Analysis Advertising Tracking Affiliate
Use of Google Analytics
We use the web analysis service Google Analytics of Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; “Google”) on our website.
Data processing serves the purpose of analyzing this website and its visitors and for marketing and advertising purposes. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website activity and internet usage. The following information, among others, may be collected: IP address, date and time of page access, click path, information about the browser you use and the device you use (device), pages visited, referrer URL (website from which you accessed our website), location data, purchase activities. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
Google Analytics uses technologies such as cookies, web storage in the browser, and tracking pixels, which allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. There is no adequacy decision from the EU Commission for the USA. Data transmission is based, among other things, on standard contractual clauses as appropriate safeguards for the protection of personal data, which can be viewed at https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms/. Both Google and US authorities have access
to your data. Your data may be linked by Google with other data, such as your search history, your personal accounts, your usage data from other devices, and any other data Google may have about you.
IP anonymization is activated on this website. This means that your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
The processing of your personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR from our overriding legitimate interest in the demand-oriented and targeted design of the website. You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for reasons arising from your particular situation.
You can prevent the collection of data generated by Google Analytics and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) 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=en
To prevent data collection and storage by Google Analytics across devices, you can set an opt-out cookie. Opt-out cookies prevent the future collection of your data when visiting this website. You must carry out the opt-out on all systems and devices used for it to be comprehensive. If you delete the opt-out cookie, requests will be sent to Google again.

Use of Facebook Pixel
We use the remarketing function "Custom Audiences" of Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland “Facebook”) on our website.
Meta Platforms Ireland and we are jointly responsible for the collection of your data and its transmission to Facebook when using the service. This is based on an agreement between us and Meta Platforms Ireland on the joint processing of personal data, which sets out the respective responsibilities. The agreement is available at https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum. Accordingly, we are particularly responsible for fulfilling the information obligations according to Articles 13 and 14 GDPR, for complying with the security requirements of Article 32 GDPR concerning the correct technical implementation and configuration of the service, and for complying with the obligations under Articles 33 and 34 GDPR, insofar as a personal data breach affects our obligations under the joint processing agreement. Meta Platforms Ireland is responsible for enabling the data subjects' rights under Articles 15-20 GDPR, complying with the security requirements of Article 32 GDPR concerning the security of the service, and complying with the obligations under Articles 33 and 34 GDPR, insofar as a personal data breach affects Meta Platforms Ireland's obligations under the joint processing agreement.
The application serves the purpose of targeting visitors to the website with interest-based advertising on the social network Facebook. For this purpose, the Facebook remarketing tag has been implemented on the website. This tag establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers when visiting the website. This informs the Facebook server which of our pages you have visited. Facebook assigns this information to your personal Facebook user account. When you visit the social network Facebook, personalized, interest-based Facebook ads are displayed to you.
Your data may be transferred to the USA. There is no adequacy decision from the EU Commission for the USA.

Use of Google Ads Conversion Tracking
We use the online advertising program "Google Ads" and conversion tracking (evaluation of visit actions) as part of this program on our website. Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland).
When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is placed on your computer. These cookies have a limited validity, do not contain any personal data, and are therefore not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Thus, there is no possibility of cookies being tracked across the websites of Ads customers.
The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics. This allows us to know the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information that personally identifies users.
Your data may be transferred to servers of Google LLC in the USA. There is no adequacy decision from the EU Commission for the USA. Data transmission is based, among other things, on standard contractual clauses as appropriate safeguards for the protection of personal data, which can be viewed at https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://business.safety.google/adscontrollerterms/.

You can deactivate personalized advertising for you in the settings for advertising on Google. A guide on how to do this can be found at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en
Alternatively, you can prevent the use of cookies by third parties by visiting the deactivation page of the Network Advertising Initiative (Network Advertising Initiative) at https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and implementing the additional information provided there regarding the opt-out.

The cookies are used to record visits to the website as well as anonymized data about the use of the website. No personal data of the visitors of the website is stored. If you visit another website in the Google Display Network afterward, you will see advertisements that are highly likely to take into account previously accessed product and information areas.
Your data may be transferred to servers of Google LLC in the USA. There is no adequacy decision from the EU Commission for the USA. Data transmission is based, among other things, on standard contractual clauses as appropriate safeguards for the protection of personal data, which can be viewed at https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks.

Use of Google Ads Conversion Tracking
We use the online advertising program "Google Ads" and conversion tracking (evaluation of visit actions) as part of this program on our website. Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland).
When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is placed on your computer. These cookies have a limited validity, do not contain any personal data, and are therefore not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Thus, there is no possibility of cookies being tracked across the websites of Ads customers.
The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics. This allows us to know the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information that personally identifies users.
Your data may be transferred to servers of Google LLC in the USA. There is no adequacy decision from the EU Commission for the USA.
