We use the Google Analytics web analytics service provided by 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. To this end, Google will use the information obtained on behalf of the operator of this website for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. 
In this context, the following information may be collected, among others: IP address, date and time of page view, click path, information about the browser you are using and the device you are using (device), pages visited, referrer URL (website from which you accessed our website), location data, purchase activity. Your data may be linked by Google to other data, such as your search history, your personal accounts, your usage data from other devices, and any other data Google may have about you.

Use of Google Ads conversion tracking
Our website uses the online marketing program "Google Ads", including conversion tracking (evaluation of user actions). Google conversion tracking is a service operated by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; "Google").
If you click on adverts placed by Google, a cookie is placed on your computer for conversion tracking. These cookies have limited validity, do not contain any personal data and thus cannot be used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognise that you have clicked on the advert and were forwarded to this page. Every Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. It is therefore not possible to track cookies relating to the websites of Ads customers.
The information collected using the conversion cookie serves the purpose of producing conversion statistics. This allows us to find out the total number of users who have clicked on our adverts and were forwarded to a page equipped with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which could be used to personally identify users. 
We use the extended implementation of the consent mode (Advanced Consent Mode). In this case, user data is transmitted to Google in the form of “pings” even if consent has not been granted. These pings may contain the following information, among others: IP address to derive the IP country (the IP address is not logged), date and time of the page view, URL of the pages visited, user agent, referrer URL (website from which you accessed our website) or information about the triggering of website events such as a conversion. On the basis of this information, Google models user data in order to be able to carry out a comprehensive usage analysis despite the refusal of consent.
Your data may be transmitted to Google LLC servers in the USA. For the USA, there is an adequacy decision of the EU Commission, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). Google has certified itself in accordance with the TADPF and has thus undertaken to comply with European data protection principles.

Our website uses Microsoft Advertising from Microsoft Corporation (Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA; "Microsoft").
The processing of data serves the purposes of marketing and advertising and the purpose of measuring the success of the advertising measures (conversion tracking). This allows us to find out the total number of users who have clicked on our adverts and were forwarded to a page equipped with a conversion tracking tag. It is, however, not possible to identify this user personally through this process. Microsoft Advertising uses technology such as cookies and tracking pixels which make it possible to analyse your use of the website. If you click on adverts placed by Microsoft Advertising, a cookie is placed on your computer for conversion tracking. This cookie has limited validity and cannot be used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Microsoft can recognise that you have clicked on the advert and were forwarded to this page. In this process the following information, inter alia, can be collected: IP address, identifiers (indicators) assigned by Microsoft, information on the browser and device you are using, Referrer URL (website via which you accessed our website), URL of our website.

It does, however, enable the triggering of further tags which may collect and process personal data. You can find more detailed information on the terms and conditions of use and data protection at https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html

 

Use of Wordfence
We use the Wordfence security plugin from Defiant Inc. (00 5th Ave Ste 4100, Seattle, WA 98104, USA "Wordfence") on our website as part of order processing. Data processing is used in particular to protect against viruses and malware, to detect and defend against brute force and DDoS attacks. For this purpose, Wordfence uses cookies to categorise website visitors as questionable or harmless. For this purpose, the IP address of the website visitor is stored on the Wordfence servers. IP addresses classified as harmless are placed on a whitelist. Dubious IP addresses, on the other hand, are placed on a blacklist. For this purpose, our website establishes a permanent connection to the Wordfence servers so that Wordfence can compare its databases with the access requests sent to our website and block them if necessary.
Your data will be transmitted to the USA. For the USA, there is an adequacy decision of the EU Commission, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). Wordfence is not certified under the TADPF.

Friendly Captcha (Bot/spam protection)

We use the “Friendly Captcha” service on our website (www.friendlycaptcha.com).

This service is provided by Friendly Captcha GmbH, Am Anger 3-5, 82237 Woerthsee, Germany.

Friendly Captcha is a new type of privacy-friendly security solution to make it increasingly difficult for automated programs and scripts (so-called “bots”) to use our website.
For this purpose, we have integrated a program code from Friendly Captcha into our website (e.g. for contact forms) so that the visitor’s end device can establish a connection to Friendly Captcha’s servers in order to receive a computational task from Friendly Captcha. The visitor’s end device solves the computational task, which requires certain system resources, and sends the computational results to our web server. Our server contacts the Friendly Captcha server via an API and receives a response stating whether the puzzle was solved correctly by the end device. Depending on the result, we can apply security rules to requests via our website and thus, for example, further process or reject them.

The data is used exclusively for the protection against spam and bots as described above.

Friendly Captcha does not set or read cookies on the visitor’s end device.

IP addresses are only stored in hashed (one-way encrypted) form and do not allow us and Friendly Captcha to draw any conclusions about an individual person.

If personal data is stored, this data will be deleted after 30 days.

The legal basis for the processing is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR in protecting our website against abusive access by bots, i.e. spam protection and protection against attacks (e.g. mass requests).

Further information on data protection when using Friendly Captcha can be found at https://friendlycaptcha.com/legal/privacy-end-users/.

Bootstrap CDN is a public content delivery network (CDN) for the provision of content. Bootstrap CDN users can load CSS, JavaScript and images remotely from their servers. The use or integration of Bootstrap CDN is necessary for the purposes mentioned to safeguard our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

If Java Script is activated in your browser and no (Java) Script blocker is installed, your browser will transmit personal data (e.g. your IP address and browser) to Bootstrap CDN when you load our website.

This means that when you visit our website, program libraries are retrieved from servers of the provider Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, and downloaded from Google’s content delivery network. Personal data (e.g. your IP address and browser) is transferred to Google in the process. The use or integration of jQuery is necessary for the purposes mentioned to safeguard our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

1. general scope and description of data processing

We use FAST to correctly allocate the success of an advertising medium. The data is automatically deleted after 90 days. No profiling takes place. FAST uses a unique key that third parties cannot assign and therefore users cannot be traced. Personalized advertising is not possible with FAST.

FAST establishes a connection between a click on an advertising medium, e.g. an advertisement, and an action, e.g. a purchase or a login or registration.

The information transmitted to us serves the sole purpose of correctly allocating the success of an advertising medium and the corresponding billing.

FAST does not store any cookies or cookie-like data on your end device.

When generating the device fingerprint, only non-personal parameters are merged (browser settings, time zone, CPU class, color depth, browser language, etc.).

 

2. scope and description of the processing of data when using Google Ads / Microsoft Ads

During a campaign, the order number and the shopping cart value of the order are usually also transmitted and stored by us for 90 days. Personal data such as name, telephone number or address are expressly not recorded or stored.

The following values may also be transmitted:

– ID (consecutive number)

– ClickID

– Time of purchase

– Currency

– Conversion name (store order or lead)

The device fingerprint is processed on the server of the respective customer. Insofar as integration takes place via Google Tag Manager, the device fingerprint is processed via the Smarketer Host Europe server in Strasbourg.

Thanks to high security standards, such as an HTTPS connection, the conversion data is sent on our HOST-Europe server located in Strasbourg. The transfer of the export file and the processing of the data (ClickID, conversion name, timestamp, order value, currency) takes place in accordance with Google Ads / Microsoft Ads on an American server.

The software is set up so that no profiling takes place.
