Geniatech Europe GmbH is a member of the partner programme operated by Amazon Europe S. à. R. l., and a partner in the advertising programme which was designed to provide a medium for websites by which advertising costs discounts could be earned through the placement of adverts and links to amazon.de. The aim of this programme is to show you advertising that could be interesting to you and to make our website more attractive for our users.
In order to show adverts, statistical information about you is recorded and processed by our advertising partners. When you visit our website, Amazon is given the information that you have accessed the relevant page of our website. Amazon uses Web Beacons to determine your requirements and, where applicable, sets a cookie on your computer. The data set out in section 2. a. of this policy is transmitted. We have no influence on the data collected, nor are we fully aware of the level of data collected and the period for which it is saved. If you are logged into Amazon, your data can be assigned directly to your account there. If you do not wish to have this link to your Amazon profile, you need to log out.

The data is transferred to the USA, where it is analysed. The legal basis for the processing of your data is article 6, para. 1, clause 1, letter f, GDPR.
You can prevent the Amazon partner programme installing cookies in various ways: a) by adjusting the settings in your browser software, disabling third-party cookies means you will not receive adverts from external providers; b) by deactivating ads personalisation in Amazon under the link http://www.amazon.de/gp/dra/info; c) by deactivating ads personalisation for the providers who are part of the “About Ads” self-regulation campaign by going to the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices, although these settings are deleted when you delete your cookies.

We use Google AdWords services in order to utilise advertising (known as Google AdWords) to draw attention to our attractive offers from external websites. We can use the data from the advertising campaigns to determine how successful individual advertising measures are. This allows us to show you advertising which is interesting to you, make our website more attractive for you and achieve a fair calculation of advertising costs.
This advertising is delivered by Google via what are known as “Ad Servers”. To do this, we use Ad Server cookies, which allow certain success measurement parameters to be measured, these include display of the adverts or clicks by the user. If you access our website via a Google advert, Google AdWords saves a cookie to your PC. As a rule, these cookies cease to be valid after 30 days and should not be able to identify you personally. Generally, this cookie contains analysis values such as the unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions) and opt-out information (notification that the user no longer wishes to be targeted).
These cookies allow Google to recognise your Internet browser again. When a user visits certain pages on the website of an AdWords customer and the cookie on their computer has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognise that the user has clicked on the advert and been forwarded to this page. Every AdWords customer is assigned a different cookie. This means cookies cannot be traced via the websites of AdWords customers. We ourselves do not collect and process personal data as part of these advertising measures. All we receive from Google is statistical reports for tracking purposes. Based on these reports, we can determine which of the advertising measures we use are most effective. We do not receive more detailed information based on the use of this advertising, and in particular we cannot use this information to identify users.
Based on the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to the Google server. We have no influence on the extent and the further processing of data collected by Google through the use of these tools and can therefore inform you based on our knowledge only: The use of AdWords Conversion provides Google with the information that you have accessed the relevant parts of our website or clicked on one of our adverts. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can attribute this visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or not logged in, it is possible for the provider to find out and save your IP address.
You can block these tracking processes in various ways: a) by adjusting the settings in your browser software, disabling third-party cookies means you will not receive adverts from external providers; b) by deactivating cookies for Conversion Tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com”, https://www.google.de/settings/ads, although this setting is deleted when you delete your cookies; c) by deactivating ads personalisation for the providers who are part of the “About Ads” self-regulation campaign by going to the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices, although this setting is deleted when you delete your cookies; d) by deactivating permanently in your Firefox, Internet Explorer or Google Chrome browser by going to the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices. We would like to point out that, in this case, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this service.

As well as AdWords Conversion, we use the Google Remarketing application. This is a process by which we hope to appeal to you again.

This is based on cookies saved in your browser, through which Google records and evaluates your behaviour as you visit various websites. This means Google can see that you have previously visited our website. According to Google, it does not combine any data collected in line with Remarketing with any personal data which Google may hold about you. Google stresses that it uses a pseudonym-based process for remarketing.

This allows users of the website to be shown adverts related to their interests (“Facebook Ads”) when they visit the social network Facebook or other websites using the process. The aim of this is to show you advertising that is interesting to you in order to make the design of our website more attractive for you.

We use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn. We use what is called the two-click solution. This means, if you visit our site, no personal data is initially passed on to the provider of the plug-in. You can recognise the providers of the plug-ins via their initial letters or logos on the respective boxes. By clicking on the button, you can communicate directly with the provider of the plug-in. Only if you click on the selected box and thereby activate it, will the plug-in provider be given the information that you have accessed the relevant page of our website. The data set out in section 2. a. of this policy is also transmitted. According to the providers themselves, Facebook and Xing automatically anonymise all IP addresses in Germany immediately after receiving them. Therefore, activating the plug-in sends personal data about you to the relevant plug-in provider, which then saves it (in the USA, in the case of American providers). As the plug-in providers primarily collect data via cookies, we recommend deleting all cookies via the security settings in your browser before clicking on the greyed-out box.

You have the right to object to the formation of these user profiles, but you will need to contact the respective plug-in provider to exert this right. The plug-ins give you the opportunity to interact with the social networks and other users, so that we can improve our services and make them more interesting for other users. The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is article 6, para. 1, clause 1, letter f, GDPR.
Data is passed on irrespective of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and whether you are logged in. If you are logged in to the plug-in provider, the data collected from us is assigned directly to your existing account with the plug-in provider. If you press the activated button and, for example, link to the page, the plug-in provider also saves this information to your user account and shares it with your contacts in public. We recommend logging out on a regular basis after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, in order to avoid links to your profile with the plug-in provider.
