    Data protection

    data protection

    We have written this data protection declaration (version 16.02.2020-321153554) in order to provide you with information in accordance with the requirements of General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 to explain what information we collect, how we use data and what choices you have as a visitor to this website.

    Unfortunately, it is in the nature of things that these explanations sound very technical, but we have tried to describe the most important things as simply and clearly as possible when creating them.

    cookies

    Our website uses HTTP cookies to store user-specific data.
    In the following we explain what cookies are and why they are used so that you can better understand the following data protection declaration.

    What exactly are cookies?

    Whenever you surf the Internet, you use a browser. Well-known browsers include Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge. Most websites store small text files in your browser. These files are called cookies.

    One thing cannot be denied: Cookies are really useful little helpers. Almost all websites use cookies. More precisely, they are HTTP cookies, as there are other cookies for other areas of application. HTTP cookies are small files that are stored on your computer by our website. These cookie files are automatically stored in the cookie folder, which is basically the "brain" of your browser. A cookie consists of a name and a value. When defining a cookie, one or more attributes must also be specified.

    Cookies store certain user data from you, such as language or personal page settings. When you visit our site again, your browser transmits the "user-related" information back to our site. Thanks to the cookies, our website knows who you are and offers you your usual default setting. In some browsers each cookie has its own file, in others such as Firefox all cookies are stored in a single file.

    There are both first-party cookies and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are created directly by our site, third-party cookies are created by partner websites (e.g. Google Analytics). Each cookie must be evaluated individually, since each cookie stores different data. The expiry time of a cookie also varies from a few minutes to a few years. Cookies are not software programs and do not contain viruses, Trojans or other "pests". Cookies also cannot access information on your PC.

    For example, cookie data can look like this:

    • Name: _ga
    • Expiry time: 2 years
    • Use: Differentiation of website visitors
    • Example value: GA1.2.1326744211.152321153554

    A browser should support the following minimum sizes:

    • A cookie should contain at least 4096 bytes
    • At least 50 cookies should be stored per domain
    • A total of at least 3000 cookies should be able to be stored

    What types of cookies are there?

    The question of which cookies we use in particular depends on the services used and is clarified in the following sections of the data protection declaration. At this point we would like to briefly discuss the different types of HTTP cookies.

    There are 4 types of cookies:

    Strictly Necessary Cookies
    These cookies are necessary to ensure basic functions of the website. For example, these cookies are needed if a user puts a product in the shopping cart, then continues surfing on other pages and only goes to the checkout later. These cookies do not delete the shopping cart, even if the user closes their browser window.

    Functional cookies
    These cookies collect information about user behavior and whether the user receives any error messages. In addition, these cookies are also used to measure the loading time and behavior of the website in different browsers.

    Targeting cookies
    These cookies ensure a better user experience. For example, entered locations, font sizes or form data are saved.

    advertising cookies
    These cookies are also called targeting cookies. They are used to provide the user with individually tailored advertising. This can be very useful, but also very annoying.

    Usually, when you visit a website for the first time, you will be asked which of these types of cookies you would like to allow. And of course this decision is also stored in a cookie.

    How can I delete cookies?

    You decide for yourself how and whether you want to use cookies. Regardless of which service or website the cookies come from, you always have the option of deleting cookies, only partially allowing them or deactivating them. For example, you can block third-party cookies but allow all other cookies.

    If you want to find out which cookies have been stored in your browser, if you want to change or delete cookie settings, you can find this in your browser settings:

    Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome

    Safari: Managing Cookies and Website Data with Safari

    Firefox: Clear cookies to remove data websites have placed on your computer

    Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies

    Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies

    If you generally do not want any cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. You can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow the cookie or not. The procedure differs depending on the browser. It is best to search the instructions in Google with the search term “delete cookies Chrome” or “disable cookies Chrome” in case of a Chrome browser or replace the word “Chrome” with the name of your browser, e.g. Edge, Firefox, Safari.

    What about my data protection?

    The so-called “Cookie Guidelines” have been in place since 2009. It states that the storage of cookies requires the consent of the website visitor (i.e. you). Within the EU countries, however, there are still very different reactions to these directives. In Germany, the cookie guidelines have not been implemented as national law. Instead, this guideline was largely implemented in Section 15 (3) of the Telemedia Act (TMG).

    If you want to know more about cookies and don't shy away from technical documentation, we recommend https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265 , the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Request for Comments called “HTTP State Management Mechanism”.

    storage of personal data

    Personal data that you transmit to us electronically on this website, such as name, e-mail address, address or other personal information when submitting a form or comments on the blog, will be stored by us together with the time and the IP Address used only for the purpose stated, kept safe and not passed on to third parties.

    We therefore only use your personal data for communication with those visitors who expressly request contact and for the processing of the services and products offered on this website. We do not pass on your personal data without your consent, but we cannot rule out that this data will be viewed in the event of illegal behavior.

    If you send us personal data by e-mail - thus outside of this website - we cannot guarantee a secure transmission and the protection of your data. We recommend that you never send confidential data unencrypted by e-mail.

    The legal basis exists after Article 6 paragraph 1 a GDPR (lawfulness of processing) is that you give us consent to process the data you have entered. You can revoke this consent at any time - an informal e-mail is sufficient, you will find our contact details in the imprint.

    Rights under the General Data Protection Regulation

    According to the provisions of the GDPR, you have the following rights:

    • Right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR)
    • Right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) (Article 17 GDPR)
    • Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR)
    • Right to notification – obligation to notify in connection with rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing (Article 19 GDPR)
    • Right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR)
    • Right to object (Article 21 GDPR)
    • Right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling (Article 22 GDPR)

    If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection rights have otherwise been violated in any way, you can contact the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (BfDI) turn around.

    Evaluation of visitor behavior

    In the following data protection declaration we inform you whether and how we evaluate data from your visit to this website. The evaluation of the collected data is usually anonymous and we cannot draw any conclusions about your person from your behavior on this website.

    You can find out more about the possibilities of objecting to this evaluation of visit data in the following data protection declaration.

    Google Analytics Privacy Policy

    We use the analysis tracking tool Google Analytics (GA) from the American company Google LLC (1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) on our website. Google Analytics collects data about your actions on our website. For example, if you click on a link, this action is stored in a cookie and sent to Google Analytics. The reports we receive from Google Analytics allow us to better tailor our website and service to your needs. In the following we will go into more detail about the tracking tool and, above all, inform you about which data is stored and how you can prevent this.

    What is Google Analytics?

    Google Analytics is a tracking tool used to analyze traffic on our website. In order for Google Analytics to work, a tracking code is built into the code of our website. When you visit our website, this code records various actions that you take on our website. As soon as you leave our website, this data is sent to the Google Analytics servers and stored there.

