6. Functionality and presentation of the website

6.1. Cookies

We use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.
Cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier for the cookie. It consists of a character string that can be used to assign Internet pages and servers to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish your individual browser from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.
By using cookies, we can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services. Information and offers on our website can be optimized for the user, for example by recognizing the user of the website. This means that access data does not have to be entered again every time the website is visited, as this is done by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system.
However, a distinction must be made when using cookies with regard to different purposes. Insofar as these small files are absolutely necessary in order to display the website correctly, their use is not voluntary. The legal basis for the integration of cookies in this case is Art. 6 (1) lit.f GDPR.
In addition, cookies are also used on the website for the purpose of analyzing user behavior or for marketing purposes. However, this use only takes place if you have given us your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR when you first accessed the website. However, you can prevent our website from setting cookies at any time by making the appropriate settings in the Internet browser you are using, thereby permanently objecting to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time using an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If the setting of cookies is deactivated in the Internet browser you are using, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

Below we have put together links where you can find detailed information on deactivating cookies in common browsers:

6.2. Server log files

The provider of our website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which are automatically transmitted to us by your browser. The following can be recorded:
• browser types and versions used,
• the operating system used by the accessing system,
• the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers),
• sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website,
• the date and time of access to the website,
• an Internet protocol address (IP address),
• the Internet service provider of the accessing system and
• other data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using this general data and information, we do not draw any conclusions about you. Rather, this information is required in order to
• correctly deliver the contents of our website,
• optimize the contents of our website and the advertising for it,
• ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website and
• to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. We therefore evaluate these data and information statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The processing is carried out within the scope of our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) f GDPR

9. Social media (LinkedIn)

9.1. Use of social media plugins

The website also uses the integration of the social media platform LinkedIn LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland. This platform sometimes contains buttons and plugins that transfer data to the operators of the respective network platform when the page is loaded, i.e. without any further activity on the part of the user.
Insight data analysis
The Conference of the Independent Data Protection Authorities of the Federal and State Governments (Data Protection Conference - DSK) has pointed out that LinkedIn is obliged to obtain effective consent to the use of data from all visitors to the LinkedIn page. The operators of a LinkedIn fan page, on the other hand, are obliged to obtain the necessary information about the use of data from LinkedIn.
When you visit our LinkedIn page, LinkedIn collects personal data of users within the scope and extent of its responsibility. Such data collection by LinkedIn can also occur from visitors to this website who are not logged in to LinkedIn or registered as members. Information about the data collection and further processing by LinkedIn as well as information about the implementation of your rights and decision-making options can be found in LinkedIn's privacy policy.
https://de.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy
By using the LinkedIn platform, we assume no responsibility for the processing of personal data and its transmission outside the European Union, in particular no responsibility for the implementation of the rights of those affected and the effectiveness of the consent.
We have no influence on the scope and no full access to the data collected or your profile data. You decide which information we receive within the scope of LinkedIn's exclusive responsibility with your LinkedIn settings or your browser settings when visiting a publicly accessible page. In addition, you have the option in your LinkedIn settings to actively hide your "likes" or to stop following the fan page. Then your profile will no longer appear in the list of fans of this fan page.
We receive anonymous statistics from LinkedIn on the use and utilization of the fan page. The following information is provided here, for example (so-called insight data):
• Followers: Number of people who follow our fan page - including growth and development over a defined time frame
• Reach: Number of people who see a specific post on our fan page and number of interactions on a post
• Ad performance: Number of people who have seen an ad
• Demographics: Average age of visitors, gender, place of residence, language
We use these statistics, from which we cannot draw any conclusions about individual users, to constantly improve our online offering on LinkedIn and to better respond to the interests of our users. We cannot link the statistical data with the profile data of our fans. You can use your LinkedIn settings to decide in what form targeted advertising is displayed to you.
We have entered into an agreement with LinkedIn regarding the processing of personal data between joint controllers in accordance with Article 26 GDPR.
Accordingly, LinkedIn is the sole controller for the processing of Insight data. In this regard, LinkedIn is responsible for fulfilling information obligations in accordance with Articles 12 and 13 GDPR, for exercising the rights of data subjects in accordance with Articles 15 to 22 GDPR, for data security and also for the responsibility for reporting data protection violations (Articles 32 to 34 GDPR). LinkedIn remains the sole controller for the processing of other personal data.
We receive personal data via LinkedIn if you actively communicate it to us via a personal message on LinkedIn or if you use a form to transmit the data to us and actively send the data to us by clicking on a button. We use the data you provide (e.g. first name, last name) to answer your request if this is necessary.

