One of the functions of cookies is to enable us to make our service more pleasant for you to use. Thus, we use “session cookies” to indicate that you have visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted when you leave the page.
Moreover, we also use temporary cookies which are stored for a specifically defined period on your terminal to optimise your customer experience.

5. Analysis tools


a) Tracking tools
The tracking measures specified and used by us are implemented on the basis of Art. 5 Section 1 P. 1 lit. f GDPR. We use these tracking measures to ensure that our website is adapted to individual needs and for its ongoing optimisation. One use of our tracking measures is to record statistical information about our website use and to evaluate and optimise our services for you. These interests are considered to be legitimate according to the previous provision.
The respective data processing purposes and data categories are to be taken from the relevant tracking tools.

b) Google Analytics
To ensure that our webpages are adapted to individual needs and for their ongoing optimisation, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (https://www.google.de/intl/de/about/) (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter “Google“). In conjunction with this, anonymised user profiles are issued and cookies are used (see no. 4). The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of the website such as
  • browser type/version,
  • operating system used,
  • referrer URL (the previously visited webpage),
  • hosting name of the requesting computer (IP address),
  • time of the server request
is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to evaluate use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to fulfil other services associated with website use and internet use for the purposes of market research and to adapt these internet pages better to your needs. This information is also transmitted to third parties to the extent that this is legally required or in so far as third parties process the data on behalf of Google. Under no circumstances is your IP address linked with other data from Google. The IP addresses are anonymised so that no attribution is possible (IP masking).
You can prevent installation of cookies by using a relevant setting of the browser software; however it should be noted that in this event, not all functions of this website can be fully utilised.
You can also prevent the recording of data generated by the cookie and associated with 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=de).

An opt-out cookie is used which prevents future collection of your data when you visit this website. The opt-out cookie only applies to this browser and to our website and is stored on your terminal. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you need to set the opt-out cookie again.

c) Google Adwords Conversion Tracking
In order to record statistical information about use of our website and for the purposes of evaluating website optimisation for you, we also use Google Conversion Tracking. A cookie is set by Google Adwords (see no. 4) on your computer, if you are directed to our website by a Google advertisement.
These cookies cease to be valid after 30 days and are not intended to identify individuals personally. If a user visits certain webpages of the Adword customer, and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognise that the user has clicked on the advertisement and was directed to this webpage.
Each Adwords customer has a different cookie. Thus cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of Adwords customers. The information obtained via the conversion cookies serves to compile conversion statistics for Adwords customers who have chosen conversion tracking. The Adwords customers learn the total number of users who have clicked on their advertisement and were directed to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users may be personally identified. Google’s privacy notice on conversion tracking can be found here (https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html).

5. Social Media Plug-ins

We use social media plug-ins from the social networks Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube on our website on the basis of Art. 6 Section 1 P. 1 lit. f GDPR to make our companies better known. The advertising purpose of this is considered a legitimate interest according to GDPR. Responsibility for operation in compliance with data protection is guaranteed by the respective service providers. These plug-ins are integrated by us by using the “two click method” in order to provide optimum protection for visitors to our website.

a) Facebook
Social media Plug-ins from Facebook are used on our website to provide a more personal experience for our users. We use the “LIKE” or “SHARE” buttons. This is a Facebook service.
If you access a page of our website which contains such a plug-in, your browser makes a direct connection with the Facebook servers. The content of the plug-in is transmitted directly by Facebook to your browser and integrated into the website by it.
By integrating the plug-in, Facebook obtains the information that your browser has accessed the relevant page of our website even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not logged into Facebook. This information, (including your IP address) is transmitted directly by your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.
If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can allocate the visit to our website directly to your Facebook account. When you interact with the Plug-ins, for example, click the “LIKE” or “SHARE” button, the relevant information will also be transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also posted on Facebook and shown to your Facebook friends.
Facebook may use this information for the purposes of advertising, market research and personalised design of the Facebook pages. Profiles of use, interests and relationships are thus created, for example, to evaluate your use of our website with regard to advertisements inserted on Facebook for you, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to fulfil other services associated with Facebook use.
If you do not wish Facebook to allocate data collected via our website to your Facebook account, you need to log out of Facebook before visiting our website.
The purpose and scope of data collection and further processing and use of data by Facebook and your rights and configuration options associated with this to protect your privacy can be found in Facebook’s privacy statement (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/).

b) YouTube
This internet page contains at least one plug-in from YouTube, part of Google Inc., with its head office in San Bruno/California, USA. When you visit pages of our website with a YouTube plug-in, a connection is established with the YouTube servers. Thus, the YouTube server is notified of the specific page of our internet site you have visited. If you are logged in to your YouTube account, this will enable YouTube to allocate your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile. You can deactivate this allocation option by logging out of your account in advance. Further information regarding collection and use of your data by YouTube can be found in the information on data protection at www.youtube.com.