    Google processes the data and we receive reports on your user behavior. These reports may include the following:

    • Target group reports: With target group reports, we get to know our users better and know more precisely who is interested in our service.
    • Ad reports: Ad reports make it easier for us to analyze and improve our online advertising.
    • Acquisition Reports: Acquisition reports provide us with helpful information on how to attract more people to our service.
    • Behavior Reports: Here we learn how you interact with our website. We can understand which path you take on our site and which links you click on.
    • Conversion reports: Conversion is a process in which you perform a desired action based on a marketing message. For example, when you go from being a mere website visitor to a buyer or newsletter subscriber. These reports enable us to learn more about how our marketing measures are resonating with you. This is how we want to increase our conversion rate.
    • Real-time reports: Here we always know immediately what is happening on our website. For example, we can see how many users are currently reading this text.

    Why do we use Google Analytics on our website?

    Our goal with this website is clear: We want to offer you the best possible service. The statistics and data from Google Analytics help us to achieve this goal.

    The statistically evaluated data give us a clear picture of the strengths and weaknesses of our website. On the one hand, we can optimize our site so that interested people can find it more easily on Google. On the other hand, the data helps us to better understand you as a visitor. We therefore know exactly what we need to improve on our website in order to offer you the best possible service. The data also helps us to carry out our advertising and marketing measures more individually and cost-effectively. After all, it only makes sense to show our products and services to people who care.

    What data is stored by Google Analytics?

    Google Analytics uses a tracking code to create a random, unique ID that is linked to your browser cookie. This is how Google Analytics recognizes you as a new user. The next time you visit our site, you will be recognized as a "returning" user. All collected data is stored together with this user ID. This makes it possible to evaluate pseudonymous user profiles in the first place.

    Identifiers such as cookies and app instance IDs are used to measure your interactions on our website. Interactions are any type of action you take on our website. If you also use other Google systems (such as a Google account), data generated via Google Analytics can be linked to third-party cookies. Google does not pass on Google Analytics data unless we as the website operator authorize this. Exceptions may arise if required by law.

    The following cookies are used by Google Analytics:

    Surname: _ga
    Value: 2.1326744211.152321153554-5

    Expiry date: after 6 months

    Surname: __utmv
    Value: not specified
    Purpose of use: The cookie is used to store custom user data. It is always updated when information is sent to Google Analytics.
    Expiry date: after 2 years

    Note: This list cannot claim to be complete, since Google is constantly changing the choice of its cookies.

    Here we show you an overview of the most important data that is collected with Google Analytics:

    Heat maps: Google creates so-called heat maps. Heatmaps show exactly those areas that you click on. This is how we get information about where you are on our site.

    Session duration: Google describes the session duration as the time you spend on our site without leaving the site. If you have been inactive for 20 minutes, the session ends automatically.

    bounce rate (Bounce rate): A bounce is when you only view one page on our website and then leave our website again.

    Account creation: If you create an account or place an order on our website, Google Analytics collects this data.

    IP address: The IP address is only shown in abbreviated form so that no clear assignment is possible.

    Location: The country and your approximate location can be determined via the IP address. This process is also referred to as IP location determination.

    Technical information: The technical information includes, among other things, your browser type, your Internet provider or your screen resolution.

    Source of origin: Of course, Google Analytics or us are also interested in which website or which advertisement you came to our site from.

    Other data are contact details, any ratings, playing media (e.g. if you play a video on our site), sharing content via social media or adding it to your favorites. The list does not claim to be complete and only serves as a general guide to data storage by Google Analytics.

    How long and where is the data stored?

    Google has distributed their servers all over the world. Most of the servers are located in America and consequently your data is mostly stored on American servers. Here you can read exactly where the Google data centers are located: https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de

    Your data is distributed across different physical media. This has the advantage that the data can be called up more quickly and is better protected against manipulation. Every Google data center has emergency programs for your data. For example, if Google's hardware fails or natural disasters paralyze servers, the risk of a service interruption at Google remains low.

    A standard storage period for your user data of 26 months is set for Google Analytics. Then your user data will be deleted. However, we have the option of choosing the retention period for user data ourselves. We have five options available for this:

    • Deletion after 14 months
    • Deletion after 26 months
    • Deletion after 38 months
    • Deletion after 50 months
    • No automatic deletion

    When the specified period has expired, the data will be deleted once a month. This retention period applies to your data associated with cookies, user recognition and advertising IDs (e.g. cookies from the DoubleClick domain). Report results are based on aggregated data and are stored independently of user data. Aggregated data is a merging of individual data into a larger unit.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

    Under European Union data protection law, you have the right to access, update, delete or restrict your data. You can prevent Google Analytics from using your data by using the browser add-on to disable Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, dc.js). You can download the browser add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de download and install. Please note that this add-on only disables data collection by Google Analytics.

    If you generally want to deactivate, delete or manage cookies (regardless of Google Analytics), there are separate instructions for each browser:

    Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome

    Safari: Managing Cookies and Website Data with Safari

    Firefox: Clear cookies to remove data websites have placed on your computer

    Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies

    Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies

    Google Analytics is an active participant in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework, which regulates the correct and secure data transfer of personal data. You can find more information on this at https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&tid=321153554 . We hope we were able to provide you with the most important information about data processing by Google Analytics. If you want to learn more about the tracking service, we recommend these two links: http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html and https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de .

    Google Analytics IP anonymization

    We have implemented Google Analytics IP address anonymization on this website. This function was developed by Google so that this website can comply with applicable data protection regulations and recommendations from local data protection authorities if they prohibit the storage of the full IP address. The IP is anonymized or masked as soon as the IP addresses arrive in the Google Analytics data collection network and before the data is stored or processed.

    You can find more information on IP anonymization at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2763052?hl=de .

    Google Analytics reports on demographics and interests

    We have activated the functions for advertising reports in Google Analytics. The Demographics and Interests reports include information about age, gender, and interests. This enables us to get a better picture of our users without being able to assign this data to individual persons. Learn more about the advertising features at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/3450482?hl=de_AT&utm_id=ad .

    You can control the use of your Google Account activity and information under “Advertising Settings”. https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated exit via checkbox.

    Google Analytics deactivation link

    If you click following deactivation link click, you can prevent Google from recording further visits to this website. Attention: Deleting cookies, using the incognito/private mode of your browser, or using a different browser will result in data being collected again.

    [google_analytics_optout]Disable Google Analytics[/google_analytics_optout]

    Google Analytics addendum to data processing

    We have entered into a direct customer agreement with Google for the use of Google Analytics by accepting the “Data Processing Amendment” in Google Analytics.

