(9) This processing of data serves the purpose of tailoring the newsletter to your individual interests, optimizing our offer and making it more interesting for you overall. This is also our legitimate interest. If you have given us your consent, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. Insofar as the processing is otherwise based on our legitimate interests, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

We would like to point out that in this case the newsletter will not be displayed in full and you may not be able to use all the functions of the newsletter. If you manually activate the display of images, the analysis of your user behavior described above will take place again.

(10) We process and/or store your personal data on a server of an external provider in the European Union. This ensures that the standards and regulations of European data protection law are complied with.

10. CLEVERREACH

We use “CleverReach” on our website, a service provided by CleverReach GmbH & Co KG, CRASH Building, Schafjückenweg 2, 26180 Rastede, Germany (hereinafter referred to as “CleverReach”). We use CleverReach to send our newsletter. For this purpose, the data provided by you when registering for the newsletter will be passed on to CleverReach. CleverReach uses this data to send and statistically analyze the newsletter on our behalf. The newsletter emails contain web beacons or tracking pixels for this purpose. These are one-pixel-sized image files that are stored on our websites. This allows your user behavior to be tracked, in particular whether you have opened the newsletter email or which hyperlinks in the email you have clicked on. CleverReach can also carry out conversion tracking, i.e. determine whether a previously desired action has taken place after clicking on the hyperlink in the newsletter email. In addition, technical information such as the time of retrieval, your IP address, data on your web browser and operating system are recorded. This data is only collected in pseudonymized form. The data is not linked to any other personal data. A direct personal reference is therefore excluded.

We use CleverReach on the basis of your consent. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

11. DOUBLECLICK

We use “DoubleClick” on our website, an online marketing tool from Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as “Google”). Among other things, DoubleClick uses cookies, i.e. small text files that are stored locally in the cache of your web browser on your end device. Google uses a cookie ID to record which ads are displayed in which web browser. This prevents ads from being displayed more than once. DoubleClick can also use cookie IDs to record so-called conversions that are related to ad requests. This is the case, for example, if you see a DoubleClick ad and later visit the advertiser’s website with the same web browser and make a purchase there. According to Google, the aforementioned cookies do not contain any personal data. By using DoubleClick, 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 DoubleClick. To the best of our knowledge, Google receives the information that you have accessed the relevant part of our website or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you have a user account with Google and are registered, Google can assign the visit to your user account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, there is a possibility that Google will find out your IP address and store it.

We use DoubleClick for marketing and optimization purposes, in particular to display ads that are relevant and interesting to you, to improve campaign performance reports or to prevent you from seeing the same ads more than once. This also constitutes our legitimate interest in the processing of the aforementioned data by the third-party provider. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

You can prevent the installation of cookies by deleting existing cookies and deactivating the storage of cookies in the settings of your web browser. We would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of our website to their full extent. You can also prevent the storage of cookies by setting your web browser to block cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com” (
https://adssettings.google.de). Please note that this setting will be deleted if you delete your cookies. You can also opt out of interest-based ads via the link
Deactivate https://optout.aboutads.info. Please note that this setting will also be deleted if you delete your cookies.

12. GOOGLE ANALYTICS

We use “Google Analytics” on our website, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as “Google”). Google uses cookies, i.e. small text files that are stored on your end device and enable your use of our website to be analyzed. The information generated by the cookie about the use of our website is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored there. If anonymization of the IP address to be transmitted by the cookie is activated on the website (“IP anonymization”), your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server outside the EU and truncated there. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of our website, to compile reports on website use and to provide us with other services relating to website use and internet use. Pseudonymous user profiles can be created from the processed data. The IP address transmitted when using Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

13. GOOGLE MAPS

We use “Google Maps” on our website, an online map service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as “Google”). This allows us to show you interactive maps directly on the website and enables you to use the map function conveniently. When you visit our website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. Your IP address will be transmitted. This takes place regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not wish your data to be associated with your Google profile, you must log out beforehand. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or needs-based design of the 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 about your activities on our website.

We use Google Maps to show you interactive maps from Google Maps and thus provide you with a better user experience on our website. This is also our legitimate interest in the processing of the above data by the third-party provider. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact Google to exercise this right.

14 RAPIDMAIL

We use “RapidMail”, a service provided by Sendinblue GmbH, Köpenicker Str. 126, 10179 Berlin, Germany (hereinafter referred to as “RapidMail”), to provide and send the newsletter. For this purpose, the data provided by you when registering for the newsletter will be passed on to RapidMail. RapidMAIL uses this data to send the newsletter on our behalf.

We use RapidMail on the basis of your consent. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. We use RapidMail to provide you with a newsletter. We also use RapidMail for marketing and optimization purposes, in particular to send you information about our offers. This is also our legitimate interest in processing the above information. The legal basis is therefore also Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

You can revoke your consent at any time. You can also object to the above processing at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. You can also prevent the installation of cookies by deleting existing cookies and deactivating the storage of cookies in the settings of your web browser. We would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of our website to their full extent. You can object to the collection and forwarding of personal data or prevent the processing of this data by deactivating the execution of Java Script in your browser. You can also prevent the execution of Java Script code altogether by installing a Java Script blocker (e.g.
https://noscript.net/
or
https://www.ghostery.com).

We would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of our website to their full extent.

The data provided by you when registering for the newsletter will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. This is the case when you unsubscribe from the newsletter. The data will be deleted both from our servers and from the RapidMail servers after you unsubscribe from the newsletter.

Information from the third-party provider: Sendinblue GmbH, Köpenicker Str. 126, 10179 Berlin, Germany. Further information from the third-party provider on data protection can be found on the following website:
https://de.sendinblue.com/legal/privacypolicy/.

We also use Sendinblue to statistically evaluate the user behavior of newsletter subscribers. The newsletter emails contain web beacons or tracking pixels for this purpose. These are one-pixel-sized image files that are stored on our websites. This allows your user behavior to be tracked, in particular whether you have opened the newsletter email or which hyperlinks you have clicked on in the email. RapidMail can also carry out conversion tracking, i.e. determine whether a predefined action has taken place after clicking on the hyperlink in the newsletter email. In addition, technical information such as the time of retrieval, your IP address, data on your web browser and operating system are recorded.

We carry out the above processing of your data on the basis of the consent you have given. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. In this respect, we use Sendinblue for marketing and optimization purposes, in particular to analyze the use of our website and our newsletter and to continuously improve individual functions and offers as well as the user experience for you. By statistically evaluating user behavior, we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. This is also our legitimate interest in processing the above information. The legal basis is therefore also Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

15. YOUTUBE

We integrate videos from “YouTube”, a social media platform of Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as “Google”) on the web pages of our website. When you access a website in which a video from YouTube is integrated, data is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. If you have a user account with Google and are registered, Google can assign the visit to your user account. Google stores this data as a user profile and uses it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its websites. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to display 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. Please contact Google directly for this purpose.

We integrate YouTube content on our website in order to make this content directly available to you without you having to access the content separately on YouTube. This allows you to use functions of the YouTube social media platform on our website. This allows us to improve our offer and the user experience for you and make it more interesting. This also constitutes our legitimate interest in the processing of the aforementioned data by the third-party provider. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

If you wish to prevent data transfer, you cannot use the YouTube functions. Irrespective of this, we recommend that you regularly log out of your user account after using a social network, especially before activating integrated content, as this will prevent you from being assigned to your profile with the respective provider.

Information from the third-party provider: Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland. Further information on data protection and the use of data by Google can be found on the following Google website:
