§ 8 ONLINE MARKETING

(1) Facebook Pixel for creating custom audiences with advanced data matching (with cookie consent tool)
Our online offering uses the so-called “Facebook pixel” of the social network Facebook in extended data matching mode, which is operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”).
Based on their express consent, when a user clicks on an ad displayed on Facebook and placed by us, an addition is added to the URL of our linked page by Facebook Pixel. This URL parameter is then written into the user's browser via a cookie after forwarding, which our linked page itself sets. In addition, this cookie records specific customer data such as the email address that we collect on our website linked to the Facebook ad during processes such as purchases, account registrations or registrations (extended data comparison). The cookie is then read by Facebook Pixel and enables the data, including the specific customer data, to be forwarded to Facebook.
With the help of the Facebook pixel with extended data matching, Facebook is able to precisely determine the visitors to our online offering as a target group for the display of advertisements (so-called "Facebook ads"). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel with extended data matching to only display the Facebook ads placed by us to those Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products determined based on the websites visited) that we transmit to Facebook (so-called "custom audiences"). With the help of the Facebook pixel with extended data matching, we also want to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interests of users and do not appear annoying. In this way, we can further evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements for statistical and market research purposes by tracking whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook advertisement (so-called "conversion"). Compared to the standard Facebook Pixel, the enhanced matching feature helps us better measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns by capturing more attributed conversions.
All transmitted data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook data usage policy ( https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/ ). The data can enable Facebook and its partners to place advertisements on and outside of Facebook.
These processing operations are carried out exclusively with the granting of express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
The information generated by Facebook is usually transferred to a Facebook server and stored there; this may also involve transmission to the servers of Meta Platforms Inc. in the USA. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

(2) - Google AdSense


This website uses Google AdSense, a web advertising service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google").

- Google Ads conversion tracking
This website uses the online advertising program "Google Ads" and, as part of Google Ads, the conversion tracking of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). We use the Google Ads service to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites using advertising materials (so-called Google Adwords). We can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are in relation to the data from the advertising campaigns. Our aim is to show you advertising that is of interest to you, to make our website more interesting for you and to achieve a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.
The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an Ads ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.

In order to target users whose data we have received as part of business or business-like relationships with advertising that is more tailored to their interests, we use a customer matching function as part of Google Ads. To do this, we send one or more files with aggregated customer data (primarily email addresses and telephone numbers) to Google electronically. Google does not receive access to clear data, but automatically encrypts the information in the customer files during the transmission process using a special algorithm. The encrypted information can then only be used by Google to assign it to existing Google accounts that the data subjects have set up. This enables personalized advertising to be displayed across all Google services linked to the respective Google account.
Customer data will only be transmitted to Google if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a of GDPR. You can revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future. Further information on Google's data protection measures in relation to the customer matching function can be found here: https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/6334160?hl=de&ref_topic=10550182

Pinterest tag conversion tracking
This website uses the conversion tracking technology “Pinterest Tag” of Pinterest Europe Ltd., Palmerston House, 2nd Floor, Fenian Street, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Pinterest”).
If you have accessed our website from a pin on Pinterest, we will place a cookie on your computer that interacts with a "tag" in the form of a JavaScript code from Pinterest. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device. These cookies expire after 180 days and are not used for personal identification.
If the user is redirected from a pin on Pinterest to pages on this website and the cookie has not yet expired, the tag records certain user actions predefined by us and can track them (e.g. completed transactions, leads, search queries on the website, visits to product pages). When such an action is carried out, your browser sends an HTTP request from the cookie to the Pinterest server via the Pinterest tag, with which certain information about the action (including type of action, time, browser type of the end device) is transmitted.
Through this transmission, Pinterest can create statistics about the usage behavior on our website after forwarding from a Pinterest pin, which we use to optimize our offering.

TikTok can also combine the information collected via the pixel with other information that TikTok has collected via other websites and / or in connection with the use of the social network "TikTok" and thus create pseudonymized user profiles. Under no circumstances can the information collected be used to personally identify visitors to this website.
The TikTok pixel also enables us to track the effectiveness of advertisements on TikTok. If the user is redirected from an ad on TikTok to pages on this website and the cookies have not yet expired, the pixel records certain user actions predefined by us and can track them (e.g. completed transactions, leads, search queries on the website, views of product pages).

§ 13 DURATION OF STORAGE OF PERSONAL DATA

The duration for which personal data is stored is determined based on the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing and – if applicable – also on the respective statutory retention period (e.g. retention periods under commercial and tax law).

When personal data is processed on the basis of an explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, these data will be stored until the data subject revokes his or her consent.

If there are statutory retention periods for data that are processed within the framework of legal or quasi-legal obligations on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, these data will be routinely deleted after expiry of the retention periods, provided that they are no longer required to fulfill or initiate a contract and/or we no longer have a legitimate interest in continuing to store them.

When processing personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, these data will be stored until the data subject exercises his or her right of objection in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

When processing personal data for the purpose of direct advertising on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, these data will be stored until the data subject exercises his or her right of objection in accordance with Art. 21 (2) GDPR.

Unless the other information in this declaration on specific processing situations states otherwise, stored personal data will be deleted when they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
