The website operator has an authorized interest in the storage of cookies in order to ensure that it can provide its services in technically error-free and optimized fashion. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for the analysis of your surfing behavior) are stored, these are treated separately in this data protection declaration.

Analysis tools and advertisement Google Analytics This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies.” These are text files that are stored on your computer and that allow for your use of the website to be analyzed. The information generated by cookies about your use of this website is in general transferred to a server by Google in the U.S. and stored there. The storage of Google Analytics cookies is done in compliance with Art. 6 Par. 1 let. f DSGVO. The website operator has an authorized interest in the analysis of user behavior so as to optimize its web offerings as well as its advertising. Browser Plug-in You can prevent the storage of cookies through a corresponding setting in your browser software; we nevertheless indicate that, in this case, it is possible that not all functions of this website can be used in full. Moreover, you can prevent the recording of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Order data processing We have concluded a contract on order data processing with Google, and fully implement the strict specifications of the German data protection authorities in the use of Google Analytics. Demographic features with Google Analytics This website uses the function “demographic features” from Google Analytics. Thus, reports can be created that contain statements on the age, sex, and interests of visitors to the site. This data comes from interest-related advertising on Google as well as from visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot be attributed to any one person. You can deactivate this function at any time via the display settings in your Google account, or you can prohibit the recording of your data by Google Analytics as presented generally in the point “Objection to data recording.” Google Analytics Remarketing Our websites use the functions of Google Analytics Remarketing in connection with the multi-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. This function makes it possible to connect the advertising target groups created with Google Analytics Remarketing with the multi-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. In this way, interest-related, personalized advertising offers, which depending on your earlier usage and surfing behavior have been adjusted to and end device (e.g. cellphone) for you, can also be displayed on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC). If you have given a corresponding permission, for this purpose, Google connects your web and app browser activity with your Google account. In this way, for each device on which you log in with your Google account, the same personalized advertising messages will be activated. To support this function, Google Analytics records Google-authenticated IDs of the user, which are largely connected with our Google Analytics data in order to define and create target groups for the multi-device display advertising. You can prohibit multi-device remarketing/targeting in the long-term by deactivating personalized advertising in your Google account; for this, follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/. The summary of the data recorded in your Google account is done exclusively with your permission, which you can give or revoke with Google (Art. 6 Par. 1 let. a DSGVO). In data recording processes that are not merged into your Google account (e.g. because you don’t have a Google account or have forbidden the compilation), the recording of the data is done in compliance with Art. 6 Par. 1 let. f DSGVO. The authorized interest comes from the fact that the website operator has an interest in the anonymized analysis of visitors to the website for advertising purposes. You can find further information and data protection determinations in Google’s data protection declaration under: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/. Google AdWords and Google Conversion-Tracking This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”). Under Google Adwords, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on a display placed by Google, a cookie is placed for the conversion tracking. Cookies are small text files which the internet browser deposits on the user’s computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used to personally identify the user. If the user visits certain sites on this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user has clicked on the display and been forwarded to this site. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot keep track of the websites of AdWords customers. The information gathered with the help of conversion cookies serves to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted into conversion tracking. Customers learn the overall number of users who have clicked on the display and who were forwarded to a site provided with a conversion-tracking tag. But, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified. If you would not like to participate in the tracking, you can prevent this use by deactivating the Google conversion-tracking cookie on your internet browser under user settings. You will then not be recorded in the conversion-tracking statistics. The storage of “conversion cookies” is done on the basis of Art. 6 Par. 1 let. f DSGVO. The website operator has an authorized interest in the analysis of user behavior in order to optimize its web offer as well as its advertising.

Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and consequently provides a guarantee of compliance with European data protection legislation (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active). The Facebook pixel allows Facebook, firstly, to define the visitors to our online offering as a target group for the presentation of advertisements ("Facebook ads"). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel only to show the Facebook ads placed by us to those Facebook users that have also shown an interest in our online offering or who show particular characteristics (e.g. interest in particular topics or products defined on the basis of web pages visited) which we forward to Facebook ("Custom Audiences"). Using the Facebook pixel, we would also like to ensure that our Facebook ads match the potential interest of the users and are not perceived as annoying. With the Facebook pixel, we can also trace the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether users are forwarded to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad ("Conversion"). Data is processed by Facebook within the framework of Facebook's data usage policy. Accordingly, there are general guidelines on the presentation of Facebook ads in the Facebook data usage policy: https://www.facebook.com/policy. You will find specific information and details about the Facebook pixel and how it works in the Facebook help pages: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/651294705016616. You can object to the capture of your data by the Facebook pixel and use of your data for the showing of Facebook ads. To define what types of advertisements are shown to you within Facebook, you can call up the page set up by Facebook and follow the instructions there on the settings for use-based advertising: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads. Settings are carried out irrespective of platform, i.e. they are taken over for all devices such as desktop computers or mobile devices. 5. Newsletter Newsletter2Go This website uses Newsletter2Go for the sending of newsletters. The provider is Newsletter2Go GmbH, Nürnberger Straße 8, 10787 Berlin, Germany. Newsletter2Go is a service using which the sending of newsletters can be organized and analyzed. The data which you provide for the purpose of the newsletter is stored by us as well as on the servers of Newsletter2Go in Germany. Data analysis by Newsletter2Go With the help of Newsletter2Go, it is possible for us to analyze our newsletter campaigns. Thus, we can see, for example, whether a newsletter message has been opened, and which links, if any, were clicked on. In this way, we can establish, among other things, which links in particular are clicked often. Moreover, we can recognize whether, after opening/clicking, certain previously defined actions were undertaken (conversion rate). Thus, we can recognize, for example, whether, after clicking on the newsletter, a purchase was initiated. Newsletter2Go also allows us to divide the newsletter recipients using various categories (“clusters”). Thus, the newsletter receivers can be divided, for example, according to age, sex, or place of residence. In this way, the newsletter can better be adjusted to the respective target groups. You can get detailed information on the functions of Newsletter2Go under the following link: https://www.newsletter2go.de/features/newsletter-software/. If you do not want the analysis by Newsletter2Go, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter, because receipt of the newsletter without the corresponding analysis is not possible. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter by clicking on the email address stored there and then sending the email. Legal foundation The data processing is done based on your willingness (Art. 6 Par. 1 let. a DSGVO). You can revoke this permission at any time with effect for the future. The legality of the data processing procedures remains unaffected by the revocation. Length of storage The data stored with us for the purpose of the newsletter offering is stored by us until you deregister from the newsletter, and, after you unsubscribe from the newsletter, is deleted from our servers as well as from the servers of Newsletter2Go. Data that is stored by us for other purposes (e.g. email addresses for the member area) remain unaffected by this. You will find more information on the data protection provisions of Newsletter2Go under: https://www.newsletter2go.de/features/datenschutz-2/. Conclusion of a contract about order data processing We have concluded a contract with Newsletter2Go in which we obligate Newsletter2Go to protect the data of our customers and not to forward this to third parties.

Plug-ins and Tools YouTube We have incorporated YouTube videos on our website that are stored by http://www.youtube.com (Provider: YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA) and that can be played back on our website. In this, the expanded data protection mode is used in which, according to the information from YouTube, user information is not stored. If you start an embedded YouTube video, cookies from YouTube are thus stored on your computer in order to collect information about your usage behavior. You are thus logged in with a product of the YouTube mother corporation Google Inc.; Google can assign the visit to our online offering and your usage behavior to your Google profile in certain circumstances. Independent from the replay of the embedded videos, with each calling up of a website with a YouTube video, a connection to the Google network “DoubleClick” is undertaken. For the purpose and scope of the data collection and further processing and usage of data by Google as well as the associated rights and setting possibilities for the protection of your private domain, please see the data protection notes from Google or YouTube. You will find this under https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/. Facebook We currently use the social media plug-in from Facebook. You can recognize the provider of the plug-in on our homepage, on the button with the “f”. When you visit our website, at first, no personal data is forwarded to the provider of the plug-in. Only when you actively click on the letter, thus activating the “button” and logging in/registering with Facebook, does the provider receive the information that you have called up the corresponding website of our online offer. According to its own information, in Germany, Facebook will anonymize your IP address immediately after it is collected. In activating the plug-in, personal data is transferred from you to Facebook and stored there. We neither have influence on the data collected and the data processing procedures, nor do we know the full extent of the data collection, the purposes of the processing, and the storage timelines. On this, we recommend that you look at the data protection declaration of Facebook under https://www.facebook.com/privacy/explanation. Use of Twitter We likewise use the services of Twitter and have incorporated the “social plug-in” of Twitter into our homepage. The connection to Twitter, however, is not established until you actively click on the button. Not until you have activated the button and/or use the functions from Twitter, for example, by using the function “re-tweet,” are the websites you have visited linked to your Twitter account and made known to other users. Thus, data is also transferred to Twitter. We indicate that we have and receive no knowledge of the contents of the transferred data, as well as their use by Twitter. You can get further information on the purpose of the data recording and processing from Twitter, Inc. 1355 Market St. Sweet 900 San Francisco, California 94103, USA: https://twitter.com/privacy. Twitter has subjected itself to the eu-us-privacy-shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/European-Businesses. You can change your data protection settings for Twitter in the account settings. Xing On our website, we have incorporated the button for the network “Xing”. In actively clicking the button, your browser will generate in the short-term a connection to the servers of XING SE („XING“, Xing AG, Gänsemarkt 43, 20354 Hamburg, DE; http://www.xing.com/privacy ). In calling up this website, no personal data is stored by XING. XING in particular stores no IP addresses.

The use of Google Maps is done in the interest of a corresponding presentation of our online offers and the easy retrievability of the locations entered by us on the website. This presents an authorized interest in the sense of Art. 6 Par. 1 let. f DSGVO. You can find more information on the procedures with user data in Google's data protection declaration from: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/. 7. Service provider/third-party company We commission other companies and individual parties to fulfill tasks for us. Thus, service providers are commissioned to process data on behalf of us, such as, for example, to analyze and tend to our databases, and to maintain our software and hardware. Likewise, we commission the help of service providers in ordering products, supporting advertising measures, processing payments (credit card, direct debit, and purchase on account) and for general customer service. All service providers and third-party companies work in concord with the applicable laws, in particular the valid data protection regulation. With our service providers, we have concluded agreements about data processing on our behalf that satisfy the requirements of Art. 28 DSGVO, insofar as the corresponding legal specifications are available for this.
