Google Analytics
Purpose/Information:
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Ltd. (“Google”).
Google Analytics uses a specific form of cookie, which is stored on your computer and enables an
analysis of your use of our website. The information about your use of this website generated by
the cookie is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

We would like to point out that Google Analytics has been expanded on this website to include the
code “gat._anonymizeIp();” to ensure the anonymized recording of IP addresses (so-called IP
masking). Due to the IP anonymization on this website, your IP address is shortened by Google
within the territory of the EU and the Treaty States of the European Economic Area. Only in
exceptional cases the full IP address is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened
there.
Google uses this information on our behalf to analyze your use of this website in order to compile
reports on website activities and provide additional services related to website and internet use.
The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with
other Google data.
We use Google Analytics to analyse and regularly improve the usage of our website. We can use
the statistics obtained to improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. In
addition, we gain information about the functionality of our site (for example to detect navigation
problems).
In the configuration of Google Analytics, we ensured that Google receives this data as a processor
and is therefore not allowed to use this data for its own purposes. The "Google Analytics
Advertising Features" configuration is independent from this and is described in the appropriate
section below, provided it is also used on this website.

Online Advertising
Google Ads (formerly Google Adwords)
Information/purpose:
Google Ads Conversion
We use the services of Google Ads to draw attention to our attractive offers with the help of
advertising materials (so-called Google Ads) on external websites. We can determine in relation to
the data of the advertising campaigns how successful the individual advertising measures are. We
are interested in showing you advertisements that are of interest to you, to make our website more
interesting for you and to achieve a fair calculation of advertising costs.
The advertising materials are delivered by Google via so-called “Ad Servers”. For this purpose, we
use ad server cookies, through which certain parameters for measuring success, such as the
insertion of ads or clicks by users, can be measured. If you access our website via a Google ad,
Google Ads stores a cookie on your device. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and are not
intended to identify you personally. For this cookie, the unique cookie ID, number of ad
impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions) and
opt-out information (mark that the user no longer wishes to be addressed) are usually stored as
analysis values.
These cookies enable Google to recognize your Internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of
an Ads customer's website and the cookie stored on their device has not expired, Google and the
customer can recognize that the user has clicked on the ad and has been redirected to this page.
Each Ads customer is assigned a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be traced via the
websites of Ads customers. We do not collect and process any personal data in the
aforementioned advertising measures. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google. On the
basis of these evaluations we can recognize which of the used advertising measures are

particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of advertising material; in
particular, we cannot identify users on the basis of this information.
Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically starts a direct connection to the
Google server. We have no influence on the extent and the further use of the data which are raised
by the use of this tool by Google and inform you therefore according to our knowledge: By the
integration of Ads conversion Google receives the information that you called the appropriate part
of our Internet appearance or clicked an announcement of us. If you are registered with a Google
service, Google may associate your visit with your account. Even if you are not registered with
Google or have not logged in, it is possible that the providers may obtain and store your IP
address.
Google Analytics Advertising Features
This website also uses the extended functions of Google Analytics (Google Anayltics Advertising
Features) in addition to the standard functions. The Google Analytics Advertising Features
implemented on this website include:
Google Display Network Impression Reporting
Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting
Integrated services that require Google Analytics to collect data for advertising purposes, including
the collection of data via advertising cookies and identifiers
We therefore use first-party cookies (e.g. Google Analytics cookies) and Google advertising
cookies and identifiers together in order to optimize our website.
You can prevent participation in this tracking process in various ways: a) by setting your browser
software accordingly; b) via your Google ad settings on
https://www.google.com/ads/preferences/?hl=en; c) by setting your cookie preferences accordingly
(click here). Please note that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this offer in
full.

If you have asserted the right to correction, deletion or the restriction of processing against us, we
are obliged to inform all the recipients to whom/which the personal data relating to you has been
disclosed of such correction or deletion of the data or restriction of its processing unless this
proves to be impossible or involves disproportionate expense.
You have the right to be informed by us of who these recipients are.
f. Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data which relates to you, and which you have provided
to us, in a structured, up-to-date and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to

in relation to which technical specifications are used.
h. Right to revoke the data protection declaration of consent
You have the right to revoke your data protection declaration of consent at any time. The
revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing that has been carried out
based on the consent prior to the revocation.
