Facebook Pixel 
We use Facebook Pixel on our website. Facebook Pixel is a service of the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Facebook"). We use Facebook Pixel to be able to display targeted advertising on Facebook. The audience is determined based on a user's interest in our online offering and by the interest of users in certain topics and products which we have communicated to Facebook to determine an audience ("Custom Audiences"). When a user clicks on an ad placed by us on Facebook, Facebook Pixel adds an extension to the URL of our linked page. We write this URL parameter into the user's browser using a cookie. The cookie set by us can then be read by Facebook Pixel and allows the data to be forwarded to Facebook to determine a target audience for our Facebook ads. With the help of the Facebook pixel we can also evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes. We can thus track whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad ("conversion"). The user data collected is anonymous for us and does not allow us to draw any conclusions about a user's identity. However, a direct connection to the Facebook servers is established. This enables Facebook to process and store your data so that it is possible to draw conclusions about your personal Facebook user profile. Data processing by Facebook is carried out in accordance with Facebook's data usage policy (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/).

The data processing associated with the use of the Facebook Pixel is only carried out with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by removing the checkmark for Facebook Pixel here.

 

14. Social media
We maintain publicly available profiles on social networks. The individual social networks we use can be found below.

Social networks such as Facebook etc. can generally analyze your user behavior extensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (such as Like buttons or banner ads). By visiting our social media presences, numerous data protection-relevant processing operations are triggered. Specifically:

If you are logged in to your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. Under certain circumstances, however, your personal data may also be recorded if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, data is collected, for example, via cookies which are stored on your device or by recording your IP address.

With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way you can be shown interest-based advertising within and outside of the particular social media presence. If you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.

Please also note that we cannot reconstruct all processing processes on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, therefore, additional processing operations may possibly be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. Details can be found in the terms of use and privacy policy of the respective social media portals.

Legal basis
Our social media presences are designed to provide an informative presence on the internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. In necessary cases, the legal basis is also Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on divergent legal bases to be specified by the operators of the social networks (for example, consent within the meaning of Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR).

Data controller and assertion of rights
If you visit any of our social media sites, together with the social media platform operator we are jointly responsible for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. As a matter of principle, you can assert your rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both to us and to the operator of the respective social media portal.

Please note that despite the shared responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence on the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our options are determined by the company policy of the respective provider.

Duration of storage
The data collected directly by us via the social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose of storage no longer exists, you ask us to delete it, you withdraw your consent to the storage or the purpose for the data storage no longer exists. Saved cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

We have no control over the duration of storage of your data stored by the social network operators for their own purposes. For details, please refer to the social network operators directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).

When you use an AddThis plugin, your internet browser establishes a direct connection to the AddThis servers and, if applicable, the selected social network. The data generated (e.g. time of use or browser language) is transferred to AddThis and processed there. If you send content from our website to social networks, a connection may be established between your visit to the website and your user profile on the relevant social network. The legal basis for the data processing associated with this is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

You can object to the data collection and storage at any time with effect for the future. To object to data collection and storage of your visitor data for the future you can get an opt-out cookie from AddThis at the following link.

When you visit a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly. For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to the fast.fonts.net servers. This tells fast.fonts.net that our website was accessed via your IP address. Web fonts are used in the interest of a uniform and attractive presentation of our online offerings. The legal basis for the data processing described here is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

16. Recipients and data transfer
We have bundled certain data processing operations within our company. These can be used centrally by individual areas of our company, e.g. for processing inquiries. External contractors and service providers (e.g. logistics companies or IT service providers) may also be used to ensure our responsibilities are met and to fulfill contracts. In addition, data may go to recipients to whom we are obligated or entitled to disclose data due to contractual or legal obligations or due to your consent.


17. Data transfer to third countries
Data is only transferred to third countries (countries outside the EU and the European Economic Area EEA) if this is necessary for the execution of a contract/order/business relationship, including the initiation thereof, or if it is permissible due to our legitimate interest or your consent, and only in compliance with the data protection requirements stipulated for this purpose.

Note on data transfer to the U.S.A.
Our website includes services provided by companies based in the U.S.A.

U.S. companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security agencies without you as the data subject being able to take sufficient legal action against this. It can therefore not be completely ruled out that U.S. agencies (e.g. intelligence services) process, analyze and permanently store your data located on U.S. servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.
