website. The information collected by means of cookies about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server and stored there.
On behalf of the Saxon State Ministry of Science, Culture and Tourism, Google will use this information to analyse your use of the website and to compile reports on website activity. The reports provided by Google Analytics are used to analyse the performance of our website.
We use the User ID function. With the help of the user ID, we can assign a unique, permanent ID to one or more sessions (and the activities within these sessions) and analyse user behaviour across devices.
Recipients of the data are/may be:
The following data may be transmitted:
The following data may be transmitted:
When you visit our website, this personal data is transferred to Google's servers and stored. It cannot be ruled out that US authorities may access the data stored by Google.
The anonymisation of IP addresses is activated by default in Google Analytics. Due to IP anonymisation, your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. According to Google, the IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
You can prevent tracking by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link:

Sofar as data is processed outside the EU/EEA and there is no level of data protection corresponding to the European standard, we have concluded EU standard contractual clauses with the service provider to establish an appropriate level of data protection. The parent company of Google Ireland, Google LLC, is based in California, USA. A transfer of data to the USA and access by US authorities to the data stored by Google cannot be ruled out. The USA is currently considered a third country from a data protection perspective. You do not have the same rights there as within the EU/EEA. You may not be entitled to any legal remedies against access by authorities.
The processing of data and use of analysis tools takes place on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.
Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to analyse the use of our website, to compile online reports for us that show the activities on our website and to provide other services in connection with the use of our website.
Google Analytics places a cookie on the data subject's IT system. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyse the use of our website. Each time you access one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the SMWK and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, your browser is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google receives knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the person concerned, which Google uses, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently to enable commission settlements.
The purpose of using analytics cookies is to improve the quality of our website and its content. Through the analysis cookies, we learn how the website is used and can constantly optimise our offer.
These cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted by it to our website. As a user, you therefore have full control over the use of cookies. You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your browser. The data sent by us and linked to cookies is automatically deleted after 2 months. Data that has reached the end of its retention period is automatically deleted once a month.
You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by going to the cookie settings and changing your choices there. This does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation. Furthermore, you can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as already described above, at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on your computer or browser. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the browser or other software programs.
Furthermore, the data subject has the possibility to object to the collection of the data generated by Google Analytics relating to the use of this website as well as to the processing of this data by Google and to prevent such processing. To do this, the data subject must download and install a browser add-on at the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl . This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information about website visits may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered by Google to be an objection. If the information technology system of the data subject is deleted, formatted or reinstalled at a later time, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on in order to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or another person attributable to his/her sphere of control, there is the possibility of reinstallation or reactivation of the browser add-on.
For more information and Google's applicable privacy policy, please visit https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/terms/en/. Google Analytics is explained in more detail at this link https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential data, our website uses SSL encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser line. If encryption is active, the data you transmit to us via the website cannot theoretically be read by third parties.
You as a user of our website can exercise your right to object and object to the processing of your personal data at any time.
