Share buttons that protect your privacy
In order to implement share buttons, and connect them to the relevant external sites, scripts are often added from domains outside of the website you are visiting. You should be aware that these sites are likely to be tracking what you are doing all around the internet, even if you do not click any of these buttons. We want to protect your online privacy by making sure they don’t get your data in the first place. Hawthornpress.com therefore tries to avoid loading external embeds directly and lets the user control which one should be loaded
Hawthornpress.com uses a solution called Shariff made by German computer magazine c’t and heise online. Shariff replaces the usual share buttons of social networks described above. As a result, buttons and share counts work without a connection between your browser and social networks (unless you decide to share, of course).
