14) Online marketing

14.1  Facebook pixels for the creation of custom audiences

Within our online offer the so-called "Facebook pixel" of the social network Facebook is used, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Facebook").
If a user clicks on an advertisement placed by us, which is played on Facebook, an addition is added to the URL of our linked page by Facebook pixel. To the extent that our pixel-based site allows data to be shared with Facebook, this URL parameter is written to the user's browser via a cookie that our linked site sets itself. This cookie is then read by Facebook Pixel and enables the data to be forwarded to Facebook.
With the help of the Facebook pixel, Facebook is on the one hand able to determine the visitors of our online offer as a target group for the presentation of ads (so-called "Facebook ads"). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel in order to display the Facebook Ads placed by us only to those Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our online offer or who exhibit certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products determined on the basis of the websites visited), which we transmit to Facebook (so-called "custom audiences"). With the help of the Facebook pixel, we also want to ensure that our Facebook Ads correspond to the potential interest of users and do not appear annoying. This allows us to further evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook Ads for statistical and market research purposes by tracking whether users have been redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook Ad (so-called "conversion").
The data collected is anonymous to us, so we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that 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 Usage Guidelines (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). The data may enable Facebook and its partners to place advertisements on and outside of Facebook.
The data processing associated with the use of the Facebook Pixel is based on our predominantly legitimate interest in the evaluation, optimization and economic operation of our online offering and our advertising measures in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
The information generated by Facebook is generally transferred to a Facebook server and stored there, and may also be transferred to the servers of Facebook Inc. in the USA. Facebook Inc. with headquarters in the USA is certified for the us-European data protection agreement "Privacy Shield", which guarantees compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.
In order to object to the collection by the Facebook pixel and the use of your data for the display of Facebook ads in general, you can set an opt-out cookie by clicking on the link below, which deactivates Facebook pixel tracking:
Disable Facebook pixel
This opt-out cookie only works in this browser and only for this domain. If you delete your cookies in this browser, you will need to click the above link again.
Insofar as legally required, we have obtained your consent for the above processing of your data in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. In order to exercise your revocation, please follow the above-mentioned option to make an objection.

14.2  Google AdSense

This website uses Google AdSense, a web advertising service Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). Google AdSense uses so-called cookies, which are text files that are stored on your computer and which enable an analysis of your use of the website. In addition, Google AdSense also uses so-called "web beacons" (small invisible graphics) for the collection of information, through the use of which simple actions such as visitor traffic on the website can be recorded, collected and evaluated. The information generated by the cookie and/or web beacon (including your IP address) about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server and stored there. This may also result in a transfer to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.

Google uses the information thus obtained to evaluate your usage behaviour with regard to the AdSense ads. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google AdSense is not merged with other data from Google. The information collected by Google may be transferred to third parties if this is legally required and/or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.

The described processing of data is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 letter f DSGVO for the purpose of targeting the user in advertising by advertising third parties whose ads are displayed on this website on the basis of the evaluated user behavior. This processing also serves our financial interest in exploiting the economic potential of our website by inserting personalised third-party advertising content against payment.
