Based on our legitimate interests (interest in analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offering within the meaning of DSGVO Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f.) we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc.. Google uses cookies which means that the user information regarding the usage of the online offer will be transmitted and stored on a server in the US.

For further details please click here: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
On our account Google will use this information to evaluate the usage of our online services by users, to compile reports about activities within our online services and to perform further services associated with usage of our online services and internet use. Thereby processed data can be used to create user profiles by using pseudonyms.

We use Google Analytics to display advertisements within the ad services of Google and their partners only to users, which have shown interest in our online services or show certain characteristics (for instance interest in certain topics or products, which are determined by the visited website). By using Remarketing Audiences we like to ensure that our ads correspond with the users potential interest and are not annoying.
We only use Google Analytics with activated IP anonymisation. This means, that the user‘s IP address will be shortened within the Member States of the European Union or in different Contracting States, which are parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
Only in exceptional cases the full IP address will be transmitted and shortened on a Google server in the US.
The user’s transmitted IP address will not be merged with other data from Google. The user can prevent the storage of the cookie through deactivating the corresponding option in their browser system settings. In addition to that, the user has the possibility to prevent data capture through the cookie, so that no data will be processed by Google, by downloading and installing this Browser-Plugin available following this link:https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Google-Remarketing-Services

Based on our legitimate interest (interest of analysis, economic and efficient operations for our online services in accordance to DSGVO Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f.) we use marketing and remarketing services („Google-Marketing-Services“) provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, („Google“).
Google is certified in accordance with the privacy-shield agreement which guarantees to abide the european data protection law. (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
The usage of Google-Marketing-Services allows us to show more targeted ads for and on our website, to only show ads to a user, who posed a potential interest. If a user is shown a product, for which he has shown interest on another website, it is called „Remarketing“.
For those purposes, when visiting our and other websites, on which Google-Marketing-Services are activated, a code will be immediately performed by Google and so called (re)marketing-tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as „web beacons“) are incorporated in the website.With help of those tags and code, an individual cookie – a small file will be secured on the user’s device (instead of cookies a similar technology can be used). Cookies can be set by different domains, for example: google.com, doubleclick.net, invitemedia.com, admeld.com, googlesyndication.com or googleadservices.com. In those files the user data is stored (which website was requested, which content the user is interested in and which offers he clicked on, technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, time of access, as well as further information about usage of our online services). The user’s IP address will also be collected, but will be shortened only within the Member States of the European Union or in different Contracting States, which are parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, according to Google Analytics. Only in exceptional cases the full IP address will be transmitted and shortened on a Google server in the US. The user’s transmitted IP address will not be merged with other data from other Google services. The above mentioned information can be connected with information from other sources by Google. When subsequently visiting another website, the user can be shown ads according to his interests.
The user data is processed pseudonymously by Google-Marketing-Services. This means that Google does not save the user‘s name or mail address, it only processes the relevant cookie data per pseudonymous user profiles. Therefore for Google ads are not shown to a specific identified person but to a cookie-holder, regardless of who the cookie holder is. This will not apply if a user has given Google his consent to process his data without pseudomyzation. The user data collected by Google-Marketing-Services will be transmitted to and secured by Google on their servers in the US. One of the Google-Marketing-Services we use is the online-ad programme „Google AdWords“. In case of Google AdWords every AdWords-customer gets a different „Conversion-Cookie“. Therefore cookies can’t be retraced from the websites of AdWords-customers. The information collected by cookies is used to create Concersion-statistics for AdWords-customers, who chose Conversion tracking. AdWords-customers learn the total number of users, who clicked on their ad and where forwarded to website containing a Conversion-Tracking-Tag. They will not get information, by which a user can be identified.
Based on Google-Marketing-Services‘ „DoubleClick“ third party advertisements can be incorporated. DoubleClick uses cookies, which enable Google and their partner-websites to display advertisements based on visitation on this and other websites on the internet.
We can display third party advertisements based on Google-Marketing-Services‘ „AdSense“. AdSense uses cookies , which enable Google and their partner-websites to display advertisements based on visits on this and other websites on the internet.
Furthermore we can use „Google Optimizer“. Google Optimizer allows us to comprehend „A/B-Testings“, how changes effect the website (for instance changes concerning input-fields, designs, etc.) In those test purposes cookies are filed on a user’s device. But only pseudonymous data of the user will be processed.
We also can use „Google Tag Manager“ to incorporate and manage Google-Analysis and Marketing Services on our website.
You can find further information on data usage and marketing purposes by Google on the overview page: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads, Googles privacy policy can be read here:https://www.google.com/policies/privacy
