3. use of the Scalable Central Measuring Method (SZM)

(1) Our website uses the measurement procedure ("SZMnG") of INFOnline GmbH (https://www.infonline.de) to determine statistical parameters about the use of our offerings. The aim of the range measurement is to statistically determine the intensity of use, the number of users of a website and the surfing behavior - on the basis of a uniform standard procedure - and thus to obtain values that are comparable across the market.

For web offers that are members of the Informationsgemeinschaft zur Feststellung der Verbreitung von Werbeträgern e. V. (IVW - https://www.ivw.eu) or participate in the studies of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Online-Forschung e. V. (AGOF - https://www.agof.de), the usage statistics are regularly published by the AGOF and the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Media-Analyse e. V. (agma - https://www.agma-mmc.de), as well as the IVW and can be viewed on the respective websites.

1. data processing

INFOnline GmbH collects and processes data in accordance with German data protection law. Technical and organizational measures ensure that individual users cannot be identified at any time. Data that may have a reference to a specific, identifiable person will be anonymized as soon as possible.

1.1 Anonymization of the IP address

On the Internet, every device requires a unique address, the so-called IP address, in order to transmit data. The storage of the IP address, at least for a short period of time, is technically necessary due to the way the Internet works. The IP addresses are shortened before any processing and are only processed anonymously. Untruncated IP addresses are not stored or processed.

1.2 Geolocation up to the level of federal states/regions

A so-called geolocation, i.e. the assignment of a website call to the location of the call, is carried out exclusively on the basis of the anonymized IP address and only up to the geographical level of the federal states/regions. Under no circumstances can conclusions be drawn about the specific place of residence of a user from the geographical information obtained in this way.

1.3 Identification number of the device

The range measurement alternatively uses either a cookie with the identification "ioam.de", a "Local Storage Object" or an anonymous signature, which is created from various automatically transmitted information of your browser, for the recognition of computer systems. The validity of the cookie is limited to a maximum of 1 year.

1.4 Login ID

In order to measure distributed usage (use of a service from different devices), the user ID at login, if available, may be transmitted to INFOnline as an anonymized checksum.

2. deletion

The stored usage data will be deleted after 7 months at the latest.

3. objection

If you do not wish to participate in the measurement, you can object under the following link: https: //optout.ioam.de.

Further information on data protection in the measurement procedure can be found on the website of INFOnline GmbH ( https://www.infonline.de ), which operates the measurement procedure, the data protection website of AGOF ( https://www.agof.de/datenschutz ) and the data protection website of IVW ( https://www.ivw.eu ) .

(2) We use the SZM procedure to analyze and regularly improve the use of our website. The statistics obtained enable us to improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. The legal basis for the use of the SZM procedure is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO.

§ 9 Social media

1. use of social media plug-ins

We currently do not use any social media plug-ins.

2 Integration of Google Maps

(1) On this website we use the offer of Google Maps. This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and enables you to conveniently use the map function.

(2) By visiting the website, Google receives the information that you have called up the corresponding sub-page of our website. In addition, the data mentioned under § 3 of this declaration are transmitted. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether there is no user account. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want the assignment with your profile at Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact Google to exercise this right.

(3) For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing by the plug-in provider, please refer to the provider's privacy policy. There you will also find further information on your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy . Google also processes your personal data in the USA and has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework .

§ 10 Online advertising

1. use of Google Adwords Conversion

(1) We use the offer of Google Adwords to draw attention to our attractive offers with the help of advertising media (so-called Google Adwords) on external websites. In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. In this way, we pursue the interest of displaying advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you and achieving a fair calculation of advertising costs.

(2) These 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 display of the ads or clicks by users, can be measured. If you access our website via a Google ad, Google Adwords will store a cookie on your PC. These cookies usually lose their validity 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 (marking that the user no longer wishes to be addressed) are usually stored as analysis values.

(3) These cookies enable Google to recognize your internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of the website of an Adwords customer and the cookie stored on his computer has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. A different cookie is assigned to each Adwords customer. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of Adwords customers. We ourselves do not collect and process any personal data in the aforementioned advertising measures. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google. Based on these evaluations, we can see which of the advertising measures used are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of the advertising media, in particular we cannot identify the users based on this information.

(4) Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge: Through the integration of AdWords Conversion, Google receives the information that you have called up the relevant part of our website or clicked on an ad from us. 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 may obtain and store your IP address.

(5) You can prevent participation in this tracking process in various ways: a) by making the appropriate settings in your browser software, in particular the suppression of third-party cookies will result in you not receiving ads from third-party providers; b) by disabling cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain " www.googleadservices.com", https://adssettings.google.de/authenticated , with this setting being deleted when you delete your cookies; c) by disabling the interest-based ads of the providers that are part of the self-regulatory campaign "About Ads" via the link https://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2〈=EN , with this setting being deleted when you delete your cookies; d) by permanently disabling them in your Firefox, Internetexplorer or Google Chrome browsers at the link https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin . We would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this offer in full.

(6) The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. Further information on data protection at Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy and https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html .

Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework .

2 Remarketing

In addition to Adwords Conversion, we use the Google Remarketing application, which is a method we use to address you again. Through this application, our advertisements can be displayed to you during your further internet use after visiting our website. This is done by means of cookies stored in your browser, through which your usage behavior is recorded and evaluated by Google when visiting various websites. In this way, Google can determine your previous visit to our website. According to its own statements, Google does not combine the data collected in the course of remarketing with your personal data, which may be stored by Google. In particular, according to Google, pseudonymization is used in remarketing.

3 DoubleClick by Google

(1) This website continues to use the online marketing tool DoubleClick by Google. DoubleClick uses cookies to serve ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads more than once. Google uses a cookie ID to record which ads are displayed in which browser and can thus prevent them from being displayed more than once. In addition, DoubleClick can use cookie IDs to record so-called conversions that are related to ad requests. This is the case, for example, when a user sees a DoubleClick ad and later calls up the advertiser's website with the same browser and buys something there. According to Google, DoubleClick cookies do not contain any personal information.

(2) Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google's server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge: Through the integration of DoubleClick, Google receives the information that you have called up the corresponding part of our website or clicked on an ad of ours. 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 may obtain and store your IP address.

(3) You can prevent participation in this tracking process in various ways: a) by making appropriate settings in your browser software, in particular the suppression of third-party cookies will result in you not receiving ads from third-party providers; b) by disabling cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain " www.googleadservices.com", https://adssettings.google.de/authenticated , with this setting being deleted when you delete your cookies; c) by disabling the interest-based ads of the providers that are part of the self-regulatory campaign "About Ads" via the link https://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2〈=EN , with this setting being deleted when you delete your cookies; d) by permanently disabling them in your Firefox, Internetexplorer or Google Chrome browsers at the link https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin . We would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this offer in full.

(4) The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. For more information on DoubleClick by Google, please visit https://www.google.de/doubleclick and https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de , and on data protection at Google in general: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy .

Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework .

4 Facebook Custom Audiences

(1) Furthermore, the website uses the remarketing function "Custom Audiences" of Facebook Inc ("Facebook"). This allows users of the website to be shown interest-based advertisements ("Facebook Ads") when visiting the Facebook social network or other websites that also use the procedure. We thereby pursue the interest of displaying advertisements that are of interest to you in order to make our website more interesting for you.

(2) Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Facebook server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Facebook through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge: Through the integration of Facebook Custom Audiences, Facebook receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding web page of our website, or clicked on an ad from us. If you are registered with a Facebook service, Facebook can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Facebook or have not logged in, there is a possibility that the provider learns and stores your IP address and other identifying features.
