3. Cookies

 

I use cookies on my site. These are small files that your browser creates automatically and that are stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit my site. Cookies do not cause any damage to your device and do not contain viruses, Trojans or other malware. The cookie stores information that arises in connection with the specific end device used. However, this does not mean that I gain direct knowledge of your identity. On the one hand, the use of cookies serves to make the use of my offer more pleasant for you. I use so-called session cookies to recognize that you have already visited individual pages on my website. These will be automatically deleted after you leave my site. In addition, to optimize user-friendliness, we also use temporary cookies that are stored on your device for a specific period of time. If you visit my site again to use my services, it will automatically be recognized that you have already been with me and what entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again. On the other hand, I use cookies to statistically record the use of my website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing my offer for you (see section 5). These cookies enable me to automatically recognize that you have already visited my site when you visit my site again. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period of time. The data processed by cookies is necessary for the purposes mentioned to protect our legitimate interests and those of third parties in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter f of the GDPR. Most browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or that a message always appears before a new cookie is created. However, completely deactivating cookies may mean that you cannot use all of the functions of my website.

  

 

4. Analysis tools

a) Tracking tools

 

The tracking measures listed below and used by me are carried out on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter f of the GDPR. With the tracking measures used, I want to ensure a needs-based design and the ongoing optimization of my website. On the other hand, I use tracking measures to statistically record the use of my website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing my offer for you. These interests are to be viewed as legitimate within the meaning of the aforementioned provision. The respective data processing purposes and data categories can be found in the corresponding tracking tools.

 

i) Google Analytics

 

For the purpose of needs-based design and continuous optimization of our pages, I use Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Inc. (https://www.google.de/ intl/de/about/) (1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter “Google”). In this context, pseudonymized usage profiles are created and cookies (see section 4) are used. The information generated by cookies about your use of this website such as

 

• Browser type/version,

 

• operating system used,

 

• Referrer URL (the previously visited page),

 

• Host name of the accessing computer (IP address),

 

• time of server request,

 

are transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to provide other services related to website and internet use for the purposes of market research and the needs-based design of these websites. This information may also be transferred to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of you. Under no circumstances will your IP address be merged with other Google data. The IP addresses are anonymized so that assignment is not possible (IP masking). You can prevent the installation of cookies by setting the browser software accordingly; However, I would like to point out that in this case not all functions of this website may be able to be used to their full extent. You can also prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing a browser add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de). As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent data collection by Google Analytics by clicking on this link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent future collection of your data when you visit this website. The opt-out cookie only applies in this browser and only for my website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you will have to set the opt-out cookie again. Further information on data protection in connection with Google Analytics can be found in the Google Analytics help.https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de).

 

ii) Google Adwords Conversion Tracking

In order to statistically record the use of my website and for the purpose of optimizing my website, I also use Google Conversion Tracking. Google Adwords sets a cookie (see section 4) on your computer if you came to our website via a Google ad. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages on the Adwords customer's website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Every Adwords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked via the websites of Adwords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Adwords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Adwords customers find out the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, you will not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users. If you do not want to take part in the tracking process, you can also refuse the necessary setting of a cookie - for example by using a browser setting that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies. You can also deactivate cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com”. You can find Google’s privacy policy on conversion tracking here (https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html).
