These cookies allow us to automatically recognise that you have visited the site before. They are deleted automatically after a defined time interval. The data processed by cookies is required for the above-listed purposes to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties pursuant to Art. 6 (1), sentence 1, lit. f, GDPR. Most browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can configure your browser to refuse the storage of cookies in your computer or to generate a message before a new cookie is created.

Analytical tools (tracking tools)

The tracking measures we use are listed below. They are carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1), sentence 1, lit. f, GDPR and are intended to ensure user-friendly design and continuous optimisation of our website. We also use tracking measures to collect statistical data concerning the use of our website and to evaluate this information for the purpose of optimising our offer for you.

Google Analytics

Our web pages use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies (see subsection on “Cookies”). The information generated by the cookie about the use of these web pages is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA, where it is stored. In the event IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other signatory states of the Treaty on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators, and providing other services to website operators relating to website activity and Internet usage. Google will not combine the IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics with any other data held by Google. Customers can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in their browser software; however, please be advised that not all functions of this website may be fully usable in this case. Customers can prevent Google from recording the data generated by the cookie and pertaining to their use of the website (including their IP address), or processing this data by downloading and installing the following browser plug-in available at this link: (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).

Google Analytics Remarketing

We use the functions of Google Analytics Remarketing of the provider Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

This is done for the purpose of presenting users with personalised and interest-related promotional content based on their surfing behaviour in our website when they visit web pages that are part of the Google promotional network. Google saves cookies in the user’s browser for this purpose. These allow for recognising users when they visit web pages that are part of the Google promotional network. Such cookies do not identify individuals, but exclusively recognise the web browser.

Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement (https://www.privacyshield.gov/list) to guarantee compliance with European data protection law. Further information about the Google privacy policy can be found at: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

You can deactivate Remarketing if you object to these functions:: https://www.google.com/settings/ads

Cookies remain active for no more than 18 months.

Google Adwords conversion tracking

We also use Google Conversion Tracking to statistically evaluate the use of our website and to optimise our website for you. Google Adwords uses cookies (see Section 4) in your browser if you reached our website through a Google ad. These cookies become invalid after 30 days and do not identify individuals. If a user opens certain websites of an Adwords customer and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the customer can tell that the user clicked on an advertisement and was forwarded to this page. Every Adwords customer is given different cookie codes, which means that cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of Adwords customers. The information collected with the help of conversion cookies is used to compile conversion statistics for Adwords customers who are using conversion tracking. Adwords customers learn how many users have clicked on their advertisements to access a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that personally identifies users. If you don’t want to participate in the tracking process, you can block the respective cookies – e.g. by choosing browser settings that generally deactivate automatic cookie placement. You can also deactivate cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to refuse cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com”. The Google privacy policy on conversion tracking can be found here: (https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html).

Facebook Pixel, custom audiences and Facebook conversion

Our websites use Facebook Pixel by the social media network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, or, if your residence is in the EU, by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. Facebook Pixel is a JavaScript code, which is integrated into our website for statistical purposes and market research. It enables Facebook to identify visitors of our online offers as target groups for the display of advertisements (so-called “Facebook Ads”). Facebook Pixel is therefore used to display our Facebook Ads exclusively to Facebook users who have shown an interest in our online offer or who meet certain characteristics (such as interest in certain topics or products as determined by their website use), which we transmit to Facebook (so-called “Custom audiences”). Moreover, Facebook Pixel tells us whether users were brought to our website after clicking on a Facebook promotional ad to verify the effectiveness of Facebook promotional offers (so-called conversion). Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement to guarantee compliance with European data protection law. (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active) Please refer to the Facebook privacy policy to learn more about the scope and purpose of data collection and the further processing and use of data by Facebook as well as your associated rights and setting options to protect your privacy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. Further details on the function of Facebook Pixel can be found in the Facebook help section under: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/651294705016616. You can opt out of data collection by Facebook Pixel and the use of your data for the display of Facebook ads. You can also set your promotional preferences to manage specific display types of promotional offers within Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads.

Social media plug-ins

Our website uses plug-ins of the social media networks listed below to promote our website in compliance with Art. 6 (1), sentence 1, lit. f, GDPR. The underlying advertising purpose is a legitimate interest in the definition of the GDPR. The responsibility for operation in compliance with data protection laws lies with the respective providers. The use of these plug-ins typically follows the so-called two-click method to ensure optimal protection of our website visitors.

