III. Deletion of all cookies

You also have the option of generally deactivating cookies in your browser at any time. This prevents cookies from being stored on your device and means that you will be asked each time whether you agree to the setting of cookies.

However, we would like to point out that the general deactivation of cookies can lead to functional restrictions in connection with the use of our website.

IV. Types of cookies in detail

Depending on their purpose and function, we divide cookies into the following categories:

1.) Necessary cookies
2.) Performance cookies
3.) Functional cookies
4.) Marketing cookies

Below we will inform you in detail about the different types of cookies and which cookies are set and used - if necessary with your consent.

1. Necessary cookies

Necessary cookies ensure functions without which you cannot use our website as intended. These cookies are used exclusively by us and are therefore first party cookies. This means that all information stored in the cookies is fed back to our website. Necessary cookies are used, for example, to ensure that you, as a registered user, always remain logged in when accessing various sub-pages of our website and so do not have to re-enter your login details each time you access a new page. The use of necessary cookies on our website is possible and permitted without your consent. For this reason, necessary cookies cannot be deactivated or activated individually. However, you have the option to generally deactivate cookies in your browser at any time. However, this can lead to functional restrictions in connection with the use of our website. The legal basis for the use of the necessary cookies is Art. 6 Para. 1 b) GDPR (fulfillment of the contract) or Art. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR (balancing of interests, based on our legitimate and overriding interest in the technically smooth provision of our website and the information provided via it services offered).

The following necessary cookies are used on our website:

2. Performance & Marketing Cookies

Performance cookies collect aggregate information about how our website is used in order to improve its attractiveness, content and functionality. These cookies help us to determine whether, which, how often and for how long sub-pages of our website are visited and what content the users are particularly interested in. In particular, we record the number of accesses to a page, the number of sub-pages accessed, the time spent on our website, the order of the pages visited, which search terms led you to us, the country, the region and, if applicable, the city from which access takes place, as well as the proportion of mobile devices that access our websites. We also record movements, “clicks” and scrolling with the computer mouse in order to understand which areas of our website particularly interest users. These cookies do not store any information that allows the user to be identified. The information collected is aggregated and does not allow us to draw any direct conclusions about you personally. They serve the sole purpose of creating statistics in order to tailor the content of our website more specifically to the needs of our users, to improve the user experience and to optimize our offering.

The legal basis for the use of performance cookies is Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR in conjunction with your consent.

Data transfer to the USA  

The services required for these performance purposes may transmit data about your use of this website to the USA. There is currently no decision by the EU Commission that the USA offers an adequate level of data protection. There are also no other appropriate safeguards, enforceable rights and effective remedies to protect your data in the United States. This means there is a risk that your data will not be protected in the same way by the US service providers used as it is in the European Union. The activation of these services and the associated transfer of your data to the USA is therefore only based on your express consent in accordance with Art. 49 Para. 1 a) GDPR.

In addition, the Campaign Manager can use cookie IDs to record so-called conversions that are related to ad requests. This is the case, for example, if a user sees a Campaign Manager ad and later uses the same browser to go to the advertiser's website and buy something there. According to Google, Campaign Manager cookies do not contain any personal information.

Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google's server. We have no influence on the extent and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and will therefore inform you according to our level of knowledge: By integrating the Campaign Manager, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding part of our website or clicked on one of our ads. 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, there is a possibility that the provider will find out and store your IP address.

In addition, the Campaign Manager (DoubleClick Floodlight) cookies used enable us to understand whether you carry out certain actions on our website after you have viewed one of our display/video ads on Google or on another platform via the Campaign Manager clicked (conversion tracking). Campaign Manager uses this cookie to understand the content you have interacted with on our websites in order to later send you targeted advertising.

You can find further information about Campaign Manager at  https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/enterprise/
and about data protection at Google in general at:  https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy .
