2. Analysis tools and advertising

Here’s the translation of your text into English:

General Information

The following notes provide a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website. Personal data is any data that can be used to identify you personally. Detailed information on data protection can be found in our privacy policy listed below this text.

When visiting this website, your browsing behavior may be statistically evaluated. This is done primarily using so-called analysis programs and cookies. By using our website, you consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies for analysis and advertising purposes. You can deactivate the collection of your data by the mentioned analysis tools and advertising platforms at any time by adjusting the settings in your browser or in the privacy settings of the respective platforms. Detailed information about the analysis programs listed on this website is provided below.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service from Google LLC, to collect information about how visitors use our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect data about user behavior, including page views, time spent on the website, and interactions. This data helps us improve the user experience and tailor our website better to the needs of our users.

Demographic Features in Google Analytics

This website uses the "demographic features" function of Google Analytics. This allows reports to be generated that contain information about the age, gender, and interests of the website visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google as well as visitor data from third parties. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can disable this feature at any time through the ad settings in your Google account or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the section "Objection to Data Collection."

Google Analytics Remarketing

Our websites use the functions of Google Analytics Remarketing in conjunction with the cross-device features of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

This function allows the advertising target groups created with Google Analytics Remarketing to be linked with the cross-device features of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. In this way, interest-based, personalized advertising messages that have been tailored to your previous usage and browsing behavior on one device (e.g., mobile phone) can also be displayed on another of your devices (e.g., tablet or PC).

If you have given appropriate consent, Google links your web and app browsing history to your Google account for this purpose. This allows the same personalized advertising messages to be displayed on any device where you log in with your Google account.

To support this function, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated IDs of users, which are temporarily linked with our Google Analytics data to define and create target audiences for cross-device advertising.

You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by disabling personalized advertising in your Google account; please follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.

The summary of the collected data in your Google account occurs solely based on your consent, which you can provide or revoke at Google (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR). For data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g., because you do not have a Google account or have objected to merging), the collection of data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest arises from the fact that the website operator has an interest in the anonymized analysis of website visitors for advertising purposes.

Further information and the data protection provisions can be found in Google’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/.

Google Ads Conversion Tracking

We use Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) as an online marketing measure to promote our products and services. We aim to raise awareness of the high quality of our offerings among more people on the internet. As part of our advertising measures through Google Ads, we use the conversion tracking of Google Inc. on our website. In Europe, however, the company responsible for all Google services is Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland). With this free tracking tool, we can better tailor our advertising offerings to your interests and needs. In the following article, we will explain in more detail why we use conversion tracking, what data is stored, and how you can prevent this data storage.

Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) is Google Inc.'s in-house online advertising system. We are convinced of the quality of our offerings and want as many people as possible to get to know our website. In the online space, Google Ads provides the best platform for this. Of course, we also want to gain a precise overview of the cost-benefit factor of our advertising campaigns. That’s why we use Google Ads' conversion tracking tool.

But what is a conversion? A conversion occurs when you go from being a purely interested website visitor to an acting visitor. This happens whenever you click on our ad and then perform another action, such as visiting our website. With Google's conversion tracking tool, we capture what happens after a user clicks on our Google Ads ad. For example, we can see whether products are purchased, services are used, or whether users have signed up for our newsletter.

Why do we use Google Ads Conversion Tracking on our website?

We use Google Ads to draw attention to our offerings on other websites as well. The goal is to ensure that our advertising campaigns reach only those people who are interested in our offerings. With the conversion tracking tool, we can see which keywords, ads, ad groups, and campaigns lead to the desired customer actions. We see how many customers interact with our ads on one device and then perform a conversion. With this data, we can calculate our cost-benefit factor, measure the success of individual advertising measures, and consequently optimize our online marketing efforts. Furthermore, we can use the data obtained to make our website more interesting for you and to tailor our advertising offerings even more individually to your needs.

What data is stored with Google Ads Conversion Tracking?

