Our website uses the remarketing or “similar
target groups” function by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain
View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). This function serves to analyse visitor
behaviour and visitor interests. Google uses cookies to analyse website use,
forming the basis for producing interest-related adverts. Cookies allow for
the recording of website visits as well as anonymised data on the use of the
website. The personal data of website visitors is not saved. If you then visit

“Google Ads”, including conversion tracking. Google conversion tracking is a

placed on your computer for conversion tracking. These cookies have limited
validity, do not contain any personal data and thus cannot be used for

adverts and were forwarded to a page equipped with a conversion tracking tag.

personally identify users. Processing is carried out on the basis of art. 6
(1) lit. f GDPR due to our justified interest in targeted marketing and

data protection-compliant “Shariff” buttons to ensure that you retain control
over your data.No connection is made to the social network servers and no data

appears, allowing you to log on with the relevant provider using your data. It
is only after you actively login that a direct connection to the social
network is set up. By logging in, you give your permission for the transfer of
your data to the respective social media provider. At this time, information
such as your IP address and which websites you have visited is transmitted.

accounts, the information collected is also assigned to your corresponding
profiles. Therefore, you can only prevent this assignment by logging yourself
out before visiting our website and before activating the button for your
social media accounts. The social networks listed below are integrated with
