Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our online offer by the users, to compile reports on the activities within this online offer and to further with the use of this online offer and the services connected to the Internet.

[Note: Please remove the following pass if you do not use Google Re/marketing services.]

7. Google Re/Marketing Services

We use the marketing and remarketing services (short “Google Marketing Services”) of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, (“Google”).

Google Marketing services allow us to more accurately display ads for and on our site to show users only ads that potentially match their interests. For example, if users are shown ads for products for which they are interested in other websites, this is called “remarketing”. For these purposes, when we call up our and other Web sites where Google Marketing services are active, Google directly executes a code from Google and the website is called (RE) marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also called “Web beacons” ) into the website. With the help of the device the user is stored an individual cookie, i.e. a small file (instead of cookies can also be used comparable technologies). The cookies can be set from different domains, including Google.com, Doubleclick.net, invitemedia.com, admeld.com, googlesyndication.com or googleadservices.com. This file is used to indicate which Web pages the user is interested in, for which content he or she has clicked, as well as technical information about the browser and operating system, referring Web pages, visiting time and other information on Use of the online offer. The IP address of the users is also recorded, whereby we inform in the context of Google-Analytics that the IP address is reduced within the Member States of the European Union or in other contracting States of the Agreement on the European Economic Area and Transferred to a Google server in the United States only in exceptional cases and is shortened there. The IP address is not merged with the user’s data within other Google offerings. The above information may also be linked to such information from other sources. When the user then visits other Web pages, he or she can view the ads that are matched to his or her interests.

The user’s data is processed under the Google Marketing services pseudonym. i.e. Google does not store and process the name or e-mail address of the users, but processes the relevant data cookie-related within pseudonymous user profiles. i.e. from Google’s point of view, the ads are not managed and displayed for a specifically identified person, but for the cookie holder, regardless of who this cookie holder is. This does not apply if a user has explicitly allowed Google to process the data without this pseudonymization. The information collected by “DoubleClick” about the users is sent to Google and stored in the USA on Google’s servers.

Among the Google marketing services we have used include the online advertising program “Google AdWords”. In the case of Google AdWords, each AdWords customer receives a different “conversion cookie”. As a result, cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of AdWords customers. The information obtained using the cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. AdWords customers will see the total number of users who clicked on your ad and were redirected to a conversion tracking tag page. However, you do not receive any information that allows users to identify themselves personally.

We embed third party ads based on the Google Marketing Services “DoubleClick”. DoubleClick uses cookies that enable Google and its partner sites to display ads based on visits from users on this site or other websites on the internet.

We also include third party ads based on Google Marketing services AdSense. AdSense uses cookies that enable Google and its partner sites to display ads based on visits from users on this site or other websites on the internet.

Another Google Marketing service we use is the Google Tag Manager, which allows you to integrate additional Google Analytics and marketing services into our website (e.g. “AdWords”, “DoubleClick” or “Google Analytics”).

For more information on Google’s use of data for marketing purposes, please see the page: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads, the Google Privacy statement is available at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy available.

If you’d like to disagree with Google Marketing services coverage, you can use the settings and opt-out options provided by Google: http://www.google.com/ads/preferences.

8. Facebook Social Plugins

Our online offer uses social plugins (“plugins”) of the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”). The plugins are recognizable on one of the Facebook logos (white “f” on blue tile, the terms “like”, “like” or a “thumbs up” sign) or are marked with the addition “Facebook social plugin”. The list and the appearance of the Facebook social plugins can be viewed here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

When a user calls a function of this online offer that contains such a plugin, his device establishes a direct connection with the servers of Facebook. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly by Facebook to the user’s device and is included in the online offer. Users can create user profiles from the processed data. We therefore have no influence on the amount of data that Facebook collects with the help of this plugin and therefore informs users according to our knowledge level.

By incorporating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that a user has accessed the corresponding page of the online offer. If the user is logged on to Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to his Facebook account. When users interact with the plugins, for example press the Like button or leave a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted from their device directly to Facebook and stored there. If a user is not a member of Facebook, there is still the possibility that Facebook will know and store its IP address. According to Facebook, only an anonymized IP address is stored in Germany.

The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as the relevant rights and settings for the protection of the privacy of the users can be read in the Privacy policy of Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

If a user is Facebook and does not want Facebook to collect data about him via this online offer and link it with his member data stored on Facebook, he must log out before using our online offer on Facebook and his delete Cookies. Other settings and contradictions regarding the use of data for advertising purposes are possible within the Facebook profile settings: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads or via the US-American site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU side http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. The settings are platform independent, i.e. they are applied to all devices, such as desktop computers or mobile devices.

9. Facebook Remarketing

Within our online offer, so-called “Facebook pixel” of the social network Facebook, which is from Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, or if you are located in the EU, Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland is operated (“Facebook”). With the help of the Facebook pixel it is possible for Facebook to determine the visitors of our offer as a target group for the display of ads, so-called “Facebook-ads”. Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel to display the Facebook ads that we have switched to only those Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our internet offer. That is, with the help of the Facebook pixel we want to make sure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of the users and do not act harassing. With the help of the Facebook pixel we can also understand the effectiveness of the Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes, in which we see whether users have been forwarded to our website after clicking on a Facebook advertisement.

