Visiting our website and using it for purely informational purposes is possible without you having to provide (through registration or transmission in online forms) personal data, such as your name, postal address or email address, or us to collect such personal data.

However, in order to be able to view our website and to use it in a user-friendly, effective, stable and secure manner, we automatically collect and process the necessary (pseudonymous) technical data in conjunction with your end device and your browser.

The legal basis for this data processing of the server log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR, which permits the processing of personal data within the scope of our "legitimate interests", unless your basic rights, fundamental freedoms or interests outweigh the data processing.

Furthermore, this may include cookies that allow us to provide users with certain functions on the platform (e.g. playing certain content) and set them according to the user's preferences (e.g. language).

3.4 USE OF GOOGLE ANALYTICS

We use Google Analytics on our website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google. The operator responsible for the provision of Google Analytics in the European market is Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

Google Analytics uses cookies that enable an analysis of your use of our website. The information collected with the help of the cookies about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. These servers are operated by Google LLC.  

During your visit to the website, your user behaviour is recorded in the form of "events". Events can be: page visits, first visit to the website, session start, your "click path", interaction with the website, scrolling (whenever a user scrolls to the bottom of the page (90%)), clicks on external links, internal search queries, interaction with videos, file downloads, ads seen/clicked, language setting.

In addition, the following personal data is collected: Your approximate location (region), your IP address (in shortened form), technical information about your browser and the devices you use (e.g. language setting, screen resolution), your internet service provider, the referrer URL (via which website/advertising medium you came to this website).

Google Analytics has activated IP address anonymisation by default. Through IP anonymisation, your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the EU or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA). Only in special situations the full IP address will be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. According to Google, the IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other personal data from Google.

Google will process the aforementioned information for the purpose of analysing your use of the website and to compile reports on website activity for us. The reports provided to us by Google Analytics will be used to analyse the performance of the website.  

The personal data collected and linked to the cookies set by Google Analytics are automatically deleted after 2 months. The deletion of personal data whose retention period has been reached takes place automatically once a month.

You can withdraw from your consent at any time with future effect by accessing the settings of our consent management tool and changing your selection there. Please note that the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until withdrawal from it remains unaffected by this.

In addition, you can prevent the transfer to Google and the processing by Google of the data generated by the cookie relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

For more information on Google Analytics' terms of use and Google's privacy policy, please see the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de

‍

3.5. Google Tag Manager

We use the Google Tag Manager on our website. The operator responsible for the provision of the Google Tag Manager in the European market is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. We use the Google Tag Manager to deploy and manage tools (e.g. Google Analytics) that we use on our website. The tools deployed via the Google Tag Manager may set cookies in your browser and process personal data. Information on the tools deployed can be found in the relevant section of this privacy policy. The Google Tag Manager itself processes your IP address, which may also be transmitted to Google’s servers in the USA.

The legal basis for the use of the Google Tag Manager is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

‍

3.6. GOOGLE ADS

We use the Google Ads service to draw attention to our offers with the help of advertisements. If you access our website via a Google ad, Google Ads will store a cookie in your terminal device. The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR, i.e. the integration only takes place after your consent.

The advertising material is delivered by Google via so-called "ad servers". For this purpose, we and other websites use so-called ad server cookies, through which certain parameters for measuring success, such as display of the ads or clicks by users, can be measured. Through the Google Ads cookies stored on our website, we can obtain information about the success of our advertising campaigns. These cookies are not intended to identify you personally. For this cookie, the unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions) and opt-out information (marking that a user no longer wishes to be addressed) are usually stored as analysis values.

The cookies set by Google enable Google to recognize your internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of the website of an Ads customer and the cookie stored on his computer has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. A different cookie is assigned to each Ads customer, so the cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of other Ads customers. Through the integration of Google Ads, Google receives the information that you have called up the relevant part of our website or clicked on an ad from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, there is the possibility that the provider learns your IP address and stores it.

Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We ourselves do not independently collect personal data in the aforementioned advertising measures, but provide Google alone with the opportunity to collect the data. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google that provide information about which ads were clicked on how often and at what prices. We do not receive any further data from the use of the advertising media; in particular, we cannot identify users on the basis of this information.

You may revoke your consent at any time without affecting the permissibility of the processing until revocation. The easiest way to revoke your consent is via our consent management tool or via the following functions: a) by setting your browser software accordingly, in particular the suppression of third-party cookies will result in you not receiving any third-party ads; b) by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain "www.googleadservices.com", www.google. de/settings/ads, deleting this setting when you delete your cookies; c) by disabling the interest-based ads of the providers that are part of the self-regulatory campaign "About Ads" via the link www.aboutads.info/choices, deleting this setting when you delete your cookies; d) by permanently disabling them in your Firefox, Internetexplorer or Google Chrome browsers at the link www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. We would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this offer in full.

3.7. Facebook Visitor Tracker

We use the "visitor action pixel" of Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin, D02, Ireland ("Meta")) on our website. This allows us to track users' behavior after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Meta ad. This allows us to measure the effectiveness of Meta ads for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected in this way is anonymous to us, i.e. we do not see the personal data of individual users.

When the website is accessed, the pixel is integrated directly by Meta and may store a cookie on your device. If you subsequently log in to Meta or are already logged in to Meta, your website visit will be noted in your profile. The collected user data is anonymous for us and thus does not allow any conclusion about the identity of the user. However, this data is stored and processed by Meta, which is why we inform you based on our knowledge of the situation. Meta may link this information to your Meta account and also use it for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with Meta k's Data Use Policy:

https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/You may allow Meta and its partners to serve ads on and off Meta. A cookie may also be stored on your computer for these purposes. The legal basis for the use of this service is consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.
