Analysis Advertising Tracking Communication

Use of Google Analytics 4
We use the web analysis service Google Analytics from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; “Google”) on our website.
The data processing serves the purpose of analyzing this website and its visitors, as well as for marketing and advertising purposes. Google will use the information obtained on behalf of the website operator to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide the website operator with other services related to website activity and internet usage.
The following information may be collected, among others: IP address, date and time of the page visit, click path, information about the browser and device you use, pages visited, referrer URL (website from which you accessed our website), location data, purchasing activities. Google may link your data with other data, such as your search history, your personal accounts, your usage data from other devices, and any other data Google has about you.

Your IP address will be shortened by us on our own servers beforehand. Google thus receives only pseudonymized data.

Google uses technologies such as cookies, web storage in the browser, and tracking pixels that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The use of cookies or similar technologies is based on your consent in accordance with Section 25 (1) (1) TTDSG in conjunction with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

Your personal data will be processed with your consent on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You may revoke your consent at any time without affecting the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until the revocation.

In this context, we also use the Google Signals service. Google Signals enables cross-device tracking. Your data can therefore be analyzed across devices if you have activated "personalized advertising" in your account settings and your devices are linked to your Google Account. This makes it possible to recognize which device you use to search for products and later return to complete purchases on another device, such as a tablet.
The cross-device reports created in this context contain only aggregated data. We therefore only receive statistics based on Google Signals. To prevent Google Signals from collecting and storing data across devices, you can deactivate the "personalized ads" function in your Google Account settings. For more information, please visit https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=de .
Further information on data processing and data protection for Google Signals can be found at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7532985?hl=de .

We use the advanced implementation of consent mode (Advanced Consent Mode). This means that user data is transmitted to Google in the form of "pings," even if consent is not granted. These pings may contain, among other things, the following information: IP address to determine the IP country (the IP address is not logged), date and time of the page visit, URL of the pages visited, user agent, referrer URL (website from which our website was accessed), or information about the triggering of website events such as a conversion. Based on this information, Google models user data in order to be able to conduct a comprehensive usage analysis despite the refusal of consent.

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. For the USA, the EU Commission has adopted an adequacy decision, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). Google has certified itself according to the TADPF and is thus committed to adhering to European data protection principles. Both Google and US government authorities have access to your data.

Use of Google Ads Conversion Tracking
We use the online advertising program "Google Ads" on our website, including conversion tracking (visit action analysis). Google Conversion Tracking is an analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; Google).

When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is stored on your computer. These cookies have a limited lifespan, contain no personal data, and are therefore not used to identify you personally. 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 that page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. This means that cookies cannot be tracked across Ads customers' websites.
The information collected through the conversion cookie is used to compile conversion statistics. This tells us the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information that could be used to personally identify users.
We use the advanced implementation of consent mode (Advanced Consent Mode). This means that user data is transmitted to Google in the form of "pings," even if consent is not granted. These pings may contain, among other things, the following information: IP address to determine the IP country (the IP address is not logged), date and time of the page visit, URL of the pages visited, user agent, referrer URL (website from which our website was accessed), or information about the triggering of website events such as a conversion.