    You can find out more about the data processing addendum for Google Analytics here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/3379636?hl=de&utm_id=ad

    Google Analytics Google Signals Privacy Policy

    We have activated the Google signals in Google Analytics. The existing Google Analytics functions (advertising reports, remarketing, cross-device reports and reports on interests and demographic characteristics) are updated to receive aggregated and anonymous data from you, provided you have allowed personalized ads in your Google account.

    The special thing about it is that it is a cross-device tracking. That means your data can be analyzed across devices. By activating Google signals, data is collected and linked to the Google account. This allows Google to recognize, for example, when you view a product on our website using a smartphone and only later buy the product using a laptop. Thanks to the activation of Google signals, we can start cross-device remarketing campaigns that would otherwise not be possible in this form. Remarketing means that we can also show you our offer on other websites.

    Google Analytics also collects additional visitor data such as location, search history, YouTube history and data about your actions on our website through the Google signals. This gives us better advertising reports and more useful information about your interests and demographics from Google. This includes your age, what language you speak, where you live or what gender you belong to. There are also social criteria such as your job, your marital status or your income. All of these features help Google Analytics to define groups of people or target groups.

    The reports also help us to better assess your behavior, your wishes and interests. This enables us to optimize and adapt our services and products for you. By default, this data expires after 26 months. Please note that this data collection only takes place if you have allowed personalized advertising in your Google account. This is always aggregated and anonymous data and never personal data. You can manage or delete this data in your Google account.

    Facebook pixel privacy policy

    We use the Facebook pixel from Facebook on our website. We have implemented code for this on our website. The Facebook pixel is a snippet of JavaScript code that loads a collection of functions that Facebook can use to track your user actions if you came to our website via Facebook ads. For example, when you purchase a product on our website, the Facebook pixel is triggered and stores your actions on our website in one or more cookies. These cookies enable Facebook to compare your user data (customer data such as IP address, user ID) with the data in your Facebook account. Then Facebook deletes this data again. The data collected is anonymous and cannot be viewed by us and can only be used in the context of placing advertisements. If you are a Facebook user yourself and are logged in, your visit to our website will automatically be assigned to your Facebook user account.

    We only want to show our services and products to those people who are really interested in them. With the help of Facebook pixels, our advertising measures can be better tailored to your wishes and interests. In this way, Facebook users (if they have allowed personalized advertising) will see appropriate advertising. Furthermore, Facebook uses the collected data for analysis purposes and its own advertisements.

    In the following we show you the cookies that were set by integrating Facebook pixels on a test page. Please note that these are just example cookies. Depending on the interaction on our website, different cookies are set.

    Surname: _fbp
    Value: fb.1.1568287647279.257405483-6321153554-7

    Purpose of use: This cookie is used to ensure that the Facebook pixel works properly.
    Expiry Date: after 3 months

    Surname: comment_author_50ae8267e2bdf1253ec1a5769f48e062321153554-3
    Value: Author's name
    Purpose of use: This cookie stores the text and name of a user who leaves a comment, for example.
    Expiry Date: after 12 months

    Surname: comment_author_url_50ae8267e2bdf1253ec1a5769f48e062
    Value: https%3A%2F%2Fwww.testseite…%2F (author's URL)
    Purpose of use: This cookie stores the URL of the website that the user enters in a text field on our website.
    Expiry Date: after 12 months

    Surname: comment_author_email_50ae8267e2bdf1253ec1a5769f48e062
    Value: Author email address
    Purpose of use: This cookie saves the user's e-mail address if they have provided it on the website.
    Expiry Date: after 12 months

    Note: The cookies mentioned above relate to individual user behavior. Changes on Facebook can never be ruled out, especially when using cookies.

    If you are logged in to Facebook, you can change your settings for advertisements under https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen . If you are not a Facebook user, you can http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/ basically manage your usage-based online advertising. There you have the option of deactivating or activating providers.

    If you want to learn more about Facebook's privacy policy, we recommend the company's own privacy policy https://www.facebook.com/policy.php .

    Facebook Automatic Advanced Matching Privacy Policy

    We have also activated Automatic Advanced Matching as part of the Facebook pixel feature. This feature of the pixel allows us to send hashed email, name, gender, city, state, zip code and date of birth or phone number to Facebook as additional information, provided you have provided us with this information. This activation enables us to tailor advertising campaigns on Facebook even more precisely to people who are interested in our services or products.

    Google Tag Manager Privacy Policy

    For our website we use the Google Tag Manager from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). This tag manager is one of many helpful marketing products from Google. Using the Google Tag Manager, we can centrally install and manage code sections from various tracking tools that we use on our website.

    In this privacy policy, we want to explain to you in more detail what the Google Tag Manager does, why we use it and how data is processed.

    What is Google Tag Manager?

    The Google Tag Manager is an organizational tool that we can use to integrate and manage website tags centrally and via a user interface. Tags are small code sections that, for example, record (track) your activities on our website. For this purpose, JavaScript code sections are used in the source code of our site. The tags often come from internal Google products such as Google Ads or Google Analytics, but tags from other companies can also be integrated and managed via the manager. Such tags take on different tasks. They can collect browser data, feed marketing tools with data, embed buttons, set cookies and also track users across multiple websites.

    Why do we use Google Tag Manager for our website?

    As the saying goes: Organization is half the battle! And of course that also applies to the maintenance of our website. In order to make our website as good as possible for you and all people who are interested in our products and services, we need various tracking tools such as Google Analytics. The data collected by these tools show us what interests you most, where we can improve our services and to which people we should still show our offers. And for this tracking to work, we have to embed the appropriate JavaScript codes into our website. In principle, we could integrate each code section of the individual tracking tools separately into our source code. However, this requires a relatively large amount of time and it is easy to lose track. That's why we use the Google Tag Manager. We can easily build in the necessary scripts and manage them from one place. In addition, the Google Tag Manager offers an easy-to-use user interface and you do not need any programming knowledge. This is how we manage to keep order in our daily jungle.

    What data is stored by Google Tag Manager?

    The Tag Manager itself is a domain that does not set cookies and does not store any data. It acts as a mere "manager" of the implemented tags. The data is recorded by the individual tags of the different web analysis tools. The data is passed through to the individual tracking tools in the Google Tag Manager and not saved.

    However, it looks completely different with the integrated tags of the various web analysis tools, such as Google Analytics. Depending on the analysis tool, various data about your web behavior is usually collected, stored and processed with the help of cookies. To do this, please read our data protection texts on the individual analysis and tracking tools that we use on our website.

    In the Tag Manager account settings, we have allowed Google to receive anonymous data from us. However, this only relates to the use and utilization of our tag manager and not to your data, which is stored via the code sections. We enable Google and others to receive selected data in an anonymous form. We therefore agree to the anonymous transfer of our website data. Despite extensive research, we were not able to find out exactly which summarized and anonymous data is forwarded. In any case, Google deletes all information that could identify our website. Google combines the data with hundreds of other anonymous website data and creates user trends as part of benchmarking measures. In benchmarking, your own results are compared with those of your competitors. Processes can be optimized on the basis of the information collected.