The Facebook pixel is integrated directly through Facebook when you call our websites and can store a so-called cookie on your device, i.e. a small file. If you then log in to Facebook or visit Facebook in the logged in state, the visit to our offer will be noted in your profile. The data collected about you are anonymous for us, so do not give us any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook, so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible. The data is processed by Facebook as part of the Facebook data usage policy. As a result, you can learn more about how the remarketing pixel works and how Facebook ads are displayed, in the Facebook data usage policy: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php.

You can disagree with the Facebook pixel capture and use of your data to display Facebook ads. To do this, you can access the page set up by Facebook and follow the instructions on the settings for use-based advertising: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads or the opposition to the US side http:// www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU-side http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ . The settings are platform independent, i.e. they are applied to all devices, such as desktop computers or mobile devices.

We use the plugin jetpack (here the SubFunction “WordPress stats”), which integrates a tool for statistical evaluation of visitor accesses and by Autolanguic, Inc. 132 Hawthorne Street San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. Jetpack uses so-called “cookies”, text files which are stored on your computer and which allow an analysis of the use of the website by you.

This allows users to create user profiles from the processed data, which are only used for analysis and not for advertising purposes.

They are recognizable in terms such as “Twitter” or “episode” or associated with a stylized blue bird. With the help of the buttons it is possible to share a post or website of this online offer on Twitter or to follow the provider on Twitter.

When a user calls up a website of this online offer that contains such a button, his browser establishes a direct connection with the servers of Twitter. The content of the Twitter buttons is transmitted by Twitter directly to the user’s browser.

12. Pinterest buttons

We use the “Pin it” buttons of the Pinterest service, http://pinterest.com. With the help of the buttons it is possible for users to share our articles or websites on their “Pinterest-boards”.
When a user calls a Web page that contains a “pin it” button, his or her browser establishes a direct connection to Pinterest’s servers. The content of the “pin it” button is transmitted by Pinterest directly to the user’s browser. We therefore have no influence on the amount of data that Pinterest collects with the help of the “pin it” button and informs users according to our level of knowledge.

13. Google +

We use the buttons of the social network Google + (e.g. “+ 1” button), which is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).

14. Newsletter

With the following instructions we will clarify the contents of our newsletter as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedures as well as your right to object. By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to the reception and the procedures described.

Content of the newsletter: We send out newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications with promotional information (hereinafter “newsletter”) only with the consent of the recipient or a legal permission. If the contents are specifically described in the context of an application for the newsletter, they are decisive for the consent of the users. In addition, our newsletters contain the following information: information about our products, offers, promotions and our company.

Double opt-In and logging: the registration for our newsletter is done in a so-called double-opt-in procedure. i.e. After you have registered, you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with foreign e-mail addresses. Registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the logon and confirmation date as well as the IP address. The changes to the data stored by the shipping service provider are also logged.

Shipping Service: The newsletter is sent by “
Newsletter2Go GmbH, Nürnberger Straße 8, 10787 Berlin “(hereinafter referred to as” shipping service provider “). You can view the data protection regulations of the shipping service provider here: https://www.newsletter2go.de/datenschutz/.

The e-mail addresses of our newsletter recipients, as well as their other data described in the context of these notices, are stored on the servers of the shipping service provider. The shipping service provider uses this information to send and evaluate the newsletters on our behalf. Furthermore, the shipping service provider can use this data to optimize or improve its own services according to its own information, e.g. for the technical optimization of the dispatch and the presentation of the newsletters or for economic purposes to determine From which countries the recipients come from. However, the shipping service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write it or pass it on to third parties.

Registration information: To sign up for the newsletter, it is sufficient to provide your e-mail address.

Statistical survey and analysis-the newsletters contain a so-called “Web beacon”, i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the shipping service provider’s server when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval, are collected first. This information is used for technical improvement of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on the Abruforte (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times. The statistical surveys also include the determination of whether the newsletters will be opened, when they will be opened and which links will be clicked. This information can be assigned to the individual Newsletter receiver for technical reasons. However, it is neither our ambition nor that of the shipping service provider to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different contents according to the interests of our users.

Cancellation-You can cancel the reception of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. At the same time, your consent will be extinguished by the shipping service provider and the statistical analyses. A separate cancellation of the dispatch by the shipping service provider or the statistical evaluation is unfortunately not possible. A link to cancel the newsletter can be found at the end of each newsletter.

15. Integration of third party services and content

It is possible that content or services of third parties, such as city maps or fonts from other websites, can be included within our online offer. The inclusion of third-party content always requires third-party providers to perceive the IP address of the users, since they would not be able to send the content to the user’s browser without the IP address. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. Third-party content providers may also set their own cookies and process the user’s data for their own purposes. Users can create user profiles from the processed data. We will use this content sparingly and data-avoidable and choose reliable third-party providers in terms of data security.

The following presentation provides an overview of third-party providers as well as their contents, along with links to their data protection declarations, which contain further information on the processing of data and, in some cases already mentioned here, opposition possibilities (so-called opt-out):