Facebook

Facebook elements are integrated into our websites (so-called social media plug-ins) to further personalise the content for users. We use the “Like” or “Share” button for this purpose. Facebook is an enterprise of Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). Based on the integration of the plug-in, Facebook receives notice that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not currently logged into Facebook. Your browser directly transmits this information (including your IP address) to a Facebook server in the USA, where it is stored. If you are logged into Facebook, the visit may be directly linked your Facebook account. If you interact with the plug-ins, e.g. by clicking the “Like” or “Share” button, the corresponding information will also be transmitted to a Facebook server and stored. The information will also be published on Facebook and shown to your Facebook friends. Facebook may use this information for the purpose of promotion, market research and user-optimised design of Facebook pages. For this purpose, Facebook generates usage, interest and relationship profiles, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website in terms of advertisements shown to you by Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities in our website, and to offer additional services associated with the use of Facebook. If you don’t want Facebook to link the data collected during your visit to our website to your Facebook account, you must log out of your Facebook account prior to visiting our website. Please note that we as website operators do not have any knowledge about the content of the transmitted data or its use by Facebook. The Facebook privacy policy includes further information about the purpose and scope of data collection as well as the further processing and use of data by Facebook and your corresponding rights and options for privacy settings (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/).

Instagram

Our web pages also use social plug-ins (“Plug-ins”) of Instagram, which is operated by Instagram LLC, 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA (“Instagram”). The Instagram plug-in is recognisable by the “Instagram button,” e.g. in the form of an Instagram camera. When you access a page of our website that contains such a plug-in, your browser will establish a direct connection with the servers of Instagram. Instagram sends the content of the plug-in directly to your browser, which in turn integrates it into the website. Based on the integration of the plug-in, Instagram receives notice that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have an Instagram profile or are not currently logged into Instagram. Your browser directly transmits this information (including your IP address) to an Instagram server in the USA, where it is stored. If you are logged into Instagram, the visit may be directly linked to your Instagram account. If you interact with the plug-ins, e.g. by clicking the Instagram button, the corresponding information will also be directly transmitted to an Instagram server and stored. The information will also be published on your Instagram account and shown to your contacts. If you don’t want Instagram to link the data collected during your visit to our website to your Instagram account, you must log out of your Instagram account prior to visiting our website. Please note that we as website operators do not have any knowledge about the content of the transmitted data or their use by Instagram. Further information can be found in the Instagram privacy policy under https://help.instagram.com/155833707900388.

Online services/ online advertising

Our website uses online services and promotional instruments of the companies listed below on the basis of Art. 6 (1), sentence 1, lit. f, GDPR in the interest of optimally marketing our product offers.

PayPal

Transactions processed via the online payment service PayPal by the service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg, are subject to the following privacy policy of PayPal, which you can view at the following link: https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-prev?locale.x=de_DE

Credit information

If you choose the payment type “Invoice,” we may access credit data of specialised financial service providers (credit agencies) – and specifically your personal address and credit information determined with mathematical-statistical procedures – for contractual agreements based on Art. 6 (1), sentence 1, lit. f, GDPR. This interest is legitimate as defined by the regulation specified above. We use the following credit agencies, all of which are controllers in the sense of Art. 4, no. 7, GDPR, to receive the necessary data: Deltavista GmbH, Dessauerstraße 9, 80992 Munich, Creditreform Boniversum GmbH, Hellersbergstraße 11, 41460 Neuss, infoscore Consumer Data GmbH, Rheinstraße 99, 76532 Baden-Baden, Bürgel Wirtschaftsinformationen GmbH & Co. KG, Gasstraße 18, 22761 Hamburg, SCHUFA Holding AG, Kormoranweg 5, 65201 Wiesbaden, Regis24 GmbH, Zehdenicker Str. 21, 10119 Berlin. The data saved by the corresponding credit bureau is processed for compelling legitimate grounds of credit and creditor protection, which generally override your interests, rights and freedoms or serve for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. You may only object to the processing of your data saved by the corresponding service to the relevant credit agency for reasons arising special situations, which must be documented. If you can document such special reasons, the respective data will no longer be processed.

Geprüfter Webshop

Our website incorporates the “Geprüfter Webshop” seal. The seal and the associated promoted services are an offer of Tisko Consulting GmbH, Asbacher Straße 49, 53545 Linz am Rhein, Germany. When the seal is accessed, the Web server will automatically save a so-called server log file, which includes information such as your IP address, date and time of access, transferred data volume and requesting provider (access data) to document the access. This access data will not be evaluated and is automatically deleted after no more than 30 days following the end of your site visit. You also have the option of using the evaluation system of Geprüfter Webshop. You can evaluate the transaction and add comments after concluding the contract, i.e. after receiving your order. We will contact you to point out this option in the interest of a credible assessment of the purchasing transaction on the basis of Art. 6 (1), sentence 1, lit. f, GDPR. The personal data we collect for the use of the evaluation system will be deleted 3 months after the end of the evaluated product shipment.

Data security

We use the popular Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser when you visit our website. Usually this is 256-bit encryption.

If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we will instead rely on 128-bit v3 technology. The closed position of the key or padlock icon in the bottom status bar of your browser shows whether an individual page of our website is transmitted in encrypted format.

Otherwise, we use technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction, or access by unauthorised third parties. We continuously upgrade our security measures to keep up with technological developments.