10. Analysis tools

Google Ads is an internet advertising service that allows advertisers to place ads both in Google's search engine results and in the Google advertising network. Google Ads allows an advertiser to pre-define certain keywords that will only display an ad in Google's search engine results when the user uses the search engine to retrieve a keyword-relevant search result. In the Google advertising network, the ads are distributed on topic-relevant websites using an automatic algorithm and taking into account the previously defined keywords.
If you access our website via a Google ad, Google will store a so-called conversion cookie on your system. A conversion cookie expires after thirty days and is not used to identify you. The conversion cookie is used, provided the cookie has not yet expired, to track whether certain subpages, such as the shopping cart of an online shop system, have been accessed on our website. The conversion cookie enables both us and Google to track whether you accessed our website via an Ads ad and generated sales, i.e. whether you completed or canceled a purchase.
The data and information collected through the use of the conversion cookie are used by Google to create visit statistics for our website. We use these visit statistics to determine the total number of users who were referred to us via Ads ads, i.e. to determine the success or failure of the respective Ads ad and to optimize our Ads ads for the future. Neither our company nor other Google Ads advertisers receive information from Google that could be used to identify you.
The conversion cookie is used to store personal information, such as the websites you visit. Each time you visit our website, personal data, including your IP address, is transferred to Google. This personal data is stored by Google.
You can find more information and Google's applicable data protection regulations at policies.google.com/privacy and policies.google.com/terms.
You can prevent cookies from being set at any time by making the appropriate settings in the Internet browser you are using, thereby permanently objecting to the setting of cookies. To do this, you can generally deactivate the automatic setting of cookies or specifically block cookies from the domain googleleadservices.com.
Furthermore, the data subject has the option of objecting to interest-based advertising by Google. To do so, please use the following link: adssettings.google.com/.

Information on the use of Google services in the so-called Consent Mode v2 (CMv2) from March 6, 2024

Below, we explain how your personal data is processed in connection with Google Consent Mode V2 (CMv2). CMv2 is a tool from Google that enables website operators to manage users' consent to the use of cookies and other tracking technologies.

The data processed as part of CMv2 is used to:
• Manage your consent decisions
• Offer you a personalized user experience
• Improve the performance of CMv2

The following data is processed as part of CMv2:
• Your IP address: This is used to determine your approximate location

ndort and to check the validity of your consent.
• Your browser type and operating system version: This information is used to ensure that CMv2 is compatible with your device.
• The URL of the website you are visiting: This information is used to determine which cookies should be set on the website.
• Your consent decisions: This information is stored to record whether you have consented to the use of cookies and other tracking technologies.
The data processed as part of CMv2 is stored for a period of 13 months.
As a website operator, we are a customer of Google Ireland Limited Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4. Ireland. Google acts as our data processor for Google Analytics. This is set out, among other things, in the data processing conditions for Google Ads
( https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/3379636?hl=de ).
Google Analytics is also considered a data processor within the meaning of the GDPR, as Google Analytics collects and processes personal data on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions. We are data controllers who can exercise all rights relating to the collection, access, storage and deletion of our customer data at any time. The use of data by Google is subject to the terms of the respective contracts between Google Analytics and us as customers, as well as the settings that we make via the product's user interface.
The Google CMv2 is primarily used to control Google tags that are used to display the individual Google services. It makes it possible to adapt these tags depending on whether or not consent has been given for Google cookies/tools via the consent banner (cookie banner). Google provides an overview of the two variants of Consent Mode here and here.
Google tags for the following products have built-in consent checks and adapt functionality based on consent status:
• Google Tag
• Google Analytics
• Google Ads*
• Floodlight
• Conversion Link
* supports conversion tracking and segments with self-collected data; support for call conversions pending.

Basically, there are two integration options:
• Basic Mode:
When consent is given to Google services via the Consent Tool, the Google tags are controlled directly, the Consent Mode APIs are executed and the corresponding cookies are set.
The tags send the consent statuses to Google in the following order:
1. Standard status for consent
2. Updated statuses for consent
If you as a user do not give consent, no data is transferred to Google - not even the consent status. The triggering of Google tags is completely blocked. In this case, the conversion modeling for the consent mode in Google Ads is based on a general model.
If all services are rejected, the Google tags are blocked. However, in Basic Mode, users' IP addresses can be transferred to Google (more information here). The IP addresses are shortened immediately after collection or only transmitted and stored in an anonymized form.
Advanced Mode (extended consent mode):
The advanced implementation enables us to carry out better data modeling compared to the simple implementation.
When using Advanced Mode - even if all Google services are rejected in the consent banner - so-called pings from Google are used to record user activities (information on the device type, user country, browser and conversion data).
Google tags are loaded when a user visits the website or opens the app.
The Consent Mode APIs are loaded via the tags and the following is done:
1. Setting the default status for consent. If no individual settings have been specified, consent is refused by default.
Even if consent is refused, pings without cookies are sent via the Google tags.

2. Wait for a user's consent decision and update the consent status:
The complete measurement data is only transmitted via Google tags if the user gives his consent to the data collection. Further information
As this includes information that is stored in the user's device, the legal basis is Section 25 Paragraph 1 TTDDG and consent is therefore required for access and transmission of this information. This applies regardless of whether it is personal data or not.
The Google CMv2 is, as already mentioned, primarily used for data collection. 

creation of Google tags through which the individual Google services are displayed. It enables these tags to be adapted depending on whether consent for Google cookies/tools has been given via the consent banner (cookie banner) or not.
