Additional Clauses

Use of external tools on our website:

We have integrated various tools from different companies with our website which allow us to analyze user behavior or establish links with other websites.

For this purpose we work with the following service providers:

Google Analytics

The third-party data processor has integrated the component Google Analytics on this website.

Google Analytics is a website analysis service. Website analysis refers to the collection, recording and analysis of data regarding the behavior of visitors to the website. A website analysis service records e.g. data showing from which website a data subject has come to a website (so-called referrer), which subpages of the website were accessed or how often and how long a subpage was viewed. Website analysis is used mainly for the optimization of a website and for a cost-benefit analysis of Internet adverting.

Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA, is the operator of the Google Analytics component.

Google Analytics uses cookies. The information about your use of our website generated by the Google Analytics cookie is normally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google might disclose these personal data collected via the technical procedure to third parties.

However, when you by activate IP anonymization on our website, Google shortens your IP address within the Member States of the European Union or in other countries that are parties to the European Marketing Area Treaty. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google uses this information to analyze your use of the website in order to compile a report about your website activities and provide us with other services associated with your website and Internet use. The IP address of your browser transmitted by Google Analytics is not linked to any other Google data.

This website also uses the UserID functions of Analytics in order to be able to track interaction data. This User ID is also anonymized and encrypted and is not linked to other data.

You may prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly, but you might then not be able to fully use all functions of our website.

You may furthermore prevent the disclosure of the data generated by the cookie which refer to the use of the website (incl. your IP address) to Google as well as the processing of these data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

This browser add-on notifies Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data or information about website visitors may be transmitted to Google Analytics.

Besides, a cookie left behind by Google Analytics may be erased at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

Additional information and the applicable privacy policy of Google may be downloaded from https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de and from https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/terms/de/ . Google Analytics is explained in more detail under this link: https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/.

Our website also uses Google Analytics performance reports by demographic factors and interests as well as reports about impressions in the Google Display Network. You may deactivate Google Analytics for display advertising and set the displays in the Google Display Network by accessing the display settings under this link: https://www.google.de/ads/preferences?ac_tld=de&continue=aHR0cHM6Ly9hZHNzZXR0aW5ncy5nb29nbGUuZGUvYW5vbnltb3Vz.

Google Tag Manager

This website uses Google Tag Manager. This service allows you to administer so-called website tags centrally via an interface. Google Tag Manager implements only tags. No cookies are used and no personal data are collected.

Google has a suitable privacy policy for such data collection by third-party providers: https://marketingplatform.google.com/intl/de/about/analytics/tag-manager/use-policy/

However Google Tag Manager does not access these data. If certain domains/websites or cookies were deactivated, it remains in place for all tracking tags provided that they are implemented using Google Tag Manager.

Facebook Tracking Pixel

With your consent we will use Facebook’s “tracking pixel”. With the help of this pixel the behavior of users can be tracked once they are linked by click to a Facebook or Instagram ad on our website. This allows us to record the effectiveness of the Facebook and Instagram ads for statistical and market research purposes and to take optimization measures if necessary. Users who clicked on a Facebook or Instagram ad on our website may be tracked for up to 180 days.

The data recorded in such manner are anonymous for us, i.e. we do not see the personal data of the individual users. These data are however stored and processed by Facebook, which we will bring to your attention as we become aware of it.

Facebook may link these data with the Facebook account and use them also for its own advertising purposes according to its own data use guidelines.

If you prefer to deactivate the cookie storage on behalf of Facebook, you may do so by adjusting your browser settings accordingly.

Modifications
This Privacy Policy may be amended from time to time in order to maintain compliance with the law and to reflect any changes to our data collection process. When we amend this Privacy Policy we will update the “Effective Date” at the top of this Privacy Policy.
