If we disclose data to other persons and companies (contract processors or third parties) within the scope of our processing, transmit the data to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this shall only take place on the basis of a legal permission (e.g. if a transmission of the data to third parties, such as payment service providers, in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR is required for contract fulfilment), you have consented, a legal obligation provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosts, etc.).
If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if this occurs in the context of the use of third-party services or disclosure or transfer of data to third parties, this only takes place if it occurs for the fulfilment of our (pre)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, on the basis of a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we process or leave the data in a third country only in the presence of the special requirements of Art. 44 ff. GDPR. This means, for example, processing is carried out on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognised determination of a data protection level corresponding to the EU (e.g. for the USA by the “Privacy Shield”) or compliance with officially recognised special contractual obligations (so-called “standard contractual clauses”).

Based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. DSGVO) we use the plugin Jetpack (here the subfunction “WordPress Stats”), which includes Includes Visitor Access Statistical Evaluation Tool and Automattic Inc., 60 29th Street # 343, San Francisco, CA 94110, USA. Google Analytics uses “cookies,” which are text files that are stored on your computer and which help analyze your use of the website.
We use Google Analytics only with activated IP anonymisation. This means that the IP address of the user is shortened by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other countries that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there.
Further information on data use by Google, setting and objection options, can be found in Google’s data protection policy (https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads) and in the settings for the display of advertisements by Google (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).
Based on our rightful interest in the analysis, optimization and efficient operation of our online offer, we have decided to use the so-called “Facebook pixel”, for our online offerings, provided by the social network, Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, or, in case you are based in the EU, Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”).
With the help of Facebook pixel, Facebook is able to determine the visitors of our online offer as a target group for the presentation of advertisements (so-called “Facebook ads”). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel to display the Facebook ads we post only to Facebook users who have shown an interest in our website or who have certain features (e.g. interests in certain topics or products that are determined by the websites visited) that we transmit to Facebook (so-called “custom audiences”). With the help of the Facebook pixel, we want to make sure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of the users and are not annoying. The Facebook pixel also helps us understand the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and marketing research purposes by showing and evaluating whether users are directed to our site after they have clicked a Facebook ad (so-called “conversion”).
You can object to collection by Facebook pixel and use of your data for Facebook ads. To set which types of ads you see within Facebook, you can go to the page set up by Facebook and follow the instructions for the usage-based advertising settings: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads. The settings are not dependent of platform, i.e. they are applied to all devices, such as desktop computers or mobile devices.
Within the framework of our online offers, we use so-called social plugins (“plugins”) provided by the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”), 1 lit. f. GDPR) we include content or service offerings of third parties so that we can incorporate their content and services, such as videos or fonts (hereinafter uniformly referred to as “content”).
This always presupposes that the third-party providers of this content can see the IP address of users, since without the IP address they would not be able to send the content to the users’ browsers. The IP address is therefore necessary in order to display this content. We strive only to use content from providers who use the IP address to deliver content, and for nothing else. Third-party providers may also use “pixel tags” (invisible graphics, also known as “web beacons”) for statistical or marketing purposes. The “pixel tags” enable the analysis of information such as the traffic of visitors on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on the user’s device and may include technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, visiting time and other information about the use of our online offering. It may also be linked to such information from other sources.
Based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 para. on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of art. 6 para.1 lit. f. of the DSGVO). The plugins can display interaction elements or content (e.g. videos, graphics or text contributions) and are identified by a Facebook logo (white “f” on a blue tile, the term “Like”, or a “thumbs up” sign) or by the phrase “Facebook social plugin”. The list and the appearance of Facebook social plugins can be viewed here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
When a user accesses a feature of these online offerings that contain such a plug-in, his/her device establishes a direct connection to Facebook’s servers. The content of the plug-in is transmitted by Facebook directly to the user’s device and integrated into the online offer. Pseudonymous usage profiles of users may be created from the processed data in this respect. We therefore have no influence on the scope of the data which Facebook collects using this plugin and inform you according of our knowledge.
By including the plugin, Facebook receives the information that a user has accessed the corresponding page of the online offer. If you are logged into Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plug-ins, for example, if you click the Like button or write a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted from your browser directly to Facebook and stored there. If you are not a member of Facebook, there is still the possibility that Facebook will receive your IP address and store it. According to Facebook, in Germany, only an anonymized IP address will be stored.
If a user is a Facebook member and does not want Facebook to collect data about him/her via this online offer and link it to his/her membership data stored on Facebook, s/he must log out of Facebook before using our online offer and delete his/her cookies. More settings and ways to revoke permission to use your data for advertising purposes are available in your Facebook profile settings:: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads or via the US website http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. The settings are not dependent of platform, i.e. they are applied to all devices, such as desktop computers or mobile devices.
