On the website, we use the Google Analytics Remarketing features in conjunction with the cross-device features of Google Ads and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
This feature enables you to link the advertising target groups created with Google Analytics Remarketing with the cross-device functions of Google Ads and Google DoubleClick. This allows us to display interest-based, personalized ads that have been customized to you based on your past usage and browsing behavior on one device (e.g., mobile phone) on another of your devices (e.g., tablet or PC). If you have given your consent, Google will link the web and app browser history to your Google Account for this purpose. In this way, the same personalized advertising messages can be displayed on any device on which you sign in with your Google Account. To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated user IDs that are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data.

The legitimate interest results from our interest in the anonymous analysis of website visitors for advertising purposes in order to address you in a targeted manner with interest-related advertising.

On the website, there is a possibility to order a free newsletter. When you sign up for it, your email is transferred. The collection of user’s email address is to send the newsletter.
We use for the registration of the newsletter a Double-Opt-In procedure.

The newsletter is sent by a service called “MailChimp”, which is located in the USA. Therefore, the transmitted data is processed in this mentioned jurisdiction. The email delivery MailChimp has certified to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework thus offers a guarantee to comply with the European data protection level (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TO6hAAG&status=Active). The data protection regulations of this service provider can be viewed here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/. "MailChimp" can use the data of the recipients without allocation to an individual user, to optimize its own service or for statistical purposes. The email delivery service does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to itself or to forward the data to third parties. When the newsletter is sent, your user behavior is evaluated by MailChimp. For this evaluation, the e-mails sent contain so-called Web-beacons, more specifically, tracking pixels, which represent one-pixel image files stored on our website. For evaluation purposes, we link the data specified in Section II and the Web-Beacons with your e-mail address and an individual ID.

You can unsubscribe this tracking at any time by clicking on the separate link provided in each e-mail or by informing us through another contact procedure.

If you display the images manually, the above tracking will take place in connection with data processing for the delivery of newsletters, except for the provider MailChimp, no data is forwarded to third parties. The data will be used exclusively for the email delivery of the newsletter.
The data will only be stored until you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Subsequently, the e-mail address will be blocked for the delivery of the newsletter and may be deleted altogether. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time. For this purpose, you will find a corresponding opt-out link in every newsletter.

We have integrated videos and plug-ins of the online video platform "Vimeo" of the operator Vimeo, LLC, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA. The content is stored on the servers of Vimeo and can be played directly from our website. Each time you access a page that offers one or more Vimeo video clips, a direct connection is established between your browser and a Vimeo server in the USA. The information about your visit and your IP address is also stored in the USA. Through interactions with the Vimeo plugins (e.g. clicking the start button), this information is also transmitted to Vimeo and stored in the USA. You can access the Vimeo's Privacy Policy, which explains how the company collects and uses your information: https://vimeo.com/privacy.
If you have a Vimeo user account and you do not want that Vimeo collects information about you and link it to your Vimeo member information through this website, you must log out of Vimeo before visiting this website.
Besides, Vimeo uses the Google Analytics tracker via an iFrame in which the video is played. This is Vimeo's own tracking and we do not have any access to it. You can cancel the tracking through Google Analytics by using the deactivation tools that Google offers for determined Internet browsers.
You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by Google Analytics and
according to your use of the website (including your IP address) as well as prevent Google from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
The legal foundation is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interests). The legitimate interest hereby is that the provider has a legitimate interest in understanding whether and how often the website is used to ensure and improve the functionality of its services. In addition, our legitimate interest lies in an appealing presentation and illustration of our offers through videos on the website for the benefit of the users and a needs-based design of our website.
We currently use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest. We
use the so-called Double-click solution. This means that when you visit our website, no personal data will be forwarded to providers of the plug-ins. You can recognize the provider of the plug-in by the marking on the box above its initial letter or logo. The buttons allow you to communicate directly with the provider of the plug-in. If you click on the marked area and thereby activate it, the plug-in provider receives the information that you have visited the corresponding website of our online service. In addition, the data aforementioned to in Clause II (Processing of data by navigating the website) shall be transmitted.
In Germany, the IP information originated through the Facebook platform will be automatically anonymized after collection. By activating the plug-in, your personal data will be transferred to the Plug-In provider and then store in the USA in case the provider is situated in this jurisdiction. Since the plug-in provider collects data in particular via cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies via your browser's security settings before clicking on the grey box.
We do not influence on the collected data and data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full scope of the data processing, the purposes of data processing, the periods of storage. Moreover, no information is present to us according to the deletion of the raised data by the plug-in providers.
The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as usage profiles, and uses the
following data for purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented designs of its website. Such evaluation is carried out in particular (also for users who are not logged in) to display demand-driven and oriented advertising and to attract your network about your
activities on our website. You are entitled to object to the creation of these user profiles,
whereby you must contact the respective plug-in provider to exercise this right. Through the
plug-ins, we offer the possibility to interact with social networks and other users, so that we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user.
The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interests).
The data transfer takes place regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in
provider and are logged in. If you are logged in at the plug-in provider, your data collected by
us will be directly transferred to your existing account in the platform of the plug-in. If you press
the activated button and, for example, link the page, the plug-in provider also stores this
information in your user account and communicates it publicly to your contacts. We
recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, especially before activating
the button, as this avoids assigning your profile to the plug-in provider.
When you visit our Facebook, Instagram and/or Pinterest profiles, these platforms collect your
personal information. This is also valid if you do not have a respective user account. Please note that we cannot control the type and extent of data processing by social media providers. The providers only provide us with anonymous demographic data in aggregated form, which helps us to get to know our audience better.
