2.7 Analysis tools

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your web browser and that enable your use of the website to be analyzed (see cookies above). The information generated by cookies (browser type/version, operating system used, referrer URL of previously visited website, IP address, time of server request) about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymization is activated on our website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within Member States of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for the website operator and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. By using this website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.

2.8 Advertising tools

Google Ads

The data controller uses Google Ads, an Internet advertising service that allows advertisers to place ads both in Google’s search engine results and in the Google advertising network. Google Ads allows an advertiser to specify certain keywords in advance, which are used to display an ad in Google’s search engine results exclusively when the user uses the search engine to retrieve a keyword-relevant search result. In the Google advertising network, the ads are distributed to relevant websites using an automatic algorithm and taking into account the previously defined keywords.

The operating company of the Google Ads services is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The purpose of Google Ads is to advertise our website by displaying interest-relevant advertising on the websites of third-party companies and in the search engine results of the Google search engine and by displaying third-party advertising on our website. If a data subject reaches our website via a Google ad, a so-called conversion cookie is stored on the data subject’s IT system by Google. Further information and the applicable data protection policies of Google may be retrieved under https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

Google Remarketing

The data controller has integrated Google Remarketing services on this website. Google Remarketing is a function of Google Ads that enables a company to display advertising to Internet users who have previously visited the company’s website. The prerequisite for this is the activation of so-called Google signals in Google Analytics. The integration of Google Remarketing therefore allows a company to create user-related advertising and consequently to display advertisements relevant to the interests of the Internet user.

The operating company of the Google Remarketing services is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The purpose of Google Remarketing is to display interest-based advertising. Google Remarketing enables us to display advertisements via the Google advertising network or on other websites that are tailored to the individual needs and interests of Internet users. Further information and the applicable data protection policies of Google may be retrieved under https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/abgerufen.
