10) ONLINE MARKETING

10.1 DoubleClick by Google

This website uses the online marketing tool DoubleClick by Google operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“DoubleClick”).

DoubleClick uses cookies to show ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads more than once. Using a cookie ID, Google records which ads are shown in which browser and can thus prevent them from being displayed more than once. Processing takes place on the basis of our legitimate interest in the optimal marketing of our website in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

In addition, DoubleClick can use cookie IDs to record so-called conversions that are related to ad requests. This is the case, for example, when a user sees a DoubleClick ad and later visits the advertiser’s website with the same browser and buys something there. According to Google, DoubleClick cookies do not contain any personal information.

Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to Google’s server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our level of knowledge: by integrating DoubleClick, Google receives information that you have accessed the corresponding part of our website or clicked on one of our ads. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered or logged in with Google, there is a possibility that the provider will obtain and store your IP address.

If you wish to opt out of this tracking process, you can disable cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain www.googleadservices.com:
https://www.google.de/settings/ads
(this setting will be deleted if you delete your cookies). Alternatively, you can find out about the setting of cookies and make settings at the Digital Advertising Alliance website at www.aboutads.info. Finally, you can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and can decide individually whether to accept them or exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general. If cookies are not accepted, the functionality of our website may be restricted.

Google LLC, based in the USA, is certified under the EU–US “Privacy Shield” data protection agreement, which ensures compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.

10.2 Use of Google AdWords Conversion Tracking

This website uses the online advertising program “Google AdWords” and, within the framework of Google AdWords, conversion tracking by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). We use the offer of Google AdWords to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites with the help of advertising material (so-called Google AdWords). We can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are in relation to the data of the advertising campaigns. We thereby pursue the interest of showing you advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you, and achieving a fair calculation of advertising costs.

The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an AdWords ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer system. These cookies usually lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. The customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion-tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that personally identifies users.

If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can block this use by deactivating the Google Conversion-Tracking cookie in your internet browser under user settings. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. We use Google AdWords on the basis of our legitimate interest in targeted advertising in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Google LLC, based in the USA, is certified under the EU–US “Privacy Shield” data protection agreement, which ensures compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.

Please note that certain functions of this website may not be available or may be limited if you have disabled the use of cookies.

11) WEB ANALYSIS SERVICES

Google (Universal) Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including the shortened IP address) is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

This website uses Google Analytics exclusively with the extension “_anonymizeIp()”, which ensures anonymisation of the IP address by shortening it and excludes a direct personal reference. Through the extension, your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. In these exceptional cases, processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in the statistical analysis of user behaviour for optimisation and marketing purposes.

On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with further services related to website and internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

As an alternative to the browser plug-in or within browsers on mobile devices, please click on the following link to set an opt-out cookie that will prevent future collection by Google Analytics within this website (this opt-out cookie only works in this browser and only for this domain; if you delete your cookies in this browser, you must click this link again): Disable Google Analytics

Google LLC, based in the USA, is certified under the EU–US “Privacy Shield” data protection agreement, which ensures compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.

This website also uses Google Analytics for a cross-device analysis of visitor flows, which is carried out via a user ID. When a page is accessed for the first time, the user is assigned a unique, permanent and anonymised ID that is set across devices. This makes it possible to assign interaction data from different devices and from different sessions to a single user. The user ID does not contain any personal data and does not transmit any such data to Google.

You can object to the collection and storage of data via the user ID at any time with effect for the future. To do this, you must deactivate Google Analytics on all systems that you use, for example in another browser or on your mobile device.

You can deactivate it using a browser plug-in from Google (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de). As an alternative to the browser plug-in or within browsers on mobile devices, please click on the following link to set an opt-out cookie that will prevent future collection by Google Analytics within this website (this opt-out cookie only works in this browser and only for this domain; if you delete your cookies in this browser, you must click this link again): Disable Google Analytics

12) RETARGETING / REMARKETING / REFERRAL ADVERTISING

Facebook Custom Audience via the pixel method

This website uses the “Facebook Pixel” of Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA (“Facebook”). If express consent is given, this makes it possible to track the behaviour of users after they have seen or clicked a Facebook ad. This procedure is used to evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes and can help to optimise future advertising measures.

The data collected is anonymous to us and does not allow us to draw any conclusions about the identity of users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with Facebook’s data usage policy (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). You can enable Facebook and its partners to place ads on and off Facebook. A cookie may also be stored on your computer for these purposes. These processing operations only take place if express consent is given in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Consent to the use of the Facebook Pixel may only be declared by users who are older than 13 years. If you are younger, we ask you to ask your legal guardians for permission.

Facebook Inc., based in the USA, is certified under the EU–US “Privacy Shield” data protection agreement, which ensures compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.

To deactivate the use of cookies on your computer, you can set your internet browser so that no cookies can be stored on your computer in future or already stored cookies are deleted.