    How long and where is the data stored?

    When Google saves data, this data is saved on Google's own servers. The servers are spread all over the world. Most are in America. Under https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de you can read exactly where the Google servers are located.

    How long the individual tracking tools store your data can be found in our individual data protection texts for the individual tools.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

    The Google Tag Manager itself does not set any cookies, but manages tags from various tracking websites. In our data protection texts for the individual tracking tools, you will find detailed information on how to delete or manage your data.

    Google is an active participant in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework, which regulates the correct and secure data transfer of personal data.

    Facebook Privacy Policy

    We use selected Facebook tools from Facebook on our website. Facebook is a social media network operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2 Ireland. These tools allow us to offer you and people who are interested in our products and services the best possible offer. Below we provide an overview of the various Facebook tools, what data is sent to Facebook and how you can delete this data.

    What are Facebook tools?

    In addition to many other products, Facebook also offers the so-called “Facebook Business Tools”. This is the official name of Facebook. But since the term is hardly known, we decided to just call them Facebook tools. These include, among others:

    • Facebook pixel
    • social plug-ins (such as the "Like" or "Share" button)
    • Facebook login
    • Account Kit
    • APIs (programming interface)
    • SDKs (collection of programming tools)
    • Platform Integrations
    • plugins
    • codes
    • specifications
    • documentations
    • Technologies and Services

    Through these tools, Facebook expands its services and has the ability to receive information about user activities outside of Facebook.

    Why do we use Facebook tools on our website?

    We only want to show our services and products to people who are really interested in them. With the help of advertisements (Facebook ads) we can reach exactly these people. In order to be able to show users appropriate advertising, however, Facebook needs information about people's wishes and needs. Information about user behavior (and contact details) is made available to the company on our website. As a result, Facebook collects better user data and can show interested people appropriate advertising about our products or services. The tools thus enable tailor-made advertising campaigns on Facebook.

    Facebook calls data about your behavior on our website “event data”. These are also used for measurement and analysis services. Facebook can thus create "campaign reports" on our behalf about the effect of our advertising campaigns. Furthermore, through analyzes we get a better insight into how you use our services, website or products. As a result, we use some of these tools to optimize your user experience on our website. For example, you can use the social plug-ins to share content on our site directly on Facebook.

    What data is stored by Facebook tools?

    By using individual Facebook tools, personal data (customer data) can be sent to Facebook. Depending on the tools used, customer data such as name, address, telephone number and IP address can be sent.

    Facebook uses this information to match the data with their own data that it has about you (if you are a Facebook member). Before customer data is transmitted to Facebook, so-called "hashing" takes place. This means that a data set of any size is transformed into a character string. This is also used to encrypt data.

    In addition to the contact data, "event data" is also transmitted. "Event data" means the information that we receive about you on our website. For example, which subpages you visit or which products you buy from us. Facebook does not share the information it receives with third parties (such as advertisers) unless the company has explicit permission or is legally required to do so. "Event data" may also be linked to contact information. This allows Facebook to offer better personalized advertising. After the matching process already mentioned, Facebook deletes the contact data again.

    In order to be able to deliver advertisements in an optimized manner, Facebook only uses the event data if it has been combined with other data (which was collected by Facebook in a different way). Facebook also uses this event data for security, protection, development and research purposes. Much of this data is transmitted to Facebook via cookies. Cookies are small text files that are used to store data or information in browsers. Depending on the tools used and whether you are a Facebook member, a different number of cookies will be created in your browser. In the descriptions of the individual Facebook tools, we go into more detail about individual Facebook cookies. You can also find general information about the use of Facebook cookies at https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies .

    How long and where is the data stored?

    In principle, Facebook stores data until it is no longer required for its own services and Facebook products. Facebook has servers all over the world where your data is stored. However, customer data will be deleted within 48 hours after it has been compared with your own user data.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

    In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to information, correction, transferability and deletion of your data.

    The data will only be completely deleted if you completely delete your Facebook account. And this is how deleting your Facebook account works:

    1) Click Settings on the right side of Facebook.

    2) Then click on "Your Facebook Information" in the left column.

    3) Now click “Deactivation and Deletion”.

    4) Now select “Delete Account” and then click “Next and Delete Account”

    5) Now enter your password, click on "Next" and then on "Delete Account"

    The data that Facebook receives via our site is stored, among other things, via cookies (e.g. in the case of social plugins). You can deactivate, delete or manage individual or all cookies in your browser. Depending on which browser you use, this works in different ways. The following instructions show how to manage cookies in your browser:

    Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome

    Safari: Managing Cookies and Website Data with Safari

    Firefox: Clear cookies to remove data websites have placed on your computer

    Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies

    Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies

    If you generally do not want any cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. You can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow it or not.

    Facebook is an active participant in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework, which regulates the correct and secure data transfer of personal data. You can find more information on this at https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC . We hope we have given you the most important information about the use and data processing by the Facebook tools.

    Facebook Social Plugins Privacy Policy

    So-called social plug-ins from the company Facebook Inc. are installed on our website. You can recognize these buttons by the classic Facebook logo, such as the "Like" button (the hand with the thumb raised) or by a clear "Facebook plug-in" label. A social plugin is a small piece of Facebook that is integrated into our site. Each plugin has its own function. The most used features are the familiar “Like” and “Share” buttons.

    The following social plug-ins are offered by Facebook:

    • “Save” button
    • Like button, share, send and quote
    • Page Plugin
    • Comments
    • Messenger plugin

    In order to prevent Facebook from collecting a lot of data during your visit to our website and connecting it to Facebook data, you must log out of Facebook while you are visiting the website (log out).

    If you are not logged into Facebook or do not have a Facebook account, your browser will send less information to Facebook because you have fewer Facebook cookies. Nevertheless, data such as your IP address or which website you visit can be transmitted to Facebook. We would like to expressly point out that we do not know the exact content of the data. However, based on our current state of knowledge, we try to inform you as much as possible about data processing. You can also find out how Facebook uses the data in the company's data policy at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/update read.

    At least the following cookies are set in your browser when you visit a website with social plug-ins from Facebook:

    Facebook Login Privacy Policy

    We have integrated the practical Facebook login on our site. You can easily log in to us with your Facebook account without having to create another user account. If you decide to register via the Facebook login, you will be redirected to the social media network Facebook. There you can register using your Facebook user data. This login procedure saves data about you and your user behavior and transmits it to Facebook.

