YouTube

On our website we embed videos from "YouTube", a social media platform of Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as "Google"). The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is your given consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. When the display of the embedded YouTube videos is started by your consent, a server call is made, usually to a Google server in the United States. This server is informed of the page you have accessed, and the IP address of the visitor's browser is transmitted to Google and stored by Google.

In case of your consent, YouTube also uses cookies to collect information about user behaviour. According to YouTube, these cookies are used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve the user experience and prevent abuse. If you are signed in to Google, your information may also be associated with your account when you click on a video. If you do not want your data associated with your YouTube profile, you must sign out before activating the button. Google will store this information in the form of a user profile and use it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or improving the user experience on its websites. In particular, this analysis is used (including for users who are not logged in) to display relevant advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. To do so, please contact Google directly.

YouTube Images

We also embed videos and thumbnails (preview images) from the YouTube platform on our website.

Google reCAPTCHA

We use "Google reCAPTCHA" (hereinafter "reCAPTCHA") on our website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google"). The purpose of reCAPTCHA is to verify whether data entry on our website (e.g. in a contact form) is made by a human or by an automated program. For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyses the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information, e.g.

IP address
length of time the website visitor spends on the website
mouse movements made by the user

The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google. The reCAPTCHA analyses run completely in the background. Website visitors are not informed that an analysis is taking place. The data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in protecting our website from abusive automated spying and from unwanted automated mailings (spam). We do not store any personal data from the use of reCAPTCHA. In general, personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies.

Google Tag Manager

This website uses the Google Tag Manager of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google"). This service allows website tags to be managed through an interface. The Google Tag Manager only implements tags. This means that no cookies are used and only the user's IP address is transmitted to Google to establish a connection.

The Google Tag Manager triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. However, the Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If a deactivation has been made on domain or cookie level, it will remain for all tracking tags as long as they are implemented with the Google Tag Manager.

We use the Google Tag Manager based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and only as long as the tag manager is necessary for tag management.

Double Click (Google Marketing Platform)

This website uses DoubleClick of the Google Marketing Platform, a service of Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google").

DoubleClick uses cookies to serve ads that are relevant to you. This involves assigning a pseudonymous identification number (ID) to your browser or device to help us verify which ads have been displayed on your browser and which ads have been viewed. This can improve campaign performance or, for example, prevent you from seeing the same ad more than once. Google may also use cookie IDs to track conversions related to ad requests. For example, when a user sees a campaign manager ad and later visits the advertiser's website using the same browser and makes a purchase. According to Google, the cookies do not contain any personal information. If you have given us your consent, the data will be processed in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Due to the technology used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge: Through the integration of DoubleClick, Google receives the information that you have called up the corresponding part of our website or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, it is possible that the provider will find out and save your IP address.

Google Ads (+ Conversion Tracking)

We use "Google Ads" on our website, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as "Google"). Google Ads is used by us for marketing and optimisation purposes, in particular to display ads that are relevant and interesting to you. If you have given us your consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, we can use Google Ads to draw attention to our attractive offers by using advertising material on external websites. This enables us to determine how successful individual advertising measures are.

These advertising media is delivered by Google via so-called "AdServers". We use AdServer cookies for this purpose, through which certain parameters for measuring success, such as the display of the ads or clicks by users, can be measured.

If you reach our website via a Google ad, Google Ads will store a cookie on your PC. These cookies usually expire after 30 days. They are not intended to identify you personally. The following information is usually stored as analysis values for this cookie: Unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions), opt-out information (marking that the user no longer wishes to be contacted). These cookies enable Google to recognize your web browser. If a user visits certain pages of an ad client's website and the cookie stored on their computer has not expired, Google and the client will be able to tell that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to that page. A different cookie is associated with each ad client. As a result, cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of ad clients. We ourselves do not collect and process any personal data in the advertising measures mentioned above. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google. By means of these evaluations we can recognize which of the advertising measures used are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of the advertising material, in particular we cannot identify the users on the basis of this information.

Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of Google Ads. To the best of our knowledge, Google receives the information that you have called up the relevant part of our website or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you have a user account with Google and are registered, Google can assign the visit to your user account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, there is a possibility that Google will find out and save your IP address.
