7) Online-Marketing

7.1 Facebook Pixel for creating custom audiences (with Cookie Consent Tool)

Within our online offering, the so-called “Facebook Pixel” is used with activated automatic advanced matching from the social network Facebook, which is operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook “) is operated.

If a user clicks on an advertisement we have placed on Facebook, an addition is added to the URL of our linked page by Facebook Pixel. If our site allows sharing data with Facebook via pixels, this URL parameter is written into the user’s browser via a cookie, which our linked site sets itself. This cookie is then read by Facebook Pixel and enables the data to be forwarded to Facebook.

With the help of the Facebook pixel, Facebook is able, on the one hand, to determine the visitors to our online offering as a target group for the display of advertisements (so-called “Facebook Ads”) and to provide additional data, such as hashed emails, names, gender, city, State, zip code and date of birth or telephone number, provided you have provided this data.

Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel to only show the Facebook ads we place to those Facebook users who have shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products) based on the information they visit websites) which we transmit to Facebook (so-called “Custom Audiences”). With the help of the Facebook pixel, we also want to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of the users and do not appear annoying. This allows us to further evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements for statistical and market research purposes by tracking whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook advertisement (so-called “conversion”).

The data collected is anonymous to us, so it does not allow us to draw any conclusions about the identity of the user. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook data usage guidelines (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). The data can enable Facebook and its partners to place advertisements on and outside of Facebook.

The data processing associated with the use of the Facebook Pixel only takes place with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with future effect by deactivating this service in the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

7.2 Google Ads Conversion-Tracking

This website uses the online advertising program “Google Ads” and, as part of Google Ads, conversion tracking from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”). We use Google Ads to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites using advertising materials (so-called Google Adwords). We can use the data from the advertising campaigns to determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. Our aim is to show you advertising that is of interest to you, to make our website more interesting for you and to achieve a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.

The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an Ads ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages on this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked via the websites of Google Ads customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, you will not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.

When using Google Ads, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC. come to the USA.

Details about the processing initiated by Google Ads Conversion Tracking and how Google handles data from websites can be found here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies to read information on the device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent to this in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with future effect by deactivating this service in the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

You can also permanently object to the setting of cookies by Google Ads Conversion Tracking by downloading and installing the Google browser plug-in available at the following link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin ?hl=de

In order to address users whose data we have received as part of business or business-like relationships in an even more appropriate way, we use a customer matching function as part of Google Ads. For this purpose, we transmit one or more files with aggregated customer data (especially email addresses and telephone numbers) to Google electronically. Google does not receive access to clear data, but instead automatically encrypts the information in the customer files using a special algorithm during the transmission process. The encrypted information can then only be used by Google to assign it to existing Google accounts that those affected have set up. This enables personalized advertising to be displayed across all Google services linked to the respective Google account.

We also set up Enhanced Conversions. Enhanced Conversions is a feature designed to improve the accuracy of conversion tracking while protecting user privacy by supplementing existing conversion tags with hashed first-party conversion data from the website. Hashing the first-party data before sending it to Google Ads ensures privacy by converting personal information such as name and email address into a hashed string.

In order to optimize our website content and measure the success of advertising campaigns, we track the behavior of our website visitors via Google Analytics and Google Ads.

Of course, tracking only takes place if you have given your consent via the cookie banner.

We would also like to point out that unless consent has been given to personal tracking, a non-personal and cookie-free analysis will take place. The following data is processed:

Functional information (such as headers passively added by the browser):

time stamp

User agent

Referral URL

Aggregated or non-personal data:

Indicates whether the current page or a previous page in the user’s navigation history on the website contains ad click information in the URL (e.g. GCLID/DCLID)

Boolean information about consent status

Random number that is generated when the respective page loads

In this way, we can track the flow of visitors to our website (but not individual usage behavior).

Customer data will only be transmitted to Google if you have given us your express consent to do so in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke this consent from us at any time with effect for the future. Further information about Google’s data protection measures in relation to the customer match function can be found here: https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/6334160?hl=de&ref_topic=10550182