    In order to save the data, Facebook uses various cookies. In the following we show you the most important cookies that are set in your browser or already exist when you log in to our site using the Facebook login:

    Surname: fr

    Instagram Privacy Policy

    We have integrated Instagram functions on our website. Instagram is a social media platform operated by Instagram LLC, 1601 Willow Rd, Menlo Park CA 94025, USA. Instagram has been a subsidiary of Facebook Inc. since 2012 and is one of the Facebook products. Embedding Instagram content on our website is called embedding. This enables us to show you content such as buttons, photos or videos from Instagram directly on our website. If you call up web pages on our website that have an integrated Instagram function, data will be transmitted to Instagram, stored and processed. Instagram uses the same systems and technologies as Facebook. Your data will thus be processed across all Facebook companies.

    In the following we would like to give you a more detailed insight into why Instagram collects data, what data it is and how you can largely control the data processing. Since Instagram belongs to Facebook Inc., we get our information from the Instagram guidelines on the one hand, but also from the Facebook data guidelines on the other.

    What is Instagram?

    Instagram is one of the most well-known social media networks worldwide. Instagram combines the advantages of a blog with the advantages of audiovisual platforms such as YouTube or Vimeo. You can upload photos and short videos to "Insta" (as many users casually call the platform), edit them with various filters and also share them on other social networks. And if you don't want to be active yourself, you can just follow other interesting users.

    Why do we use Instagram on our website?

    Instagram is the social media platform that has really taken off in recent years. And of course we also reacted to this boom. We want you to feel as comfortable as possible on our website. Therefore, a varied preparation of our content is a matter of course for us. The embedded Instagram functions allow us to enrich our content with helpful, funny or exciting content from the Instagram world. Since Instagram is a subsidiary of Facebook, the data collected can also be useful for personalized advertising on Facebook. In this way, our advertisements only get to people who are really interested in our products or services.

    Instagram also uses the collected data for measurement and analysis purposes. We get summarized statistics and thus more insight into your wishes and interests. It is important to note that these reports do not personally identify you.

    What data is stored by Instagram?

    When you come across one of our pages that has Instagram features (such as Instagram images or plugins) built in, your browser automatically connects to Instagram's servers. Data is sent to Instagram, stored and processed. This is regardless of whether you have an Instagram account or not. This includes information about our website, about your computer, about purchases made, about advertisements that you see and how you use our offer. Furthermore, the date and time of your interaction with Instagram are also saved. If you have an Instagram account or are logged in, Instagram stores significantly more data about you.

    Facebook distinguishes between customer data and event data. We assume that this is the case with Instagram as well. Customer data are, for example, name, address, telephone number and IP address. It is important to mention that this customer data is only transmitted to Instagram if it has been "hashed" beforehand. Hashing means converting a record into a string. This allows you to encrypt the contact data. In addition, the “event data” mentioned above are also transmitted. Facebook – and consequently also Instagram – understands “event data” to be data about your user behavior. It can also happen that contact data is combined with event data. The contact data collected will be compared with the data that Instagram already has from you.

    The collected data is transmitted to Facebook via small text files (cookies), which are usually set in your browser. Depending on the Instagram functions used and whether you have an Instagram account yourself, different amounts of data are stored.

    We assume that data processing works the same on Instagram as on Facebook. That means: if you have an Instagram account or www.instagram.com visited, Instagram has set at least one cookie. If this is the case, your browser sends information to Instagram via the cookie as soon as you come into contact with an Instagram function. This data will be deleted or made anonymous again after 90 days at the latest (after comparison). Although we have dealt intensively with Instagram's data processing, we cannot say exactly what data Instagram collects and stores.

    In the following we show you cookies that are set in your browser at least when you click on an Instagram function (such as a button or an Insta image). In our test, we assume that you do not have an Instagram account. Of course, if you are logged in to Instagram, significantly more cookies will be set in your browser.

    These cookies were used in our test:

    Surname: csrftoken
    Value: “”
    Purpose: This cookie is set with high probability for security reasons to prevent falsification of requests. However, we could not find out more precisely.
    Expiry Date: after a year

    Surname: middle
    Value: “”
    Purpose of use: Instagram sets this cookie to optimize its own services and offers on and off Instagram. The cookie defines a unique user ID.

    Surname: right

    Purpose of use: This is an Instagram cookie that ensures functionality on Instagram.

    Purpose of use: This cookie is used for Instagram marketing purposes.
    Expiry Date: after the end of the session

    Annotation: We cannot claim completeness here. Which cookies are set in the individual case depends on the embedded functions and your use of Instagram.

    How long and where is the data stored?

    Instagram shares the information it receives between the Facebook companies with external partners and with people you connect with around the world. Data processing is carried out in compliance with our own data policy. For security reasons, among other things, your data is distributed across the world on Facebook servers. Most of these servers are located in the USA.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

    Thanks to the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to information, transferability, correction and deletion of your data. You can manage your data in the Instagram settings. If you want to completely erase your data on Instagram, you need to permanently delete your Instagram account.

    And this is how the Instagram account deletion works:

    First, open the Instagram app. On your profile page, go down and click on "Help Center". You are now on the company's website. On the webpage, click "Manage Account" and then click "Delete Your Account".

    If you delete your account entirely, Instagram will delete posts such as your photos and status updates. Information that other people have shared about you is not part of your account and consequently will not be deleted.

    As already mentioned above, Instagram stores your data primarily via cookies. You can manage, deactivate or delete these cookies in your browser. Management always works a bit differently depending on your browser. Here we show you the instructions for the most important browsers.

    Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome

    Safari: Managing Cookies and Website Data with Safari

    Firefox: Clear cookies to remove data websites have placed on your computer

    Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies

    Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies

    You can also basically set up your browser so that you are always informed when a cookie is to be set. Then you can always decide individually whether you want to allow the cookie or not.

    Instagram is a subsidiary of Facebook Inc. and Facebook is an active participant in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework. This framework ensures correct data transmission between the USA and the European Union. Learn more at https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC . We have tried to give you the most important information about data processing by Instagram. On https://help.instagram.com/519522125107875
    you can learn more about Instagram's data policies.

    YouTube Privacy Policy

    We have embedded YouTube videos on our website. This allows us to present you with interesting videos directly on our site. YouTube is a video portal that has been a subsidiary of Google LLC since 2006. The video portal is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. If you call up a page on our website that has an embedded YouTube video, your browser automatically connects to the YouTube or Google servers. Various data are transmitted (depending on the settings). Google is responsible for all data processing and Google's data protection also applies.

    In the following we would like to explain to you in more detail which data is processed, why we have integrated YouTube videos and how you can manage or delete your data.

    What is YouTube?

    On YouTube, users can view videos, rate them, comment on them and upload them themselves free of charge. Over the past few years, YouTube has become one of the most important social media channels worldwide. In order for us to be able to display videos on our website, YouTube provides a code snippet that we have embedded on our site.

    Why do we use YouTube videos on our website?

