1. Data collation when visiting our web site
If you only use our web site for information purposes, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we only collect data that your browser transmits to our server when you visit our web site. This relates to the following data:
- Our visited web site
- Volume of transmitted data in bytes
- Source/reference from which you reached the page
This data is also saved in so-called logfiles in our system. This data is not saved together with other personal data of the visitor.
Nor does any transfer of this data to third parties take place. In strict compliance with the relevant data protection regulations, our integrated and carefully selected service providers may be the recipients of the data within the framework of the hosting and maintenance of our systems. This is done on the basis of order processing agreements by which the service providers are contractually bound and in this respect we remain responsible for data processing.
Temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the web site. For this, the IP address must be stored for the duration of the session. Storage of data in logfiles takes place to ensure the functionality of the web site. In addition, the files are used to optimise the web site and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.
The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data as well as the storage in the context of the log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. The legitimate interest in the data processing required for this purpose exists in the aforementioned processing purposes.
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose of its collection or processing. In the case of the collection and storage of the data for the provision of the web site, this is the case when the respective session has ended. In the case of storage of the data in logfiles, this is the case seven days after collection at the latest.
According to Art. 21 GDPR, you have the right, at any time, to object to the processing of the data for reasons that arise from your particular situation. We will then no longer process the data unless it is possible to demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or if its processing is for the purpose of enforcing, pursuing or defending legal claims.
To exercise a corresponding objection, the visitor may contact us in particular by email using the e-mail address datenschutz@kraeuterhaus.de. The data will be deleted in case of a legitimate objection.
By using our contact form, the data entered in the input mask will be transmitted to us and saved. At the time of the sending the message, the following data will also be saved:

The conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the relevant facts have been finally clarified. The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted at the latest after a period of seven days from collection of the data.
You can object to the storage of your personal data at any time in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR. The conversation cannot be continued in this case.

11. Use of social media

This website uses Youtube embedding feature to display and play videos of “Youtube” provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), a company registered and operated under Irish law (registration number: 368047) at Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).
The extended privacy mode is used, which, according to the provider, only stores user information when starting to play the video. When the playback of embedded Youtube videos starts, the provider “Youtube” uses cookies to collect information about user behaviour. According to information from “Youtube”, these are used, amongst others, to collect video statistics, improve user-friendliness and prevent abusive practices. If you're logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account when you click on a video. If you do not wish your profile to be assigned on YouTube, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for users not logged-in) as usage profiles and evaluates them. According to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, such an evaluation is based on the legitimate interests of Google in the display of personalised advertising, market research and/or tailor-made design of its web site. You have a right to object to the creation of these user profiles, but you must contact YouTube to exercise your right.
Regardless of any playback of the embedded video, every time you visit this web site, it will connect to the Google Network “DoubleClick”, which may trigger further data processing without our having any influence.
Google LLC, located in the USA, is certified under the US-European data protection agreement “Privacy Shield”, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection in the EU.

Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). We use the Google Ads service to draw attention to our attractive offers with the help of advertising materials (so-called Google Ads) on external web sites. In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. We are interested in showing you advertisements that are of interest to you, to make our web site more interesting to you and to achieve a fair calculation of advertising costs.
The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an AdWords ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files, which are stored on your computer system. These cookies generally lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this web site and the cookie has not expired yet, Google and we can recognise that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Every Google Ads advertiser receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot be tracked through AdWords advertisers' web sites. The information gathered using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords advertisers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a conversion tracking tag page. However, they do not receive information that personally identifies users. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can easily block use by disabling the Google Conversion Tracking cookie via your Internet browser under User Preferences. Then you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. We use Google Ads based on our legitimate interest in a targeted advertising according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

The information generated by cookies on the use of this web site (including the shortened IP address) are generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
This website uses Google Analytics exclusively with the extension “_anonymizeIp ()”, which ensures anonymisation of the IP address by shortening and excludes a direct personal reference. The extension means that your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or other contract states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address is sent to and shortened by Google servers in the USA. In these exceptional cases, this processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR based on our legitimate interest in the statistical analysis of user behaviour for optimisation and marketing purposes.
On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the web site, to compile reports on web site activity and to provide other services related to web site activity and Internet usage to us. The IP address provided by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be compiled with other Google data.

When a page is first visited, the user is assigned a unique, permanent and anonymised ID that is set across devices. This makes it possible to assign interaction data from different devices and from different sessions to a single user. The user ID does not contain any personal data and does not transmit it to Google.
