5. Analytics and advertising

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service. It is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies". These are text files that are stored on your computer and that allow an analysis of the use of the website by you. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Google Analytics cookies are stored based on Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both its website and its advertising.

We have activated the IP anonymization feature on this website. Your IP address will be shortened by Google within the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area prior to transmission to the United States. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services regarding website activity and Internet usage for the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with any other data held by Google.

You can prevent these cookies being stored by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser. However, we wish to point out that doing so may mean you will not be able to enjoy the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the data generated by cookies about your use of the website (incl. your IP address) from being passed to Google, and the processing of these data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent your data from being collected on future visits to this site: Disable Google Analytics.

For more information about how Google Analytics handles user data, see Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

We have entered into an agreement with Google for the outsourcing of our data processing and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking

This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States ("Google").

As part of Google AdWords, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is set. Cookies are small text files that your internet browser stores on your computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification of the user. Should the user visit certain pages of the website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the website can tell that the user clicked on the ad and proceeded to that page.

Each Google AdWords advertiser has a different cookie. Thus, cookies cannot be tracked using the website of an AdWords advertiser. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for the AdWords advertisers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a conversion tracking tag page. However, advertisers do not obtain any information that can be used to personally identify users. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can opt-out of this by easily disabling the Google Conversion Tracking cookie by changing your browser settings. In doing so, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

Conversion cookies are stored based on Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both its website and its advertising.

For more information about Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking, see the Google Privacy Policy: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept or reject a cookie. Alternatively, your browser can be configured to automatically accept cookies under certain conditions or to always reject them, or to automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

10. Rights of the data subject

If your personal data is processed, you are a subject concerned within the scope of the General Data Protection Regulation and have the following rights against the responsible body:

10.1.  Right to information

10.2. Right to correction

You have the right to correct and/or complete your data by the responsible body if the processed personal data concerning you is incorrect or incomplete. The person responsible shall make the correction immediately.

10.3. Right to processing restriction

Considering the following conditions, you are entitled to request that the processing of personal data concerning you be restricted:

  • the processing is unlawful and you object to deleting the personal data and request that the use of the personal data be restricted instead;
  • the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you do need them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, or

If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, such data may only be processed - apart from being stored - with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims of another natural or legal person or on grounds of an important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

If the processing restriction has been restricted according to the above conditions, you shall be informed by the person responsible.

10.4. Right to have the data deleted

10.4.1.

You are entitled to request the data controller to delete the personal data concerning you immediately and they are obliged to delete this data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:
 

  • The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary for the purposes which it had been collected for or is no longer otherwise processed.
  • You revoke your consent which the processing was based on pursuant to Article 6 p. 1a or Article 9 para. 2a of the General Data Protection Regulation, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  • You object to the data processing pursuant to Article 21 p.1 of the General Data Protection Regulation and there are no priority legitimate grounds for processing, or you file an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 p. 2 of the General Data Protection Regulation.

  • to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information;
  • to perform a legal obligation required for processing pursuant to the law of the European Union or the member states which the controller is subject to or to perform a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority conferred on the controller;
  • for reasons of public interest within the field of public health pursuant to Article 9 p. 2h and i and Article 9 p3 General Data Protection Regulation;
  • for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89 p.1 of the General Data Protection Regulation, insofar as the right referred to in p.1 is likely to make it impossible or seriously impair the attainment of the objectives of such processing, or
  • to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
     

10.5. Right to information

If you have exercised your right to correction, deletion and restriction of processing towards the controller, the controller is obliged to inform all recipients who your personal data had been disclosed to about this correction or deletion of the data or restriction of processing, unless it proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

Your are entitled to be informed about such recipients by the person responsible.

10.6. Right to data portability

You are entitled to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to the person responsible in a structured, common and machine-readable format. Additionally, you are entitled to forward this data to another person responsible without obstruction by the person responsible to whom the personal data was provided, provided that
 

  • processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6 p.1a of the General Data Protection Regulation or Article 9 p.2a of the General Data Protection Regulation or on a contract pursuant to Article 6 p1b of the General Data Protection Regulation and
  • the processing is carried out using automated methods.
     

In exercising this right, you are also entitled to request that the personal data concerning you be transferred directly from one data controller to another, if technically feasible. This must not affect the freedoms and rights of other persons.

The right to data portability shall not apply to processing of personal data necessary for performing a public interest task or to exercising of official authority conferred on the controller.

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object to the processing of the personal data for the purpose of such advertising at any time; this also applies to profiling if it is associated with such direct marketing.

If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you shall no longer be processed for these purposes.

You are entitled to revoke your data protection declaration of consent at any time. The revocation of the declaration of consent shall not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent prior to revocation.

10.9. Automated decision in individual cases including profiling

You are entitled to not be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing, including profiling, which has legal effect on you or significantly affects you in a similar manner. It does not apply if the decision
 

  • is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the person responsible,
  • is admissible pursuant to the law of the European Union or of the member states which the person responsible is subject to and that law contains appropriate measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests, or
  • followed your express consent.


However, these decisions are not to be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Article 9 p.1 of the General Data Protection Regulation, unless Article 9 p.2a or g apply and appropriate measures had been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases mentioned in a. and c., the person responsible shall take appropriate measures to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, at least including the right to obtain the intervention of a person by the person responsible, to state their own position and to appeal against the decision.

10.10. Right of appeal with a regulatory authority

Regardless of any other administrative or legal remedy, you are entitled to appeal to a regulatory authority, in particular in the member state of your residence, place of work or where suspected infringement has taken place, if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you violates against the General Data Protection Regulation.

The supervisory authority which the complaint has been filed with shall inform the complainant of the status and results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Article 78 of the General Data Protection Regulation.

11. Disclosure of data to third parties

In order to provide our services and – in particular – ensure the functionality of our website, we use a provider. In this respect, the provider is also used as an external service provider to process your data. The provider has been carefully selected and engaged, is bound by our instructions and also controlled at regular intervals.

12. Legal basis of the data processing

Should we obtain the consent of the person subject to the processing of personal data, Art. 6 p.1a of the General Data Protection Regulation shall serve as the legal basis.

In the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract which the data subject is a party of, Article 6 p.1b of the General Data Protection Regulation shall serve as the legal basis. It also applies to processing operations necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.

Should processing of personal data be required to fulfil a legal obligation which our company is subject to, Article 6 p.1c of the General Data Protection Regulation shall serve as the legal basis.

In the case that the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require processing of the personal data, Article 6 p.1d of the General Data Protection Regulation shall serve as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Article 6 p.1f of the General Data Protection Regulation shall serve as the legal basis. The legitimate interest of our company lies within the scope of implementation of our business activities.

13. Storage duration of individual data

Personal data shall be stored for the duration of the respective legal storage period. After expiry of this period, the data will be routinely deleted, unless there is a need to initiate or fulfil a contract.