    YouTube is the video platform with the most visitors and the best content. We strive to offer you the best possible user experience on our website. And of course interesting videos should not be missing. With the help of our embedded videos, we provide you with additional helpful content in addition to our texts and images. In addition, our website can be found more easily on the Google search engine thanks to the embedded videos. Even if we place advertisements via Google Ads, thanks to the data collected, Google can really only show these advertisements to people who are interested in our offers.

    Which data is stored by YouTube?

    As soon as you visit one of our pages that has a YouTube video installed, YouTube sets at least one cookie that stores your IP address and our URL. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can mostly use cookies to associate your interactions on our website with your profile. This includes data such as session duration, bounce rate, approximate location, technical information such as browser type, screen resolution or your Internet provider. Other data can be contact details, any ratings, sharing content via social media or adding it to your favorites on YouTube.

    If you are not signed into a Google account or a Youtube account, Google stores data with a unique identifier associated with your device, browser or app. For example, your preferred language setting is retained. But a lot of interaction data cannot be saved because fewer cookies are set.

    In the following list we show cookies that were set in a test in the browser. On the one hand, we show cookies that are set without a registered YouTube account. On the other hand, we show cookies that are set with a logged-in account. The list cannot claim to be complete because the user data always depends on the interactions on YouTube.

    How long and where is the data stored?

Under https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de see exactly where the Google data centers are located. Your data is distributed on the servers. This means that the data can be called up more quickly and is better protected against manipulation.

    Google stores the collected data for different lengths of time. You can delete some data at any time, others are automatically deleted after a limited period of time and others are stored by Google for a longer period of time. Some data (such as My Activity items, photos or documents, products) stored in your Google Account will remain stored until you delete it. Even if you're not signed into a Google Account, you can delete some data associated with your device, browser, or app.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

    In principle, you can delete data in the Google account manually. With the automatic deletion of location and activity data introduced in 2019, information is stored for either 3 or 18 months and then deleted, depending on your decision.

    Regardless of whether you have a Google account or not, you can configure your browser in such a way that Google cookies are deleted or deactivated. Depending on which browser you use, this works in different ways. The following instructions show how to manage cookies in your browser:

    Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome

    Safari: Managing Cookies and Website Data with Safari

    Firefox: Clear cookies to remove data websites have placed on your computer

    Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies

    Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies

    If you generally do not want any cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set.

    We have installed the YouTube subscribe button on our website. You can usually recognize the button by the classic YouTube logo. The logo shows the words "Subscribe" or "YouTube" in white letters on a red background and the white "Play" symbol to the left of it. However, the button can also be shown in a different design.

    Our YouTube channel always offers you funny, interesting or exciting videos. With the built-in "subscribe button" you can subscribe to our channel directly from our website and do not have to call up the YouTube website separately. We want to make it as easy as possible for you to access our comprehensive content. Please note that this allows YouTube to store and process data from you.

    If you see a built-in subscribe button on our site, YouTube sets at least one cookie, according to Google. This cookie stores your IP address and our URL. YouTube can also find out information about your browser, your approximate location and your default language in this way. In our test, the following four cookies were set without being logged in to YouTube:

    Surname: YSC

    Expiry date: after 8 months

    Annotation: These cookies were set after a test and cannot claim to be complete.

    If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can store many of your actions/interactions on our website using cookies and assign them to your YouTube account. This gives YouTube information, for example, on how long you surf our site, what type of browser you use, what screen resolution you prefer or what actions you take.

    YouTube uses this data on the one hand to improve its own services and offers and on the other hand to provide analyzes and statistics for advertisers (who use Google Ads).

    Twitter Privacy Policy

    We have integrated functions from Twitter on our website. These are, for example, embedded tweets, timelines, buttons or hashtags. Twitter is a short message service and social media platform operated by Twitter Inc., One Cumberland Place, Fenian Street, Dublin 2 D02 AX07, Ireland.

    As far as we know, in the European Economic Area and in Switzerland, the mere integration of the Twitter function does not transfer any personal data or data about your web activities to Twitter. Only when you interact with the Twitter functions, such as clicking on a button, can data be sent to Twitter, stored and processed there. We have no influence on this data processing and bear no responsibility. As part of this data protection declaration, we want to give you an overview of what data Twitter stores, what Twitter does with this data and how you can largely protect yourself from data transmission.

    What is Twitter?

    For some, Twitter is a news service, for others a social media platform, and still others speak of a microblogging service. All of these terms have their place and mean more or less the same thing.

    Both private individuals and companies use Twitter to communicate with interested people via short messages. Twitter only allows 280 characters per message. These messages are called "tweets". Unlike Facebook, for example, the service does not focus on expanding a network for “friends”, but wants to be understood as a worldwide and open news platform. You can also have an anonymous account on Twitter and tweets can be deleted by the company on the one hand and by the users themselves on the other.

    Why do we use Twitter on our website?

    Like many other websites and companies, we try to offer our services and services through different channels and to communicate with our customers. Twitter, in particular, has become dear to us as a useful “small” news service. Again and again we tweet or retweet exciting, funny or interesting content. We realize that you can't follow every channel separately. After all, you have other things to do as well. That is why we have also included Twitter functions on our website. You can experience our Twitter activity 'on the spot' or follow a direct link to our Twitter page. With the integration, we want to strengthen our service and user-friendliness on our website.

    What data does Twitter store?

    On some of our subpages you will find the built-in Twitter functions. If you interact with the Twitter content, such as clicking on a button, Twitter can collect and store data. Even if you don't have a Twitter account yourself. Twitter calls this data “log data”. This includes demographic data, browser cookie IDs, your smartphone ID, hashed email addresses, and information about which pages you have visited on Twitter and what actions you have taken. Of course, Twitter stores more data if you have a Twitter account and are logged in. This storage is mostly done via cookies. Cookies are small text files that are usually set in your browser and transmit various information to Twitter.

    We will now show you which cookies are set if you are not logged in to Twitter but visit a website with built-in Twitter functions. Please consider this list as an example. Under no circumstances can we guarantee completeness here, since the choice of cookies is always changing and depends on your individual actions with the Twitter content.

    These cookies were used in our test:

    Surname: personalization_id
    Value: “v1_cSJIsogU51SeE321153554”
    Purpose of use: This cookie stores information about how you use the website and which advertisements may have brought you to Twitter.
    Expiry Date: after 2 years

    Surname: long

    Expiry Date: after 6 hours

    Surname: _twitter_sess
    Value: 53D%253D–dd0248321153554-
    Purpose of use: With this cookie you can use functions within the Twitter website.
    Expiry Date: after the session ends

    Annotation: Twitter also works with third parties. That's why we also recognized the three Google Analytics cookies _ga, _gat, _gid in our test.

