This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google and third-party visitor data. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person.

1.2 Google Tag Manager

 

Our website uses Google Tag Manager from Google. Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows marketers to manage website tags from one interface. The tool that implements the tags is a cookie-less domain and does not store any personal data. The tool triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If a deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, this will remain in effect for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.

 

1.3 Google Ads and Google Conversion Tracking

 

Our website uses Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords). Google Ads is an online advertising program from Google.

 

Google Ads enables us to use advertising materials on external websites to draw attention to our offers and to determine how successful individual advertising measures are. This helps us to show you advertising that is of interest to you, to make our website more interesting for you and to achieve a fair calculation of advertising costs.

 

As part of Google Ads, we use so-called conversion tracking. The advertising materials are delivered by Google via so-called “AdServers”. For this purpose, we use so-called ad server cookies, through which certain parameters can be measured to measure success, such as display of ads or clicks by users. If you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set for conversion tracking. Cookies are small text files that the Internet browser stores on the user's computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. These cookies enable Google to recognize your web browser. If you visit certain pages of our website if the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the specific ad and were redirected to this page.

 

Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot therefore be tracked via the websites of Ads customers. The following information is usually stored for the cookie as analysis values: unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions), opt-out information (marking that the user no longer wants to be addressed). The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics


for Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Ads customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, you will not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by easily deactivating the Google Conversion Tracking cookie via your Internet browser under user settings. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

 

The summary of the data collected in your Google account is based solely on your consent, which you can give or revoke at Google (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). For data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g. because you do not have a Google account or have objected to the merger), the collection of data is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest arises from the fact that we have an interest in the anonymized analysis of visitors to our website for advertising purposes in order to optimize both our website and our advertising.

 

Further information and the data protection regulations can be found in Google's data protection declaration at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=de.

 

1.4 Google Remarketing

 

Our website uses the functions of Google Remarketing in conjunction with the cross-device functions of Google Ads and Google DoubleClick from the provider Google.

 

Google Remarketing analyzes your user behavior on our website in order to classify you into specific advertising target groups and then show you appropriate advertising messages when you visit other online offers (remarketing or retargeting).

 

The advertising target groups created with Google Remarketing can be linked to Google's cross-device functions so that interest-based, personalized advertising messages that have been tailored to you depending on your previous usage and surfing behavior on one device can also be shown to you on another of your devices . If you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browser history with your Google account for this purpose. This allows the same personalized advertising messages to appear on every device on which you sign in with your Google account.

 

To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google authenticated user IDs, which are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create audiences for cross-device advertising.

 

You can permanently opt out of cross-device remarketing/targeting by deactivating personalized advertising in your Google Account; To do this, follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.


The summary of the data collected in your Google account is based solely on your consent, which you can give or revoke at Google (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). For data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g. because you do not have a Google account or have objected to the merger), the collection of data is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest arises from the fact that we have an interest in the anonymized analysis of visitors to our website for advertising purposes.

 

Further information and the data protection regulations can be found in Google's data protection declaration at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=de.

 

1.5 Google AdSense

 

Our website uses Google AdSense, a service for integrating advertisements from the provider Google.

Google AdSense also uses so-called web beacons (invisible graphics). These web beacons allow information about visitor traffic on our pages to be statistically evaluated for online marketing.

 

The information generated by cookies and web beacons about the use of our website (including your IP address) and delivery of advertising formats is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. This information may be passed on to third parties by Google. However, Google will not combine your IP address with other data that Google may have stored about you.

 

If you have given your consent, personal data will be stored and processed on the basis of this consent in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. We also have a legitimate interest in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both our website and our advertising.

 

The summary of the data collected in your Google account is based solely on your consent, which you can give or revoke at Google (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR).

 

You can prevent the installation 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 fully use all of the functions of this website. By using this website, you agree to the processing of the data collected about you by Google in the manner and for the purpose described above.

We use “Google Fonts” (formerly “Google Web Fonts”), a service provided by Google, on our website.

 

Google Fonts allows us to use external fonts, so-called Google Fonts. When you access our website, the required Google Font is loaded into the browser cache by your web browser. This is necessary so that your browser can display a visually improved representation of our texts. If your browser does not support this function, your computer will use a standard font for display.

 

The integration of Google Fonts occurs through a server call, usually at a Google server in the USA. This sends information to the server about which of our websites you have visited. The IP address of your device's browser is also stored by Google. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected and processed by Google through the use of Google Fonts.

 

We use Google Fonts for optimization purposes, in particular to improve your use of our website and to make its design more user-friendly.

This is our legitimate interest in the processing of the above data by the third party provider. The legal basis is Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter f GDPR.
