Facebook-Plugin
On our pages plugins of the social media website facebook.com are integrated. You can recognize the Facebook plug-ins by the Facebook logo or the "Like-Button" ("Like") on our site. An overview of the Facebook plugins can be found here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/

The purpose and detail of the data evaluation and the further use and analysis of the data on Facebook and their associated privacy rights and control functions to protect your private data can be found in the privacy policy of Facebook: www.facebook.com/policy.php

Facebook Tracking Pixel
This service uses "Facebook Pixel". This is a service of the social network Facebook, the Facebook Inc., with which Facebook ads can be created.

For more information on the Facebook pixel and the privacy settings, please refer to the privacy policy and the terms of use of Facebook Inc.!

Unsubscribing is possible at any time via the messenger with the message "stop".

Push Notifications

You can use our services to subscribe to push notifications (messages sent to your mobile device even if you are not using our service). If you - e.g. when you first start the service - activate push notifications for the first time, a unique mobile device identification number (device ID) will be communicated to the service providing push functionality of your operating system provider (for Android "Google Cloud Messaging", for iOS "Apple Push Notification Service"). This service returns a so-called Identifier ("Push Notification Identifier"), which makes it impossible to draw any conclusions about the device ID and therefore you as the user. Communication with us is always done with this identifier. This ensures that the device ID is no longer used as part of the use of the service. You can turn these push notifications on and off in your browser settings or our service.


Pinterest Conversion Tracking
The service uses the Conversion Tracking technology of the social network Pinterest (Pinterest Europe Ltd., Palmerston House, 2nd Floor, Fenian Street, Dublin 2, Ireland), which allows website visitors who have already shown interest in the website and its content/offers and are Pinterest members to be shown relevant advertising and offers on Pinterest. To do this, a so-called Conversion Tracking Pixel from Pinterest is integrated on the pages, through which Pinterest is informed when the website is visited and which parts of the offering are of interest..

The collection of data for displaying interest-based advertising on Pinterest can be deactivated at any time in the account settings at Pinterest via https://www.pinterest.de/settings (under "Individual customization", deactivate the button "Use information from our partners to better tailor Pinterest's recommendations and ads to you") or via https://help.pinterest.com/de/article/personalization-and-data#info-ad (deactivate the checkbox under "Deactivate individual customization").


Pinterest Tag
Due to legitimate interests in analyzing, optimizing, and economically operating the online service, the so-called "Pinterest tag" of the company Pinterest Inc., 651 Brannan Street, San Francisco, CA, 94107, is used for these purposes within the online service.

Pinterest is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement, which guarantees compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt00000008VVzAAM).

With the help of the Pinterest tag, Pinterest can determine the visitors of the online service as a target group for displaying advertisements (so-called "Pinterest ads"). Accordingly, the Pinterest tag is used to display the placed Pinterest ads only to those Pinterest users who have also shown an interest in the online service or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products, which are determined based on the visited websites) that are transmitted to Pinterest (so-called "ActALike Audiences"). The Pinterest tag is used to ensure that the Pinterest ads correspond to the potential interests of the users and do not appear intrusive. Furthermore, the effectiveness of Pinterest advertising can be traced for statistical and market research purposes with the help of the Pinterest tag, by evaluating whether users were redirected to the website after clicking on a Pinterest advertisement (so-called "conversion").

The Pinterest tag is immediately integrated by Pinterest when the web pages are called up and can save a so-called cookie, i.e. a small file, on the device. When logging in to Pinterest subsequently or when visiting Pinterest while logged in, the visit to the online service is recorded in the Pinterest profile. The data collected in this process is anonymous and therefore does not provide any information about the identity of the users. 

The data processing by Pinterest takes place within the scope of Pinterest's data usage policy. Accordingly, general information on the display of Pinterest ads can be found in Pinterest's data usage policy: https://policy.pinterest.com/en/privacy-policy–

It is possible to object to the collection of the Pinterest tag and the use of data for displaying Pinterest ads. To set which types of ads are displayed within Pinterest, Pinterest has set up a page where changes can be made to the settings for usage-based advertising: https://www.pinterest.com/settings/. he settings are platform-independent, i.e. they are applied to all devices such as desktop computers or mobile devices.

The use of cookies for measuring reach and advertising purposes can also be objected to via the deactivation page of the Network Advertising Initiative  (optout.aboutads.info).


Cookies
Our service uses so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device using the browser. They do no harm. We use cookies to make our offer user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. They allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit. If you do not want this, you can set up your browser so that it informs you about the setting of cookies and you allow this only in individual cases. *Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our website.*


Google Analytics zur Webanalyse
This service uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc.  (www.google.de). 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 the website will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. In case IP-anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be truncated within the area of Member States of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
Only in exceptional cases the whole IP address will be first transfered to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. The IP-anonymisation is active on this website. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing them other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP-address that your Browser conveys within the scope of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google. 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 opt-out from being tracked by Google Analytics with effect for the future by downloading and installing Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Addon for your current web browser. http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de


Google Ads und Ads Remarketing
This service uses the marketing and remarketing services (short "Google marketing services") of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"), based on legitimate interests (i.e., interest in analyzing, optimizing, and economically operating the online offering).

Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thereby offers a guarantee to comply with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).

The Google marketing services allow ads to be displayed on the website in a more targeted manner to present users only with ads that potentially correspond to their interests. For example, if a user is shown ads for products that he or she has shown interest in on other websites, this is referred to as "remarketing". For these purposes, Google executes a code from Google and includes so-called (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also referred to as "web beacons") on the corresponding website when Google marketing services are active. These tags allow an individual cookie to be stored on the user's device (instead of cookies, comparable technologies may also be used). The cookies can be set by various domains, including google.com, doubleclick.net, invitemedia.com, admeld.com, googlesyndication.com or googleadservices.com. This file records which websites the user has visited, which content he or she is interested in, which offers he or she has clicked on, as well as technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, time of visit, and other information about the use of the online offering. The IP address of the user is also recorded, with the IP address being truncated within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area and only in exceptional cases being transmitted in full to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. The IP address is not merged with the user's data from other Google offerings. Google may also link the aforementioned information with information from other sources. If the user subsequently visits other websites, ads tailored to his or her interests may be displayed.

The user data is processed pseudonymously within the scope of the Google marketing services. This means that Google does not store and process, for example, the name or email address of the users, but processes the relevant data cookie-related within pseudonymous user profiles. This means that ads are not managed and displayed for a specifically identified person from Google's point of view, but for the cookie holder, regardless of who that cookie holder is. This does not apply if a user has expressly allowed Google to process the data without this pseudonymization. The information collected about users by Google marketing services is transmitted to Google and stored on Google's servers in the USA.

One of the Google marketing services used is the online advertising program "Google AdWords". In the case of Google AdWords, each AdWords customer receives a different "conversion cookie". Cookies, therefore, cannot be tracked across AdWords customers' websites. The information obtained using the cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. AdWords customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that personally identifies users..

Further information on data usage for marketing purposes by Google can be found on the overview page: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads, and Google's privacy policy can be accessed at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy .

Google Tag Manager
The service uses the Google Tag Manager provided by Google Inc., which allows for the integration and management of so-called website tags or markers on the website surface (through which services such as Google Analytics and other Google marketing services can be integrated into the website, as described above). Website tags themselves are small code elements that can be used to measure website traffic and user behavior, for example. The Tag Manager itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-less domain and does not process user data.
