Cookies
These websites sometimes use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to accept cookies in certain cases or to generally reject them, and to automatically delete cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies that are necessary for carrying out electronic communication or for providing certain functions you have requested (e.g., the shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically flawless and optimized provision of its services. Any other cookies (e.g., cookies for analyzing your browsing behavior) are addressed separately in this privacy policy.

Google AdSense uses so-called "cookies," text files that are stored on your computer and enable analysis of website usage. Google AdSense also uses so-called web beacons (invisible graphics). These web beacons allow information such as visitor traffic on these pages to be evaluated.
The information generated by cookies and web beacons about your use of this website (including your IP address) and the delivery of advertising formats is transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA. This information may be shared by Google with its partners. However, Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google.

Google Analytics Remarketing
Our websites use the features of Google Analytics Remarketing in conjunction with the cross-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
This feature allows you to link advertising audiences created with Google Analytics Remarketing to the cross-device features of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. This way, interest-based, personalized advertising messages, tailored to you based on your previous usage and browsing behavior on one device (e.g., mobile phone), can also be displayed on another of your devices (e.g., tablet or PC).
If you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browsing history to your Google account for this purpose. This allows the same personalized advertising messages to be displayed on any device where you sign in with your Google account.
To support this function, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated user IDs, which are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create audiences for cross-device advertising.
You can permanently opt out of cross-device remarketing/targeting by disabling personalized advertising in your Google account; follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/ .
The aggregation of collected data in your Google account is based solely on your consent, which you can grant or withdraw at Google (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). For data collection processes that are not aggregated in your Google account (e.g., because you do not have a Google account or have objected to aggregation), the data collection is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest arises from the fact that the website operator has an interest in the anonymized analysis of website visitors for advertising purposes.
Further information and the data protection regulations can be found in Google's privacy policy at: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/ .
Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking
This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States ("Google").
We use conversion tracking as part of Google AdWords. When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is set. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. If you visit certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page.
Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. These cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of different AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. Customers see the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can personally identify users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can easily disable the Google conversion tracking cookie in your browser's user settings. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.
The storage of "conversion cookies" is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.
For more information about Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking, please see Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/ .

Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Google reCAPTCHA
We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on our websites. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
reCAPTCHA is used to verify whether data entry on our websites (e.g., in a contact form) is done by a human or an automated program. To do this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the website visitor's behavior based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various pieces of information (e.g., IP address, the website visitor's time spent on the website, or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
The reCAPTCHA analysis runs entirely in the background. Website visitors are not notified that an analysis is taking place.
Data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web services from abusive automated data scraping and spam.
Further information about Google reCAPTCHA and Google's privacy policy can be found at the following links: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/android.html .
Facebook Pixel
Our website may use the visitor action pixel from Facebook, Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook") for conversion tracking.
This allows the behavior of website visitors to be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This enables the effectiveness of Facebook ads to be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising campaigns to be optimized.
The data collected is anonymous for us as the operators of this website; we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook, so a connection to the respective user profile is possible, and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook Data Policy . This allows Facebook to display advertisements on Facebook pages as well as on websites outside of Facebook. We, as the website operators, have no influence over this use of data.
You can find further information on protecting your privacy in Facebook's data policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/ .
You can also deactivate the "Custom Audiences" remarketing feature in the ad settings at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen . You must be logged in to Facebook to do this.
If you do not have a Facebook account, you can deactivate Facebook's interest-based advertising on the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/ .
