These interests are to be regarded as legitimate within the meaning of the aforementioned regulation.

The respective data processing purposes and data categories can be found in the corresponding tracking tools.
 

a) Google Analytics 1

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (https://www.google.de/intl/en/about/) (1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043), for the purpose of designing and continuously optimizing our pages. USA; hereinafter referred to as “Google”). In this context, pseudonymised usage profiles are created and cookies (see section 5) are used. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website such as
 

• Browser type / version,

• Operating system used,

• Referrer URL (the page previously visited),

• Host name of the accessing computer (IP address),

• Time of the server request,
   

are transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage for the purposes of market research and the needs-based design of this website. This information may also be transferred to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf. Under no circumstances will your IP address be merged with other Google data. The IP addresses are anonymized so that an assignment is not possible (IP masking).
 

You can prevent the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case not all functions of our website can be used to their full extent.
 

You can also prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing a browser add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).

An opt-out cookie is set which prevents the future collection of your data when you visit our website. The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you must set the opt-out cookie again.

b) Google Adwords Conversion Tracking

In order to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing our website for you, we also use Google Conversion Tracking. Google Adwords sets a cookie (see section 5) on your computer if you have reached our website via a Google ad.

​

These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of the Adwords customer's website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.

​

Every Adwords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of Adwords customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Adwords customers who have opted for conversion tracking.

 

Adwords customers find out the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, you will not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.

​

​

8. Social media plugins

​

We use on our website on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR social plugins from social networks (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Google+) to make our company better known. The underlying advertising purpose is to be regarded as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR. Responsibility for data protection-compliant operation must be guaranteed by their respective providers. We integrate these plugins using the so-called two-click method to best protect visitors to our website.

​

a) Facebook

Social media plugins from Facebook are used on our website to make their use more personal. For this we use the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button. It is an offer from Facebook.
 

When you visit a page on our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted from Facebook directly to your browser, which integrates it into the website.

​

By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are currently not logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is sent from your browser directly to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.

​

If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly assign your visit to our website to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by pressing the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on Facebook for everyone to see.

​

Facebook can use this information for the purposes of advertising, market research and the needs-based design of the Facebook pages. For this purpose, Facebook creates usage, interest and relationship profiles, e.g. For example, to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide other services related to the use of Facebook.

​

If you do not want Facebook to assign the data collected via our website to your Facebook account, you must log out of Facebook before visiting my website.

​

The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy can be found in the data protection information, in particular the data policy of Facebook, which you can see under the following link: (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy)

​

b) Twitter

Plugins from the short message network of Twitter Inc. (Twitter) are integrated on our website. You can recognize the Twitter plugins (tweet button) by the Twitter logo on our website. An overview of tweet buttons can be found under this link on Twitter: (https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-for-websites/tweet-button/overview)

​

If you call up a page of our website that contains such a plugin, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Twitter server. Twitter thus receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you click the Twitter “tweet button” while you are logged into your Twitter account, you can link the content of our pages to your Twitter profile. This enables Twitter to associate your visit to our website with your user account.

 

We would like to point out that, as the provider of the website, we have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Twitter.

​

If you do not want Twitter to be able to associate your visit to our website, please log out of your Twitter user account.

Further information can be found in Twitter's data protection declaration, which you can view here: (https://twitter.com/en/privacy)

c) Google "+1" button

Our website uses the "+1" button of the social network Google, which is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA. The button is marked with a "+1".

​

The "+1" button is an abbreviation for "that's pretty cool" or "look at this". The button is not used to record your visits to the web.

If a website of our website contains the "+1" button, your internet browser will load and display this button from the Google server. The website you visit on our website is automatically communicated to the Google server. When a +1 button is displayed, Google does not log your browser history permanently, but only for a period of up to two weeks.

​

Google keeps this data about your visit for this period for system maintenance and troubleshooting purposes. However, this data is not structured according to individual profiles, user names or URLs. This information is also not accessible to website publishers or advertisers. The use of this information is only for maintenance and troubleshooting in internal systems at Google. Your visit to a page with a +1 button is not evaluated in any other way by Google.

​

There is no further evaluation of your visit to a website of our website with a "+1" button.

The assignment of +1 itself is a public process, i.e. Anyone who does a Google search or views content on the web that you +1 can potentially see that you +1 the content in question. Therefore, only +1 if you are absolutely sure that you want to share this recommendation with the whole world.

​

Clicking this +1 button serves as a recommendation for other users in Google's search results. You can publicly report that you like our website, that our website is approved or that you can recommend our website. If you have registered for Google+ and are logged in, the +1 button turns blue when you click on it. In addition, the +1 is added to the +1 tab in your Google profile. On this tab you can manage your +1 and decide whether you want to make the +1 tab public.

​

In order to save your +1 recommendation and be able to make it publicly available, Google uses your profile to collect information about the URL you recommend, your IP address and other browser-related information. If you withdraw your +1, this information will be deleted. All +1 recommendations from you are listed on the +1 tab in your profile.
