Cookies

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. They make our offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure.

The storage of cookies is based on Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR, as the website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If cookies are used for analytical or marketing purposes, this will only occur with your consent via the Complianz Cookie Consent Tool.

Server Log Files

The provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. This includes: browser type and version, operating system used, referrer URL, host name of the accessing computer, time of the server request, and IP address. These data are not combined with other data sources.

4. Analytics Tools and Advertising

Google Tag Manager

This website uses Google Tag Manager. The Tag Manager allows the management of website tags via an interface. The tool itself works without cookies and does not collect personal data. It only triggers other tags that may collect data. If deactivation has been performed on a domain or cookie level, it remains in effect for all tracking tags implemented through Google Tag Manager.

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics, provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses ‘cookies’, which are text files stored on your computer that allow an analysis of your website usage. 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.

The storage of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR (consent). We have activated IP anonymization, meaning your IP address is shortened by Google within the EU or other contracting states of the EEA before transmission to the USA.

Google Ads and Conversion Tracking

This website uses Google Ads and Google Conversion Tracking. If you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. Google and we can recognize that someone clicked on an ad and was redirected to a conversion-tracking page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie, meaning cookies cannot be tracked across Ads customers.

5. Integration of Third-Party Services and Content

YouTube

Our website uses plugins from the YouTube service operated by Google. Provider: YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account before visiting our website.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy in the future so that it always complies with current legal requirements or to reflect changes to our services. The updated privacy policy will apply to your next visit.
