The server may be located outside the EU or the EEA (e.g., in the USA). If you want to prevent a data exchange between your system and Social Media Plugins, you should log out of the social media before using the Site. You should also activate private mode in your browser's data privacy settings. It also helps to deactivate or limit cookies in your browser settings so that third parties cannot track your browsing behaviour.
