1.1 Cookies
This Website uses so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small text files that are stored in the memory of your terminal via your browser. Cookies cannot run programs or transmit viruses to your computer. They serve to make the Internet offer more user-friendly and effective overall.

In view of the importance of data privacy, and our obligations of transparency, we provide information below about cookies, how we use them on our website and what options you have if, despite the benefits they bring, you prefer to disable them. We will assume you agree to accept the cookies that we use on our website if you do not disable or opt out of them as described below.

1.1.1 Terminology
When trying to understand cookies, and how to control them, it can help to know some terminology:

• Cookies installed on your device by the organization running the website you are visiting are known as “first party” cookies.
• Cookies installed on your device via the website you are visiting by another organization are termed “third party” cookies. An example is a cookie set by a specialist website analytics company that provides the website owner with data on the numbers of people visiting its website.
• So-called “persistent cookies” remain on your device even after you close your internet browser. They are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie. For example, where a "persistent cookie" is used on a website to remember your login details, you will not need to enter those details each time you visit that website.
• Session cookies, by contrast, are temporary and are typically used to enable the website to operate, e.g. by permitting a user to move from page to page without having to log in again. Once you close your browser, all session cookies are deleted.
• "Flash cookies" are installed from websites that contain media (e.g. video clips). This requires specific software. This allows content to be downloaded and information to be stored faster, e.g. that the content has been accessed from your device.

1.1.2 Cookies we use
To enhance user experience, this website uses ‘persistent’ and ‘session’ cookies for the purposes described below. These cookies are generally ‘first party’ cookies, but may also be ‘third party’ cookies.

(1) Website functionality
Cookies that are essential for our website to function technically or which provide a service or option that you have requested. For example, a cookie that “remembers” your authentication details so you can remain logged into secure internet banking facilities, or a cookie that remembers the country or language you have selected.

(2) Website performance analysis
Cookies that help us improve our website by providing us with aggregate statistics on how many users visit it, which parts of the site are viewed the most, and the city or regional location of those users. These may be installed by a third party analytics provider under a contract with us.

(3) Tracking and Targeting Cookies
In order to be able to provide you with the most relevant information about our products and services, we use cookies to be aware of which content you have viewed on our website. We may also use this information for the purposes of our advertising campaigns on third party websites. In that case, we may also receive information about the websites of our marketing partners on which you saw our advertisements. Similarly, third parties may display their advertisements on our website and they may become aware that you have visited our website.

1.1.3 How to control cookies – Opt Out
To prevent the use of cookies by your Internet browser, you can deactivate the use of cookies via the settings of your Internet browser. You can use the help functions of your internet browser to learn how to deactivate and/or delete cookies in your browser. Please note that the deactivation/deletion of cookies may result in certain functions of our website no longer functioning as expected. In addition, the deactivation/deletion of cookies only affects the Internet browser used for this purpose. For other Internet browsers, the deactivation/deletion of cookies must therefore be repeated accordingly.

We store this data until the end of the term of a respective cookie or until you delete the cookies.

Further processing of personal data by means of cookies can be found in the relevant sections of this information.

1.2.1 Google Analytics
(1) This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. "("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with further services associated with website and Internet use.

(2) The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

(3) You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de .

Data Protection: http://www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/learn/privacy.html, Privacy Policy: http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy

1.2.2 Google Analytics Remarketing
(1) Our websites use the functions of Google Analytics Remarketing in conjunction with the cross- device functions of Google AdWords (see sections 1.2.4). The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

(2) This function makes it possible to link the advertising target groups created with Google Ana- lytics Remarketing with the cross-device functions of Google AdWords. In this way, interest- related, personalized advertising messages that have been adapted to you depending on your previous usage and surfing behavior on a terminal device (e.g. mobile phone) can also be dis- played on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

(3) If you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browsing history to your Google Account for this purpose. This way, the same personalized advertising messages can be delivered to every device you sign in to with your Google Account. To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google authenticated user IDs that are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create target groups for cross-device advertising.

You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by disabling personalized advertising in your Google Account by following this link: https://www.google.com/set- tings/ads/onweb/.

(4) The summary of the data collected in your Google Account is exclusively based on your con- sent, which you can submit or withdraw to Google. For data collection operations that are not aggregated in your Google Account (e.g. because you do not have a Google Account or have opposed the aggregation), the collection of data is based on our legitimate interest to analyize the website visitors for advertising purposes.

For further information and Google's privacy policy follow: https://www.google.com/poli- cies/technologies/ads/.

(5) This website uses the "demographic features" function of Google Analytics. This allows re- ports to be created that contain information on the age, gender and interests of site visitors. This data comes from interest-related advertising by Google and from visitor data from third- party providers. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can disable this feature at any time from the display settings in your Google Account or opt-out of the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in section 1.2.1. (3).

