If a user clicks on an ad we place on Facebook, the URL of our linked page is expanded by a parameter using “Facebook Pixel”. After redirection, this URL parameter is then entered into the user's browser by a cookie that our linked page sets itself. In addition, this cookie collects specific customer data such as the email address, which we collect on our website linked to the Facebook ad during processes such as purchasing, account logins or registrations (extended data matching). The cookie is then read and enables the data, including specific customer data, to be transmitted to Facebook.

We use "Facebook Pixel" with advanced data matching to make our Facebook advertisements (so-called Facebook Ads) more effective and to ensure that they correspond to the interests of users or have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products that determined based on the websites visited), which we transmit to Facebook (so-called “Custom Audiences”).

We also analyze the effectiveness of our advertisements by tracking whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on an advertisement (conversion). Compared to the standard version of "Facebook Pixel", the advanced data matching feature helps us better measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns by recording more attributed conversions.

All transmitted data is stored and processed by Facebook so that it can be assigned to the respective user profile and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with Facebook's data usage guidelines (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). The data may enable Facebook and its partners to place ads on and off Facebook.

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies to read information on the device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent to this in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with future effect by deactivating this service in the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

We have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our site visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

The information generated by Facebook is usually transferred to a Facebook server and stored there; In this context, there may also be a transfer to Meta Platforms Inc. servers in the USA.

11.2 Google Ads Conversion Tracking

This website uses the online advertising program “Google Ads” and, as part of Google Ads, conversion tracking from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”).

We use Google Ads to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites using advertising materials (so-called Google Adwords). We can use the data from the advertising campaigns to determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. 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 conversion tracking cookie 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 on 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 via the websites of Google Ads customers. The information collected 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, you will not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.

When using Google Ads, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC. come to the USA.

In order to address users whose data we have received as part of business or business-like relationships in an even more appropriate way, we use a customer matching function as part of Google Ads. For this purpose, we transmit one or more files with aggregated customer data (especially email addresses and telephone numbers) to Google electronically. Google does not receive access to clear data, but instead automatically encrypts the information in the customer files using a special algorithm during the transmission process. The encrypted information can then only be used by Google to assign it to existing Google accounts that those affected 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 to do so in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke this consent from us at any time with effect for the future. Further information about Google's data protection measures in relation to the customer match function can be found here: https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/6334160?hl=de&ref_topic=10550182