We have integrated a conversion tracking tag or code snippet on our website to better analyze certain user actions. If you click on one of our Google Ads ads, the cookie "Conversion" from a Google domain is stored on your computer (usually in the browser) or mobile device. Cookies are small text files that store information on your computer.

Here are the data of the most important cookies for Google’s conversion tracking:

Name: Conversion
Value: EhML_aySuoyv4g|Vled3ChOllweVGAEgt-mr6aXd7dYISAGQ331707755033-3
Purpose: This cookie stores each conversion you make on our site after coming to us via a Google ad.
Expiration Date: after 3 months
Name: _gac
Value: 1.1558695989.EAla|QobChMliOmEgY004g|Vj5AYCh2CBAPrEAAYASAAEg|YQfD_BwE
Purpose: This is a classic Google Analytics cookie and is used to capture various actions on our website.
Expiration Date: after 3 months

Note: The cookie _gac appears only in connection with Google Analytics. The above list is not exhaustive, as Google continually uses other cookies for analytical evaluation.

Once you complete an action on our website, Google recognizes the cookie and stores your action as a so-called conversion. As long as you surf on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google recognize that you found us through our Google Ads ad. The cookie is read and the conversion data is sent back to Google Ads. It is also possible that other cookies are used to measure conversions. Google Ads conversion tracking can be further refined and improved using Google Analytics.

For ads that Google displays at various locations on the web, cookies named "_gads" or "_gac" may be set under our domain. Since September 2017, various campaign information from analytics.js has been stored with the _gac cookie. The cookie stores this data as soon as you visit one of our pages for which Google Ads' automatic tagging has been set up.

Unlike cookies set for Google domains, Google can only read these conversion cookies when you are on our website. We do not collect or receive any personal data. We receive a report from Google with statistical evaluations. For example, we learn the total number of users who clicked on our ad and see which advertising measures were well received.

How long and where is the data stored?

At this point, we would like to point out that we have no influence on how Google uses the collected data. According to Google, the data is encrypted and stored on secure servers. In most cases, conversion cookies expire after 30 days and do not transmit personal data. The cookies named “Conversion” and “gac” (which is used in connection with Google Analytics) have an expiration date of 3 months.

How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

You have the option to not participate in Google Ads conversion tracking.

If you disable the Google conversion tracking cookie via your browser, you block the conversion tracking. In this case, you will not be included in the statistics of the tracking tool. You can change the cookie settings in your browser at any time. This works slightly differently for each browser.

If you generally do not want cookies, you can set your browser to always inform you when a cookie is to be set. This way, you can decide for each individual cookie whether to allow it or not. By downloading and installing this browser plug-in at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/7395996, all "advertising cookies" will also be disabled. Please note that by disabling these cookies, you do not prevent advertisements but only personalized advertising.

Legal Basis

If you have consented to the use of Google Ads conversion tracking, the legal basis for the corresponding data processing is this consent.

This consent constitutes the legal basis for the processing of personal data, as can occur during the collection by Google Ads conversion tracking, according to Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR (consent).

From our side, there is also a legitimate interest in using Google Ads conversion tracking to optimize our online service and marketing measures. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). However, we only use Google Ads conversion tracking to the extent that you have given consent.

Google processes data about you, among other things, in the USA. Google is an active participant in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which regulates the correct and secure transfer of personal data from EU citizens to the USA. More information can be found at https://commission.europa.eu/document/fa09cbad-dd7d-4684-ae60-be03fcb0fddf_en.

In addition, Google uses so-called standard contractual clauses (= Art. 46 (2) and (3) GDPR). Standard contractual clauses (SCC) are templates provided by the EU Commission and are intended to ensure that your data complies with European data protection standards even when transferred to third countries (such as the USA) and stored there. Through the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and the standard contractual clauses, Google commits to maintaining the European level of data protection when processing your relevant data, even if the data is stored, processed, and managed in the USA. These clauses are based on an implementing decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the corresponding standard contractual clauses here: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2021/914/oj?locale=de.
