Use of Google Analytics

We use the web analysis service Google Analytics from Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google") on our website. If you are habitually resident in the European Economic Area or Switzerland, Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) is the controller responsible for your data. Google Ireland Limited is therefore the company affiliated with Google that is responsible for processing your data and compliance with applicable data protection laws.
The data processing serves the purpose of analyzing this website and its visitors as well as for marketing and advertising purposes. For this purpose, Google will use the information obtained on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to provide the website operator with other services related to website activity and internet usage. The following information may be collected, among others: IP address, date and time of the page visit, click path, information about the browser you use and the device you use, pages visited, referrer URL (website via which you accessed our website), location data, purchasing activities. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Google Analytics uses technologies such as cookies, web storage in the browser and tracking pixels, which enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated in this way about your use of the website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. IP anonymization is activated on this website. This means that your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to 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 has certified itself under the US-EU data protection agreement "Privacy Shield" and is thus committed to complying with European data protection guidelines.
Data processing, in particular the setting of cookies, is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR due to our overriding legitimate interest in the needs-based and targeted design of the website. You have the right to object to this processing of personal data concerning you based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation.

Plug ins

Using Google Tag Manager

We use the Google Tag Manager from Google LLC on our website (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). If you are habitually resident in the European Economic Area or Switzerland, Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) is the controller responsible for your data. Google Ireland Limited is therefore the company affiliated with Google that is responsible for processing your data and compliance with applicable data protection laws.
This application manages JavaScript tags and HTML tags that are used to implement tracking and analysis tools in particular. The data processing serves the purpose of needs-based design and optimization of our website.

Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found here (https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html).

Use of social plug-ins

We use social network plug-ins on our website. The integration of social plug-ins and the data processing that takes place in this way serves the purpose of optimizing the advertising for our products.
When social plug-ins are integrated, a link is established between your computer and the servers of the provider of the social network and the plug-in is displayed on the page by a message to your browser, provided you have expressly consented to this. Both your IP address and the information which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider's servers. This applies regardless of whether you are registered with the social network or logged in. Transmission also takes place for unregistered or unlogged users. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected can also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. When you use the plug-in functions (e.g. by pressing the button), this information is also assigned to your user account. You can prevent this assignment by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
The data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a of GDPR with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time without affecting the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.
The social networks listed below are integrated into our website using social plug-ins. You can find more information about the scope and purpose of the collection and use of data as well as your rights and options for protecting your privacy in the linked data protection notices of the providers.

Use of social plug-ins via "Shariff"

We use social network plug-ins on our website. To ensure that you retain control over your data, we use the privacy-safe "Shariff" buttons.
Without your express consent, no links will be established to the social network servers and consequently no data will be transmitted.
"Shariff" is a development by the specialists at the computer magazine c't. It enables more privacy on the Internet and replaces the usual "Share" buttons on social networks. You can find more information about the Shariff project here https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html (https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/Shariff-Social-Media-Buttons-mit-Datenschutz-2467514.html).
When you click on the buttons, a pop-up window appears in which you can log in to the respective provider using your data. Only after you have actively logged in will a direct connection to the social networks be established.
By logging in, you consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social media provider. This includes, among other things, your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this assignment by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons. The social networks named below are integrated using the "Shariff" function.

Use of social plug-ins using the "2-click solution"

We use social network plug-ins on our website using the "2-click solution". No connections are established to the social network servers without your express consent and consequently no data is transmitted.
With the standard integration of plug-ins, when you access the pages of our website that contain such a plug-in, a link is established between your computer and the servers of the provider of the social network, and the plug-in is displayed on the page by a message to your browser. Both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider's servers. This applies regardless of whether you are registered or logged in to the social network. Transmission also takes place for unregistered or unlogged users. If you are also logged in to the Facebook social network, this information is assigned to your personal user account. When you use the plug-in functions (e.g. by pressing the button), this information is also assigned to your user account, which you can only prevent by logging out before using the plug-in. So that you retain control over your data, we have decided to deactivate the corresponding button initially. You can recognize this by the grayed out button. Without your express consent - in the form of activating the button - no link will be established to the social network server and consequently no data will be transmitted.
Only when you activate the button, the button becomes active (highlighted in color) and a direct connection to the servers of the social network is established.
By activating, you give your consent to the transfer of your data to the respective provider of the social network. This will include, among other things, your IP address and information about which of our pages you have visited. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this assignment by logging out of your user accounts on the social networks before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
The social networks named below are integrated using the "2-click function". Further information on the scope and purpose of the collection and use of data as well as your rights and options for protecting your privacy can be found in the linked data protection notices of the providers.

Use of Facebook Connect

We use the single sign-on function Facebook Connect from Facebook Ireland Ltd. (Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin, D02, Ireland; "Facebook") on our website.
This function allows website visitors to log in to the website using their existing Facebook account. The data processing serves the purpose of verification during registration, personalization and interest-based advertising.
In order to offer the function on the website, a connection is established to the Facebook server. Cookies are used for this purpose. The following information, among others, may be collected and transmitted to Facebook: IP address, browser information, referrer URL (website via which you accessed our website), location data. This applies regardless of whether you are registered with the social network or logged in. Transmission also takes place for unregistered or unlogged users. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected can also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can prevent this assignment by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
Your data may be transferred to the USA. Facebook has certified itself under the US-EU data protection agreement "Privacy Shield" and is therefore committed to complying with European data protection guidelines.
When using the single sign-on function, the website visitor's Facebook profile is linked to a customer account for this website. We receive personal data from Facebook as specified in the login process. This may include the following information: name, address, public profile information (e.g. name, profile picture, age, gender), email address, friend lists, "likes"