(6) For further information on how Google Analytics handles user data and Google's privacy policy follow https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

 

1.2.3 Google Adwords
(1) Our website uses the Google Adwords service. Google AdWords is an online advertising program from Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). We use the remarketing function within the Google AdWords service. The remar3keting function enables us to present advertisements based on their interests to users of our website on other websites within the Google display network (on Google itself, so-called "Google ads" or on other websites). For this purpose, the interaction of users on our website is analyzed, e.g. which offers the user was interested in, in order to be able to display targeted advertising to users even after visiting our website on other pages. To do this, Google stores a number in the browsers of users who visit certain Google services or websites on the Google Display Network. This number, known as a "cookie", is used to record the visits of these users. This number is used to uniquely identify a web browser on a particular computer and not to identify a person.

(2) You can disable the use of cookies by Google by following the link below and downloading and installing the plug-in provided there: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin . For more information about Google Re-marketing and Google's privacy policy, please visit: http://www.google.com/privacy/ads/ .

(3) Furthermore, we use the so-called Conversion Tracking when using the Google AdWords service. When you click on an advertisement served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is placed on your computer or device. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days, and will only be used for personal identification. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking.

(4) You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. In addition, you can disable interest-based ads on Google and interest-based Google ads on the web (within the Google display network) in your browser by clicking the "Off" button at http://www.google.de/settings/ads or by disabling them at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/. For more information about your choices and privacy on Google, please visit https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/?fg=1 .

(5) We process your personal data based on our legitimate interest in playing off product recommendations and carrying out marketing measures. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

1.2.4 Adobe Analytics and Adobe Dynamic Tag Management
(1) We use the web analysis service Adobe Analytics. Adobe Analytics is a tool offered by Adobe Systems Incorporated, 345 Park Avenue San Jose, CA 95110-2704 USA. We use this tool to analyze and regularly improve the use of our website.

(2) We use Adobe Analytics with the setting "Before Geo-Lookup: Replace visitor's last IP octet with 0" and "Obfuscate IP-Removed", which shortens your IP address by the last octet and replaces it with a generic IP address that can no longer be assigned. A personal relationship can thus be ruled out.

(3) Adobe's Dynamic Tag Management enables us as a website provider to flexibly integrate and easily manage services (e.g. Adobe marketing services, Adobe Analytics) to improve interaction with leads. A tag is a web page code element in the JavaScript programming language. This must be embedded on any html page for use, so that the code element can be activated when a web page is opened. Adobe Dynamic Tag Management controls tag embedding in a central location and allows to control which services are included in which location, as well as collecting data or activating services.

(4) We process your personal data based on our legitimate interest to improve our website and make it more interesting for you as a user.

(5) Cookies are stored on your computer for this evaluation. The information collected in this way is stored on servers, also in the USA. If you prevent the storage of cookies, we point out that you may not be able to use this website in its entirety. You can prevent cookies from being saved by setting your browser or by clicking on the "Logout" button at http://www.adobe.com/de/privacy/opt-out.html . Adobe has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

 

1.2.5 Adobe Target
(1) To provide a demand-oriented website design we collect and process with the help of analysis cookies usage data about your user behavior on our website. The collection of your usage data and the creation of a user profile are done pseudonymously by using a cookie ID.

(2) For this reason we use the Adobe Target service of Adobe Systems Software, Ireland Ltd, 4-6 Riverwalk, Citywest Business Park, Dublin 24, Ireland ("Adobe") to collect your usage data and create your usage profiles.

(3) Adobe Target works on the basis of A/B tests. This means that the user of our website will see a different version of the website (e.g. with different design and content) than the original version of the website. The comparison of both variants gives us information about the presen- tation preferred by the users of our website. When using Adobe Test & Target, only infor- mation about you is processed that does not allow you to be identified. IP anonymization is also enabled, so your IP address is shortened before further processing by Adobe Test & Target is executed. We do not merge the resulting user profiles with your name or other information that reveals your identity, such as your e-mail address.

(4) The usage data is stored by the service used for a maximum period of 24 months from time of collection.

Information about Adobe Test & Target's cookies and your opt-out option can be found at the following link: http://www.adobe.com/de/privacy/opt-out.html.

California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ; Facebook Ireland Ltd 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, D2 Dublin; Ireland (“Facebook”). These allow the behavior of site visitors to be tracked after they click on a Facebook ad to reach the provider’s website. This allows an analysis of the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements for statistical and market research purposes and their future optimization. The data collected is anonymous to us as operators of this website and we cannot use it to draw any conclusions about our users’ identities. However, the data are stored and processed by Facebook, which may make a connection to your Face- book profile and which may use the data for its own advertising purposes, as stipulated in the Facebook privacy policy. This will allow Facebook to display ads both on Facebook and on third-party sites. We have no control over how this data is used.

Some of your data will also be processed in countries outside the European Union ("EU") or the European Economic Area ("EEA"), where a generally lower level of data protection may prevail. In these cases, we ensure, for example through standard contractual clauses with our contractual partners that an adequate level of data protection is guaranteed for your data.

 

IV. Deletion of your data
The data processed by us will be deleted or its processing restricted unless expressly stated in this document, the data stored by us will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for its intended purpose and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory storage obligations. If the data is not deleted because it is necessary for other and legally permissible purposes, its processing is restricted. This means that the data is blocked and not processed for other purposes.