    On the one hand, Twitter uses the collected data to better understand user behavior and thus to improve its own services and advertising offers, on the other hand, the data is also used for internal security measures.

    How long and where is the data stored?

    If Twitter collects data from other websites, it will be deleted, aggregated or otherwise hidden after a maximum of 30 days. The Twitter servers are located at various server centers in the United States. It can therefore be assumed that the data collected will be collected and stored in America. After our research, we were not able to determine for sure whether Twitter also has its own servers in Europe. In principle, Twitter can store the collected data until it is no longer useful for the company, you delete the data or there is a legal deletion period.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

    In its data protection guidelines, Twitter repeatedly emphasizes that it does not store any data from external website visits if you or your browser are located in the European Economic Area or Switzerland. However, if you interact directly with Twitter, Twitter will of course also store your data.

    If you have a Twitter account, you can manage your information by clicking "More" under the "Profile" button. Then click on “Settings and data protection”. Here you can manage the data processing individually.

    If you don't have a Twitter account, you can Go to twitter.com and then click on "Personalization". You can manage the data you have collected under the item "Individualization and data".

    As mentioned above, most data is stored via cookies and you can manage, deactivate or delete them in your browser. Please note that you only “edit” the cookies in the browser you have chosen. This means: if you use a different browser in the future, you will have to manage your cookies there again according to your wishes. Here are the instructions on how to manage cookies for the most popular browsers.

    Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome

    Safari: Managing Cookies and Website Data with Safari

    Firefox: Clear cookies to remove data websites have placed on your computer

    Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies

    Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies

    You can also manage your browser so that you are informed of each individual cookie. Then you can always decide individually whether you allow a cookie or not.

    Twitter also uses the data for personalized advertising inside and outside of Twitter. You can switch off personalized advertising in the settings under "Individualization and data". If you use Twitter on a browser, you can see personalized advertising at http://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2&lang=EN deactivate.

    Twitter is an active participant in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework. This framework ensures correct data transmission between the USA and the European Union. Under https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TORzAAO to learn more.

    We hope we have given you a basic overview of data processing by Twitter. We do not receive any data from Twitter and are not responsible for what Twitter does with your data. If you have any further questions on this topic, we recommend that you read the Twitter data protection declaration at https://twitter.com/de/privacy .

    LinkedIn Privacy Policy

    On our website we use social plug-ins from the social media network LinkedIn, the company LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The social plug-ins can be feeds, content sharing or linking to our LinkedIn page. The social plug-ins are clearly marked with the well-known LinkedIn logo and allow, for example, interesting content to be shared directly via our website. LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company Wilton Place in Dublin is responsible for data processing in the European Economic Area and Switzerland.

    By embedding such plug-ins, data can be sent to LinkedIn, stored and processed there. In this data protection declaration, we want to inform you what data is involved, how the network uses this data and how you can manage or prevent data storage.

    What is LinkedIn?

    LinkedIn is the largest social network for business contacts. Unlike Facebook, for example, the company focuses exclusively on establishing business contacts. Companies can present services and products on the platform and establish business relationships. Many people also use LinkedIn to look for a job or to find suitable employees for their own company. In Germany alone, the network has over 11 million members. In Austria there are about 1.3 million.

    Why do we use LinkedIn on our website?

    We know how busy you are. You can't track all social media channels individually. Even if, as in our case, it would be worth it. Because we keep posting interesting news or reports that are worth spreading. That is why we have created the possibility on our website to share interesting content directly on LinkedIn or to refer directly to our LinkedIn page. We consider built-in social plug-ins as an extended service on our website. The data that LinkedIn collects also helps us to only show possible advertising measures to people who are interested in our offer.

    What data does LinkedIn store?

    LinkedIn does not store any personal data simply by integrating the social plug-ins. LinkedIn calls this data generated by plug-ins passive impressions. However, if you click on a social plug-in, for example to share our content, the platform saves personal data as so-called "active impressions". This is regardless of whether you have a LinkedIn account or not. If you are logged in, the data collected will be assigned to your account.

    Your browser establishes a direct connection to the LinkedIn servers when you interact with our plug-ins. The company logs various usage data. In addition to your IP address, this can be, for example, registration data, device information or information about your Internet or mobile phone provider. If you call up LinkedIn services via your smartphone, your location can also be determined (after you have allowed this). LinkedIn may also share this data in "hashed" form with third-party advertisers. Hashing means converting a record into a string. This allows the data to be encrypted in such a way that people can no longer be identified.

    Most data about your user behavior is stored in cookies. These are small text files that are usually placed in your browser. However, LinkedIn may also use web beacons, pixel tags, display tags and other device identifiers.

    Various tests also show which cookies are set when a user interacts with a social plug-in. The data found cannot claim to be complete and is only used as an example. The following cookies were set without being logged in to LinkedIn:

    Surname: cookie
    Value: =2&34aab2aa-2ae1-4d2a-8baf-c2e2d7235c16321153554-

    Purpose of use: This cookie is a security cookie. LinkedIn describes it as a secure browser ID cookie.
    Expiry Date: after 2 years

    Surname: fid
    Value: AQHj7Ii23ZBcqAAAA…
    Purpose of use: No further information could be found for this cookie.
    Expiry Date: after 7 days

    Annotation: LinkedIn also works with third parties. That's why we also recognized the three Google Analytics cookies _ga and _gat in our test.

    How long and where is the data stored?

    In principle, LinkedIn retains your personal data for as long as the company deems necessary to offer its own services. However, LinkedIn will delete your personal data when you delete your account. In some exceptional cases, LinkedIn retains some data in aggregated and anonymous form even after you delete your account. Once you delete your account, other people will no longer be able to see your data within a day. LinkedIn generally deletes the data within 30 days. However, LinkedIn retains data if it is necessary for legal reasons. Data that can no longer be assigned to a person will remain stored even after the account has been closed. The data is stored on various servers in America and probably also in Europe.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

    You have the right to access and delete your personal data at any time. You can manage, change and delete your data in your LinkedIn account. You can also request a copy of your personal data from LinkedIn.

    To access account information on your LinkedIn profile:

    On LinkedIn, click on your profile icon and select the “Settings and Privacy” section. Now click on "Privacy" and then in the section "How LinkedIn uses your data" on "Change". In just a short time you can download selected data about your web activity and your account history.

    You also have the option in your browser to prevent data processing by LinkedIn. As mentioned above, LinkedIn stores most of the data via cookies that are set in your browser. You can manage, disable or delete these cookies. Depending on which browser you have, the administration works a little differently. The instructions for the most common browsers can be found here:

    Chrome: Delete, enable and manage cookies in Chrome

    Safari: Managing Cookies and Website Data with Safari

    Firefox: Clear cookies to remove data websites have placed on your computer

    Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies

    Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies

    You can also basically set up your browser in such a way that you are always informed when a cookie is to be set. Then you can always decide individually whether you want to allow the cookie or not.

