3. data collection on our website

cookies

Our Internet pages use so-called cookies in several places. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. They serve to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. Furthermore, cookies enable our systems to recognize your browser and offer you services. Cookies do not contain any personal data.

Use of the remarketing or "similar target group" function of Google Inc.
The provider uses on the website the remarketing or "similar target group" function of Google Inc. "("Google"). This feature enables the provider to target visitors to the website with advertising by delivering personalized, interest-based ads to visitors to the provider's website when they visit other websites on the Google Display Network. Google uses cookies to analyze website usage, which forms the basis for creating interest-based advertisements. Google stores a small file with a sequence of numbers in the browsers of visitors to the website. This number is used to record visits to the website and anonymised data on the use of the website. No personal data of visitors to the website is stored. If you subsequently visit another website in the Google Display Network, you will see ads that are highly likely to include previously accessed product and information areas.
You can permanently deactivate the use of cookies by Google by following the following link and downloading and installing the plug-in provided there:
https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin?hl=en

Alternatively, you can disable the use of cookies by third parties by visiting the deactivation page of the Network Advertising Initiative at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and implementing the additional opt-out information mentioned there.
For more information about Google Remarketing and Google's privacy policy, please visit: http://www.google.com/privacy/ads/  

Using the remarketing function of the ExactTarget

We use the remarketing function of the email service provider ExactTarget, Inc. 20 North Meridian Street Suite 200 Indianapolis, Indiana 46204 USA ("ExactTarget"). If you have consented to receive our newsletter and visit our site via a newsletter, cookies are used. This enables us to track the effectiveness of our newsletters, e.g. whether you have opened an e-mail or which part of the newsletter was particularly interesting.

ExactTarget also uses Web beacons in the majority of emails sent by ExactTarget. Web beacons (also called ClearGIFs or tracking pixels) are small graphics (approx. 1x1 large GIF files) that are used on websites or in HTML e-mails to give website operators a better understanding of how visitors interact with the website. Web beacons perform similar functions to cookies, but are not noticeable to the user. Web beacons can be used to obtain information about whether the e-mail has been opened and whether the user's system is capable of receiving HTML e-mails. No personal data is collected via the Web Beacon.

If you do not want to receive e-mail messages with web beacons, you can also receive your e-mails in text form (not in HTML format). Web beacons are used together with cookies. You can therefore prevent the use of web beacons by preventing the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of our website in full.

Use the links below to find out how you can manage cookies on the most important browsers (including deactivation):

Mozilla Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/de/kb/cookies-erlauben-und-ablehnen
Safari: http://support.apple.com/kb/ph5042 http://www.apple.com/de/privacy/use-of-cookies/

Use of Facebook Remarketing

The provider uses the remarketing function "Custom Audiences" of Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). This feature enables the provider to target visitors to the website with advertising by placing personalized, interest-based Facebook ads for visitors to the website when they visit the social network Facebook. To perform the function, the Facebook remarketing tag is implemented on the provider's website.
 
This tag establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers when you visit the website. This transfers to the Facebook server which of our Internet pages you have visited. Facebook maps this information to your personal Facebook account. For more information about Facebook's collection and use of the data, your rights and ways to protect your privacy, please see Facebook's privacy policy at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. If you do not want Facebook to associate the collected information directly with your Facebook account, you can deactivate the remarketing function "Custom Audiences" here. You must be logged in to Facebook.

Use of Google Adwords Conversion Tracking

We use the online advertising program "Google AdWords" and conversion tracking as part of Google AdWords. The Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google").
When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is placed on your computer. These cookies have a limited validity, do not contain any personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification.
If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page.
Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. This means that it is not possible to track cookies on the websites of AdWords customers.
The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers can see 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 personally identifies users.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly (deactivation option). They are then not included in the conversion tracking statistics.

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. "("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other countries party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website and Internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link[http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en].

Use of social plug-ins via "Shariff"

To keep you in control of your data, data protection-safe "Shariff" buttons are used on these Internet pages to integrate the sharing functions of the social media services. Without your explicit consent, no links to the servers of the social networks will be established and consequently no data will be transmitted.
"Shariff" is a development of the specialists of the computer magazine c't. It allows more privacy on the net and replaces the usual "share" buttons of social networks. More information about the Shariff project can be found here.
When you click on the buttons, a pop-up window appears in which you can log in to the respective provider with your data. Only after this active login by you a direct connection to the social networks is established.
By logging in you give your consent to the transfer of your data to the respective social media provider. Among other things, both your IP address and the information that you have visited our Internet pages are transmitted. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this assignment by logging out of your social media accounts before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.

Buyer's seal rating system

In addition, we would like to point out the following:
We use the buyer seal rating system. After your order we would like to ask you to evaluate and comment on your purchase with us. For this purpose you will be contacted by us within the scope of contract processing, whereby we use the technical system of the provider of the buyer's seal evaluation tool, Händlerbund Management AG, Torgauer Straße 233 B, 04347 Leipzig, within the scope of order data processing. Your e-mail address will only be used for this purpose and in particular not for further advertising and will not be passed on to other third parties. The personal data stored in the technical system of the buyer seal evaluation tool in this connection will be deleted 3 months after the goods delivery recorded for evaluation.


contact form

If you send us enquiries using the contact form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact data you provided there, will be stored for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal e-mail. The legality of the data processing processes carried out up to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data entered by you in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete, your consent for storage revoked or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.
