4. data coll­ec­tion on our website

Cookies

The inter­net pages partly use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your compu­ter and do not contain viru­ses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effec­tive and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your compu­ter and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are auto­ma­ti­cally dele­ted after the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your termi­nal device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to reco­gnize your brow­ser on your next visit.

You can set your brow­ser so that you are infor­med about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in indi­vi­dual cases, exclude the accep­tance of cookies for certain cases or in gene­ral and acti­vate the auto­ma­tic dele­tion of cookies when closing the brow­ser. When cookies are disab­led, the func­tion­a­lity of this website may be limited.

Cookies that are requi­red to carry out the elec­tro­nic commu­ni­ca­tion process or to provide certain func­tions that you have reques­ted (e.g. shop­ping cart func­tion) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO stored. The website opera­tor has a legi­ti­mate inte­rest in storing cookies for the tech­ni­cally error-free and opti­mi­zed provi­sion of its services. Inso­far as other cookies (e.g. cookies to analyze your surfing beha­vior) are stored, these are trea­ted sepa­ra­tely in this privacy policy.

Server log files

The provi­der of the pages auto­ma­ti­cally coll­ects and stores infor­ma­tion in so-called server log files, which your brow­ser auto­ma­ti­cally trans­mits to us. These are:

• Brow­ser type and version
• Opera­ting system used
• Refer­rer URL
• Host name of the acces­sing computer
• Time of the server request
• IP address
• This data is not merged with other data sources.

The basis for the data proces­sing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, which permits the proces­sing of data for the perfor­mance of a contract or pre-contrac­tual measures.

Cont­act form

If you send us inqui­ries via the cont­act form, the infor­ma­tion you provide in the inquiry form, inclu­ding the cont­act data you enter there, will be stored by us for the purpose of proces­sing the inquiry and in case of follow-up ques­ti­ons. We do not share this data without your consent.

The proces­sing of the data ente­red in the cont­act form is ther­e­fore based exclu­si­vely on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time. For this purpose, an infor­mal message by e-mail to us is suffi­ci­ent. The lega­lity of the data proces­sing opera­ti­ons carried out until the revo­ca­tion remains unaf­fec­ted by the revocation.

The data you enter in the cont­act form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have comple­ted proces­sing your request). Manda­tory legal provi­si­ons – in parti­cu­lar reten­tion peri­ods – remain unaffected.

IP anony­miza­tion

We have acti­va­ted the IP anony­miza­tion func­tion on this website. As a result, your IP address will be shor­tened by Google within member states of the Euro­pean Union or in other states party to the Agree­ment on the Euro­pean Econo­mic Area before being trans­mit­ted to the USA. Only in excep­tio­nal cases is the full IP address trans­mit­ted to a Google server in the USA and shor­tened there. On behalf of the opera­tor of this website, Google will use this infor­ma­tion for the purpose of evalua­ting your use of the website, compi­ling reports on website acti­vity and provi­ding other services rela­ting to website acti­vity and inter­net usage to the website opera­tor. The IP address trans­mit­ted by your brow­ser as part of Google Analy­tics is not merged with other data from Google.

Order data processing

We have concluded an order data proces­sing contract with Google and fully imple­ment the strict requi­re­ments of the German data protec­tion autho­ri­ties when using Google Analytics.

Demo­gra­phic charac­te­ristics in Google Analytics

This website uses the “demo­gra­phic charac­te­ristics” func­tion of Google Analy­tics. This allows reports to be gene­ra­ted that contain state­ments about the age, gender and inte­rests of site visi­tors. This data comes from inte­rest-based adver­ti­sing from Google as well as visi­tor data from third-party provi­ders. This data cannot be assi­gned to a speci­fic person. You can deac­ti­vate this func­tion at any time via the ad settings in your Google account or gene­rally prohi­bit the coll­ec­tion of your data by Google Analy­tics as shown in the item “Objec­tion to data collection”.

Google AdWords and Google Conver­sion Tracking

This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online adver­ti­sing program of Google Inc, 1600 Amphi­theatre Park­way, Moun­tain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).

Within the scope of Google AdWords, we use the so-called conver­sion track­ing. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set for conver­sion track­ing. Cookies are small text files that the Inter­net brow­ser stores on the user’s compu­ter. These cookies lose their vali­dity after 30 days and are not used to perso­nally iden­tify users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expi­red, Google and we can reco­gnize that the user clicked on the ad and was redi­rec­ted to this page.

Each Google AdWords custo­mer recei­ves a diffe­rent cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked through AdWords custo­mers’ websites. The infor­ma­tion coll­ec­ted using the conver­sion cookie is used to create conver­sion statis­tics for AdWords custo­mers who have opted for conver­sion track­ing. Clients learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redi­rec­ted to a page tagged with a conver­sion track­ing tag. Howe­ver, they do not receive any infor­ma­tion with which users can be perso­nally iden­ti­fied. If you do not wish to parti­ci­pate in the track­ing, you can object to this use by easily deac­ti­vat­ing the Google conver­sion track­ing cookie via your inter­net brow­ser under user settings. They will then not be included in the conver­sion track­ing statistics.

The storage of “conver­sion cookies” is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website opera­tor has a legi­ti­mate inte­rest in analy­zing user beha­vior in order to opti­mize both its web offe­ring and its advertising.

For more infor­ma­tion on Google AdWords and Google Conver­sion Track­ing, please see Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

You can set your brow­ser so that you are infor­med about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in indi­vi­dual cases, exclude the accep­tance of cookies for certain cases or in gene­ral and acti­vate the auto­ma­tic dele­tion of cookies when closing the brow­ser. When cookies are disab­led, the func­tion­a­lity of this website may be limited.

Here, among other things, it can be analy­zed how many reci­pi­ents have opened the news­let­ter message and how often which link in the news­let­ter was clicked. With the help of so-called conver­sion track­ing, it can also be analy­zed whether a prede­fi­ned action (e.g. purchase of a product on our website) has taken place after clicking on the link in the news­let­ter. For more infor­ma­tion on data analy­sis through Clever­Reach news­let­ters, please visit: https://www.cleverreach.com/de/funktionen/reporting-und-tracking/.

If you do not want any analy­sis by Clever­Reach, you must unsub­scribe from the news­let­ter. For this purpose, we provide a corre­spon­ding link in every news­let­ter message. Further­more, you can also unsub­scribe from the news­let­ter directly on the website.

The data you provide for the purpose of recei­ving the news­let­ter will be stored by us until you unsub­scribe from the news­let­ter and will be dele­ted from our servers as well as from the servers of Clever­Reach after you unsub­scribe from the news­let­ter. Data stored by us for other purpo­ses (e.g. e-mail addres­ses for the member area) remain unaf­fec­ted by this.
