The Social Share Privacy project was originally started by heise.de. Its purpose is to improve privacy in the internet, especially for social networks, by deactivating the social buttons, so they must be activated first, see

How to protect your visitors data when displaying social share icons.

Since the social buttons are deactivated on loading the site, it can be displayed much faster. Additionally, data protection of users who don't want to share this site on social networks is guaranteed.

The plugin Social Share Privacy Improved is now available for Joomla. The tag { socialshareprivacy } can be added anywhere on the site to display the social buttons, you can add this tag to an article, a module, or even directly in your template. Furthermore, the original project has been improved and optimized by eXtro-media. Requests have been reduced and the output has been changed to CSS styles, which provides better performance, especially on large/high traffic sites.

You can see a demo of this plugin at the bottom of this site. If you click one of the social share icons, it will be activated and visitors can recommend the site via their favourite social platform.