    LinkedIn is an active participant in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework. This framework ensures correct data transmission between the USA and the European Union. Learn more at https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000L0UZAA0 . We have tried to give you the most important information about data processing by LinkedIn.

    Pinterest Privacy Policy

    On our website we use buttons and widgets from the social media network Pinterest, owned by Pinterest Inc., 808 Brannan Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA.

    By calling up pages that use such functions, data (IP address, browser data, date and time, cookies) are transmitted to Pinterest, stored and evaluated.

    The privacy policy, what information Pinterest collects and how they use it can be found at https://policy.pinterest.com/de/privacy-policy .

    XING data protection declaration

    On our website we use social plugins from the social media network Xing, the company Xing SE, Dammtorstraße 30, 20354 Hamburg, Germany. With these functions, you can, for example, share content directly on Xing via our website, log in via Xing or follow interesting content. You can recognize the plug-ins by the company name or the Xing logo. If you call up a website that uses a Xing plug-in, data can be transmitted to the "Xing server", stored and evaluated. In this data protection declaration, we want to inform you about what data is involved and how you can manage or prevent this data storage.

    What is Xing?

    Xing is a social network headquartered in Hamburg. The company specializes in managing professional contacts. In other words, unlike other networks, Xing is primarily about professional networking. The platform is often used for job hunting or to find employees for your own company. In addition, Xing offers interesting content on various professional topics. The global counterpart to this is the American company LinkedIn.

    Why do we use Xing on our website?

    There is now a flood of social media channels and we are well aware that your time is very valuable. Not every social media channel of a company can be scrutinized closely. That's why we want to make your life as easy as possible so that you can share or follow interesting content directly from our website on Xing. With such "social plug-ins" we expand our service on our website. In addition, the data collected by Xing helps us to carry out targeted advertising measures on the platform. This means that our service is only shown to people who are really interested in it.

    Which data is stored by Xing?

    Xing offers the share button, the follow button and the log-in button as plugins for websites. As soon as you open a page where a Xing social plug-in is installed, your browser connects to servers in a data center used by Xing. In the case of the share button - according to Xing - no data should be stored that could derive a direct reference to a person. In particular, Xing does not store any of your IP addresses. Furthermore, no cookies are set in connection with the share button. This means that there is no evaluation of your user behavior. For more information, visit https://www.xing.com/app/share%3Fop%3Ddata_protection.

    With the other Xing plug-ins, cookies are only set in your browser when you interact with the plug-in or click on it. Personal data such as your IP address, browser data, date and time of your page view on Xing can be stored here. If you have a XING account and are logged in, the data collected will be assigned to your personal account and the data stored in it.

    The following cookies are set in your browser if you click on the follow or log-in button and are not yet logged in to Xing. Please keep in mind that this is an example list and we cannot claim to be complete:

    Expiry Date: after the session ends

Xing also passes on personal data to third parties if this is necessary for the fulfillment of our own business purposes, if you have given your consent or if there is a legal obligation.

    How long and where is the data stored?

    Xing stores the data on various servers in various data centers. The company stores this data until you delete the data or until a user account is deleted. Of course, this only applies to users who are already Xing members.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

    You have the right to access and delete your personal data at any time. Even if you are not a Xing member, you can prevent possible data processing via your browser or manage it according to your wishes. Most data is stored via cookies.

    Vimeo Privacy Policy

    We also use videos from Vimeo on our website. The video portal is operated by Vimeo LLC, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA. With the help of a plug-in, we can show you interesting video material directly on our website. Certain data can be transferred from you to Vimeo. In this data protection declaration, we will show you what data is involved, why we use Vimeo and how you can manage or prevent your data and data transmission.

    What is Vimeo?

    Vimeo is a video platform that was founded in 2004 and has been providing HD quality video streaming since 2007. Since 2015 it has also been possible to stream in 4k Ultra HD. The portal can be used free of charge, but paid content can also be published. Compared to the market leader YouTube, Vimeo prioritises high-quality content. On the one hand, the portal offers a lot of artistic content such as music videos and short films, but on the other hand, it also contains interesting documentation on a wide variety of topics.

    Why do we use Vimeo on our website?

    The aim of our website is to provide you with the best possible content. And as easily accessible as possible. Only when we have managed that are we satisfied with our service. The video service Vimeo helps us to achieve this goal. Vimeo offers us the opportunity to present you with high-quality content directly on our website. Instead of just giving you a link to an interesting video, you can watch the video right away with us. This expands our service and makes it easier for you to access interesting content. In addition to our texts and images, we also offer video content.

    What data is stored on Vimeo?

    When you visit a website on our website that has an embedded Vimeo video, your browser connects to the Vimeo servers. This results in a data transfer. This data is collected, stored and processed on the Vimeo servers. Regardless of whether you have a Vimeo account or not, Vimeo collects data about you. This includes your IP address, technical information about your browser type, your operating system or very basic device information. Furthermore, Vimeo stores information about which website you use the Vimeo service and what actions (web activities) you perform on our website. These web activities include, for example, session duration, bounce rate or which button you clicked on our website with the built-in Vimeo function. Vimeo can track and store these actions using cookies and similar technologies.

    If you are logged in to Vimeo as a registered member, more data can usually be collected because more cookies may have already been set in your browser. In addition, your actions on our website are linked directly to your Vimeo account. To prevent this, you must log out of Vimeo while "surfing" on our website.

    Below we show you cookies that are set by Vimeo when you are on a website with an integrated Vimeo function. This list is not exhaustive and assumes you do not have a Vimeo account.

    Name: player

    Annotation: These two cookies are always set as soon as you are on a website with an embedded Vimeo video. If you watch the video and click on the button, for example to “share” or “like” the video, further cookies will be set. These are also third-party cookies such as _ga or _gat_UA-76641-8 from Google Analytics or _fbp from Facebook. Exactly which cookies are set here depends on your interaction with the video.

    The following list shows an excerpt of possible cookies that are set when you interact with the Vimeo video:

    Surname: _abexps

    Vimeo uses this data, among other things, to improve its own service, to communicate with you and to set its own targeted advertising measures. Vimeo emphasizes on its website that only first-party cookies (i.e. cookies from Vimeo itself) are used for embedded videos as long as you do not interact with the video.

    How long and where is the data stored?

    Vimeo is headquartered in White Plains, New York State (USA). However, the services are offered worldwide. The company uses computer systems, databases and servers in the USA and also in other countries. Your data can therefore also be stored and processed on servers in America. The data remains stored at Vimeo until the company no longer has any economic reason for storing it. Then the data will be deleted or made anonymous. Vimeo complies with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and is therefore allowed to collect, use and transfer data from users from the EU to the USA.

    How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?
