With the help of remarketing audiences, we also want to ensure that our ads correspond to the potential interest of users and are not annoying.

9.5 We only use Google Analytics with activated IP anonymization. This means that the IP address of users is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

If, for example, a user is shown ads for products that they have shown an interest in on other websites, this is referred to as "remarketing". For these purposes, when our and other websites on which Google marketing services are active are accessed, a code from Google is executed directly by Google and so-called (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as "web beacons") are integrated into the website. With their help, an individual cookie, i.e. a small file, is stored on the user's device (comparable technologies can also be used instead of cookies).

If the user subsequently visits other websites, they can be shown ads tailored to their interests.

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

11.5 We may also use the "Google Tag Manager" to integrate and manage Google analysis and marketing services on our website.

11.6 Further information on the use of data for marketing purposes by Google can be found on the overview page:https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/adsGoogle's privacy policy is available athttps://www.google.com/policies/privacyavailable.

18.1 With the following information, we inform you about the contents of our newsletter as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedure and your rights of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to receive it and to the procedures described.

18.2 Content of the newsletter: We only send newsletters, emails and other electronic notifications with advertising information (hereinafter "newsletter") with the consent of the recipient or with legal permission. If the contents of the newsletter are specifically described when registering for the newsletter, they are decisive for the user's consent. Our newsletters also contain information about our products, offers, promotions and our company.

18.3 Double opt-in and logging: Registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registering, you will receive an email asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no-one can register with other people's e-mail addresses. Subscriptions to the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process in accordance with legal requirements. This includes storing the time of registration and confirmation as well as the IP address. Changes to your data stored by the mailing service provider are also logged.

18.4 Dispatch service provider: The newsletter is sent by CleverReach GmbH & Co KG, Mühlenstr. 43, 26180 Rastede, hereinafter referred to as the "dispatch service provider". You can view the data protection provisions of the mailing service provider here:https://www.cleverreach.com/de/datenschutz/.

18.5 Furthermore, the mailing service provider may, according to its own information, use this data in pseudonymous form, i.e. without assignment to a user, to optimize or improve its own services, e.g. to technically optimize the mailing and presentation of the newsletter or for statistical purposes in order to determine which countries the recipients come from. However, the mailing service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them itself or to pass it on to third parties.

18.6 Registration data: To register for the newsletter, it is sufficient to enter your e-mail address. Optionally, we ask you to enter a name so that we can address you personally in the newsletter.

18.7 Statistical collection and analysis - The newsletters contain a so-called "web-beacon", i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the server of the mailing service provider when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval, is initially collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times. The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our intention nor that of the mailing service provider to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users.

18.8 The use of the mailing service provider, the performance of statistical surveys and analyses and the logging of the registration process are based on our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We are interested in using a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves our business interests and meets the expectations of users.

18.9 Cancellation/revocation - You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. At the same time, your consent to the sending of the newsletter by the newsletter service provider and the statistical analyses will expire. Unfortunately, it is not possible to withdraw your consent to the newsletter being sent by the newsletter service provider or to the statistical analysis separately. You will find a link to unsubscribe from the newsletter at the end of each newsletter. If users have only registered for the newsletter and have canceled this registration, their personal data will be deleted.
