Google has subjected itself to the EU-US Privacy Shield Agreement with respect to the exceptional cases in which personal data are transmitted to the USA. The anonymized IP address transmitted by your browser for the purposes of Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data. The legal basis for data processing by Google Analytics is our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR) in the analysis of our website or your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR).
You can prevent the processing of the data collected by the cookies by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

The legal basis for the processing of your data is our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR) in targeted use of advertising or your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR). This website has also activated Google AdSense advertisements by third-party providers.

The website www.crown.com uses the Google Marketing Platform (DoubleClick), which uses cookies to show relevant ads to the user, improve reports on ad campaign performance or prevent the user from seeing the same ads multiple times. Google utilizes a cookie ID to record which ads are shown in which browser and can thereby prevent ads from being shown multiple times. In addition, with the aid of cookie IDs, the Google Marketing Platform can record so-called conversions, which relate to ad requests. For example, this occurs when a user sees a Marketing Platform (DoubleClick) ad and subsequently calls up the advertiser’s website with the same browser and buys something there. According to Google, Google Marketing Platform cookies contain no personal information. Due to the marketing tools being used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and the additional use of the data that Google collects through the use of these tools, and therefore inform you based on what we know: by incorporating the Google Marketing Platform (DoubleClick), Google is informed that you have called up the relevant part of our Internet website or have clicked on an ad from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google attributes the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, the provider may learn your IP address and store it. The legal basis for processing your data is our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR) in the targeted use of advertising or your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR).
You can prevent your participation in this tracking process by suppressing the conversion tracking cookies by making the appropriate setting under the link https://adssettings.google.com to block cookies from the domain www.googleadservices.com. In addition, you can deactivate the interest-based ads from providers that are part of the self-regulation campaign “About Ads” via the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices. Both deactivation settings are deleted by the deletion of your cookies. In addition, you can permanently deactivate them in the Firefox, Internet Explorer and Google Chrome browsers under the link https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. However, in this case, it may not be possible to make full use of all the functions of this offering.
