Data protection

1. Privacy policy

Thank you for visiting our website. In the following, we would like to inform you about the handling of your data in accordance with Art. 13 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Data controller

The controller responsible for the data collection and processing described below is the entity named in the Imprint.

Usage data

When you visit our websites, so-called usage data is temporarily stored on our web server as a log for statistical purposes in order to improve the quality of our websites. This data record consists of

• the page from which the file was requested
• the name of the file
• the date and time of the request
• the amount of data transferred
• the access status (file transferred, file not found),
• the description of the type of web browser used,
• the IP address of the requesting computer, which is shortened so that a personal reference can no longer be established.

The aforementioned log data is only stored in anonymized form.

2. Required cookies

We use cookies on our websites that are necessary for the use of our websites.

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your end device and can be read. A distinction is made between session cookies, which are deleted as soon as you close your browser, and permanent cookies, which are stored beyond the individual session.

We do not use these necessary cookies for analysis, tracking or advertising purposes.

Some of these cookies only contain information on certain settings and are not personally identifiable. They may also be necessary to enable user guidance, security and implementation of the site.

We use these cookies on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

You can set your browser to inform you about the placement of cookies. This makes the use of cookies transparent for you. You can also delete cookies at any time via the corresponding browser setting and prevent the setting of new cookies. Please note that our websites may then not be displayed and some functions may no longer be technically available.

3. Tracking tools

Consent banner

We use a consent management platform (consent or cookie banner) on our websites. The processing in connection with the use of the consent management platform and the logging of the settings you have made is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, in our legitimate interest to display our content according to your preferences and to be able to prove your consent(s). The settings you have made, the consent you have given and parts of your usage data are stored in a cookie. This means that it is retained for subsequent page requests and your consent can still be tracked. You can find further information on this under the heading "Required cookies".

The provider of the consent management platform works for us as a strictly instruction-bound service provider (processor). An order processing contract in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR has been agreed.

Google Analytics

We use the web analysis tool "Google Analytics" to design our websites in line with requirements. Google Analytics creates user profiles based on pseudonyms. For this purpose, permanent cookies are stored on your end device and read by us. In this way, we are able to recognize returning visitors and count them as such.

As part of the Google Analytics service, Google Ireland Limited supports us as a processor in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out by Google outside the EU or the EEA (in particular in the USA). With regard to Google, an adequate level of data protection is guaranteed on the basis of the adequacy decision (EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework). Google also undertakes to conclude standard contractual clauses with other sub-processors.

Data processing takes place on the basis of your consent, provided that you have given your consent via our banner. You can withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, please follow this link and make the appropriate settings via our banner.

Matomo

We use Matomo for web analysis, a service provided by InnoCraft Ltd, 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand, NZBN 6106769, ("Matomo"). The protection of your data is important to us, which is why we have also configured Matomo so that your IP address is only recorded in abbreviated form. We therefore process your personal usage data anonymously. It is not possible for us to draw any conclusions about your person. You can find further information on Matomo's terms of use and data protection regulations at https://matomo.org/privacy/

4. Third-party tracking technologies for advertising purposes

We use cross-device tracking technologies so that you can be shown targeted advertising on other websites based on your visit to our websites and we can recognize how effective our advertising measures were.

Data processing takes place on the basis of your consent, provided you have given your consent via our banner. Your consent is voluntary and can be revoked at any time.

How does tracking work?

When you visit our websites, it is possible that the third-party providers mentioned below may retrieve recognition features for your browser or your end device (e.g. a so-called browser fingerprint), evaluate your IP address, store or read recognition features on your end device (e.g. cookies) or gain access to individual tracking pixels.

The individual features can be used by third-party providers to recognize your device on other websites. We can commission the relevant third-party providers to place advertisements based on the pages you visit on our website.

What does cross-device tracking mean?

If you log in to the third-party provider with your own user data, the respective recognition features of different browsers and end devices can be linked together. For example, if the third-party provider has created a separate feature for the laptop, desktop PC or smartphone or tablet you are using, these individual features can be assigned to each other as soon as you use a service of the third-party provider with your login data. In this way, the third-party provider can also target our advertising campaigns across different end devices.

Which third-party providers do we use in this context?

Below we list the third-party providers with whom we work for advertising purposes. If the data is processed in this context outside the EU or the EEA (in particular in the USA), we provide information on the level of data protection in the following table.

5. Retargeting

Google

By using our websites, you consent to the following data processing:

We use Google remarketing technologies

We use cross-device remarketing technologies from Google so that you can be shown targeted advertising on other websites based on your visit to our website. The data processing is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

How does remarketing work?

When you visit our websites, Google may retrieve recognition features for your browser or device (e.g. create a so-called browser fingerprint), evaluate your IP address or store a recognition feature in the form of a small text file on your device (e.g. a so-called third-party cookie). It is also possible that Google may link your visit to our website with one or more of these recognition features and store them in order to show you our advertising on other pages on the Internet.

The recognition features described above are designed as pseudonyms and can be used by Google to recognize your device on other websites. For example, if you visit a page that participates in Google's display advertising network (i.e. displays advertising on behalf of Google), Google can recognize your device and browser based on the above-mentioned features.

We can also add so-called "remarketing tags" to our websites. This means that we can include keywords in our web pages that contain statements about the content of the displayed page (such as product or service categories). The keywords we use do not contain any personal or sensitive information. Google receives and stores these keywords for the above-mentioned recognition features. So if you visit a page that we have tagged with a specific product category, Google stores this keyword and assigns it to your recognition features.

This allows us to commission Google to place advertisements on other websites based on the pages we have visited. If you visit another website that participates in Google's display advertising network, Google can use the recognition features and the keywords stored for these recognition features to recognize whether and, if so, which of our advertisements should be displayed to you.

You can find more information on how Google remarketing technologies work at https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/.

What does cross-device remarketing mean?

If you log in to Google services with your own login data or use one or more of your own Google accounts, Google can link the recognition features of different browsers and end devices with each other. This means that if Google has created a unique identifier for the laptop, desktop PC, smartphone or tablet you are using, these identifiers can be assigned to each other as soon as you use or have used a Google service with your login data. In this way, Google can also target our advertising campaigns across devices. However, Google will only do this if you have given Google your consent to this data processing in the past.

You have the option of making settings for advertising

You can object to this form of advertising at any time. To do so, please visit this page https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922 and deactivate personalized advertising. Please note that these settings may not affect all end devices and browsers. You can also find more information at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922.

6 Explanation of the security measures

Data security

We take technical and organizational measures to protect your data from unauthorized access as comprehensively as possible. We use an encryption process on our website.
