This information is used by Google, as commissioned by us, to analyse the User’s use of our Online Offer, to compile reports on the activities performed within this Online Offer, and to render other services related to the use of this Online Offer and Internet use. The data processed can be used to create pseudonymised User usage profiles.

We use Google Analytics to only display advertisements, within the advertisement service network of Google and its partners, to those Users who demonstrated an interest in our Online Offer and who possess certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products as determined from the browsing history). These advertisements are transferred by us to Google (so-called “remarketing audiences”, or “Google Analytics audiences”). Remarketing audiences helps additionally ensure that our advertisements correspond to the potential interests of Users and do not have a harassing effect.
9.5.	We only use Google Analytics with active IP anonymisation. The User IP address is truncated by Google within EU member states or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address is only transmitted to a Google server in the US and truncated there in exceptional cases.
9.6	The IP address transmitted by the User’s browser is not collated with other Google data. Users can make settings in their browser software to prevent the storage of cookies. Users can additionally prevent Google’s gathering of data related to their use of the Online Offer by the cookie and Google’s processing thereof by downloading and installing the browser plugin available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
9.7.	Further information on the data usage by Google and configuration and rejection options can be found on the websites of Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy/partners?hl=en (“How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps”), https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=en ("Advertising"), http://www.google.de/settings/ads (“Managing the information Google uses to show you ads”).
10.1.	We use the marketing and remarketing services (“Google Marketing Service”) by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, US, (“Google”) on the basis of our justified interests (interest pertaining to the analysis, optimisation, and economical operation and safety of our Online Offer pursuant to § 6 (1)(f) GDPR).
10.2.	Google is certified with the privacy shield, which guarantees compliance with European data protection regulations (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
10.3.	The Google Marketing Services allow us to only present advertisements for and on our website that are better tailored to the potential interests of Users. If a User is shown e.g. advertisements for products in which he has shown interest other websites, this is referred to as “remarketing”. To this end, on accessing our and other websites with active Google Marketing Services, Google immediately executes a code and includes so-called (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also referred to as “Web Beacons”) into the website. These allow for the storage of a unique cookies (small file) on the User’s device (or comparable technology). The cookies can originate from various domains, including google.com, doubleclick.net, invitemedia.com, admeld.com, googlesyndication.com, or googleadservices.com. This file includes information on the websites visited by the user, in which content interest has been shown, which offers have been clicked on, further information on the browser and operating system, referring websites, time of visit, as well as further information about the use of the Online Offer. In addition, the User’s IP address is logged. We inform Users that the User’s IP address is truncated by Google within EU member states or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address is only transmitted to a Google server in the US and truncated there in exceptional cases. The IP address is not collated with User data within different Google offers. The aforementioned information can be connected by Google to similar information from other sources. If the User subsequently visits other websites, he might be shown advertisements tailored to his interests.
10.4.	User data are pseudonymised for processing within the scope of Google Marketing Services, i.e. Google does not store or process the User e-mail address or name, but rather the relevant data related to the cookie within the pseudonymised User profile. Google does not manage and display advertisements for and to a specifically identified person, but rather for the owner of the cookie, regardless of who the owner is, except for those cases in which Users expressly consent to Google’s processing of these data without pseudonymisation. The data gathered by the Google Marketing Services about the Users are transmitted to Google and stored on Google servers in the US.
10.5.	The Google Marketing Services used by us include the online advertisement programme “Google AdWords”, each AdWords customer receives a unique “conversion cookie” within the scope of Google AdWords. As such, cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of AdWords customers. The information gathered through these cookies are used to compile conversion statistics for AdWords customers who opted for conversion tracking. The AdWords customers are provided with the overall number of Users who clicked on their advertisements and were subsequently forwarded to a website which includes the conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that allows for the personal identification of Users.
10.6.	We can optionally also use the “Google Optimizer” services, which allows us to perform so-called “A/B testing” to track the effects of certain website modifications (e.g. input field changes, design changes, and the like). Cookies are stored on User devices for these test purposes. All User data are solely processed in a pseudonymised manner.
10.7.	We might additionally use the “Google Tag Manager” to include and manage Google analysis and marketing services in our website.
10.8.	Further information on Google’s use of data for marketing purposes can be found on the overview page: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=en, and Google’s Data Privacy Statement can be accessed here https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

These plugins might display interaction elements or content (e.g. videos, graphics, or textual contributions). They can be recognised by one of the Facebook logos (white “f” on a blue tile, the term “Like”, or a “Thumbs up” sign) or are labelled as such with the additional mention “Facebook Social Plugin”. A list of Facebook Social Plugins and their appearance can be found here https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
11.2.	Facebook is certified with the privacy shield, which guarantees compliance with European data protection regulations (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
11.3.	If a User accesses a function of this Online Offer, which contains such a Plugin, the User device establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The Plugin content is transmitted directly by Facebook to the User device and included into the Online Offer. The processed data allow for the creation of a User usage profile. Thus, we cannot influence the scope of data collection through the Facebook Plugin and will inform Users in accordance with the state of our knowledge.
11.4.	By including the Plugin, Facebook receives information about a User’s access to a certain website of the Online Offer. Facebook can assign the User’s visit to his Facebook account if the User is logged in to Facebook. If Users interact with the Plugins, i.e. by clicking on the Like button or leaving a comment, the relevant information is directly transmitted by your device to Facebook and stored there. If the User is not a member of Facebook, there still exists the possibility of Facebook identifying and storing his IP address. Facebook claims that, in Germany, all IP addresses are anonymised before storage.
11.6.	If a User is a Facebook member and does not want Facebook to collect data on him through this Online Offer and to link these data with his data stored on his Facebook account, he needs to log out from Facebook and delete his cookies before using our Online Offer. The Facebook profile offers further settings to manage or object to the use of data for advertising purposes: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads or through the US website http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the European website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/.

12.3.	The Facebook Pixel enables Facebook to compile a target audience for the display of advertisements (so-called “Facebook Ads”) consisting of Users of our Online Offer. As such, we use the Facebook Pixel to solely display our Facebook Ads to those Facebook Users who demonstrated an interest in our Online Offer and who possess certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products as determined from the browsing history), which we communicate to Facebook (so-called Custom Audiences). The Facebook Pixel helps additionally ensure that our advertisements correspond to the potential interests of Users and do not have a harassing effect. The Facebook Pixel also allows us to trace the efficacy of Facebook advertisement for statistical purposes and market research, by tracking whether Users were transferred to our website after clicking on a Facebook advertisement (so-called “Conversion”).
12.4.	The Facebook Pixel is immediately embedded by Facebook when accessing one of our websites. It can store a so-called cookie (small file) on your computer. If you subsequently log in to Facebook or visit Facebook while logged in, your visit to our Online Offer is registered in your profile. We cannot identify your person through the data collected about you. However, the data are stored and processed by Facebook, allowing for a connection to your User profile to be used by Facebook and for market research. If we transfer data to Facebook for purposes of comparison, these are encrypted locally in the browser before transmitting them to Facebook through an encrypted https connection. The data are solely transferred to compare them to Facebook's data, which are also encrypted.
12.5.	You can object to the gathering and processing of your data by the Facebook Pixel to display Facebook Ads. You can access the specially configured Facebook website to configure which types of advertisements are displayed to you within Facebook.
