Google Analytics 

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Inc. (“Google”). It is used on the basis of Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter f of the GDPR. Google Analytics uses so-called „cookies“, text files that are stored on your computer and that enable your use of the website to be analyzed. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website such as Browser type / version, operating system used, referrer URL (the previously visited page), host name of the accessing computer (IP address), time of the server request, are usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. We have also added the code “anonymizeIP” to Google Analytics on this website. This guarantees that your IP address is masked so that all data is collected anonymously. The full IP address is only transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. 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 functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading the browser plug-in available under the following link and install: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting data by clicking on this link. An opt-out cookie will be set which prevents the future collection of your data when you visit this website. The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you will have to set the opt-out cookie again. [Note You can find information on integrating the opt-out cookie at: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/gajs/?hl=de#disable].

Facebook pixels, custom audiences and Facebook conversion

The so-called “Facebook pixel” of the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbor, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”), is used within our online offer. With the help of the Facebook pixel, Facebook is on the one hand able to determine the visitors of our online offer as a target group for the presentation of advertisements (so-called „Facebook ads“). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel to only display the Facebook ads placed by us to Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our online offer or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products based on the visited Websites) that we transmit to Facebook (so-called „Custom Audiences“). With the help of the Facebook pixel, we would also like to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of the users and are not annoying. With the help of the Facebook pixel, we can also understand the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether users have been redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called „conversion“). The processing of the data by Facebook takes place within the framework of Facebook’s data usage guidelines. Accordingly, general information on the presentation of Facebook ads can be found in Facebook’s data usage guidelines: https://www.facebook.com/policy. Special information and details about the Facebook pixel and how it works can be found in the Facebook help section: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/651294705016616. If we ask the user for consent (e.g. in the context of a cookie consent), the legal basis for this processing is Article 6 (1) lit. GDPR. Otherwise, the personal data of the users are processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.f. GDPR). You can object to the collection by the Facebook pixel and the use of your data to display Facebook ads. To set which types of advertisements are shown to you within Facebook, you can call up the page set up by Facebook and follow the instructions there on the settings for usage-based advertising: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads. The settings are platform-independent, i.e. they are adopted for all devices such as desktop computers or mobile devices. You can also use cookies for range measurement and advertising purposes via the deactivation page of the network advertising initiative (http://optout.networkadvertising.org/) and the US website (http://www.aboutads.info/) choices) or the European website (http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices/).
