If e. g. you click Facebook’s "Like" button or write a Facebook comment, this information will be assigned to your personal Facebook account and stored there. Furthermore, as long as you are logged on to Facebook, the information that you have accessed on our site will be forwarded to Facebook regardless of whether you have clicked the component or not. Facebook can use this information for the purpose of advertising, market research and objective-based redesign of the Facebook pages.
