Google Analytics: This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service that uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website usage and internet usage to us. We use Google Analytics to analyze and regularly improve the use of our website. With the statistics we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics for a cross-device analysis of visitor traffic conducted via a user ID. You can disable the cross-device analysis of your use in your customer account under “My Data”, “Personal Information”.

Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords): We use Google Ads in order to draw attention to our products and services with the help of advertising (so-called Google Ads) on external web pages. In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. To do this, we use ad server cookies, from which certain performance metrics such as ads or user clicks can be measured. If you access our website through a Google ad, Google Ads will store a cookie on your device. These cookies allow Google to recognize your internet browser. We do not collect and process any personal data as part of this process.

Google Remarketing: In addition to Ads Conversion, we use the Google remarketing application, which enables you to see our ads after visiting our website as you continue to use the internet. This is done by means of cookies stored in your browser, through which your usage behavior when visiting various websites is recorded and evaluated by Google. With the use of remarketing, information about your browsing behavior is collected for marketing purposes in anonymous form and stored on your computer using cookies.

Google Campaign Manager (formerly Google DoubleClick): This website uses the online marketing tool Campaign Manager by Google. Campaign Manager uses cookies to place ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads multiple times. Campaign Manager cookies (DoubleClick Floodlight) help us to understand whether you complete certain actions on our website after viewing any of our display/video ads on Google or other platforms through Campaign Manager or clicking through one of these ads (conversion tracking). Campaign Manager applies this cookie to understand the content with which you have interacted on our website to be able to send you targeted advertising later on.

Google reCAPTCHA: This website uses Google reCAPTCHA to check whether the data entered on our website (such as on a contact form) has been entered by a human or by an automated program (“bots”). reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. This service allows Google to determine from which website your request has been sent and from which IP address the reCAPTCHA input box has been used. In addition to your IP address, Google may collect other information necessary to provide and guarantee this service.

Google Maps: This website uses Google Maps to display our location and to provide directions (e.g. via our store finder and event calendars). To enable the display of certain fonts on our website, a connection to the Google server in the USA is established whenever our website is accessed. If you access the Google Maps components integrated into our website, Google will store a cookie on your device via your browser. All user settings and data are processed to display a location and describe a certain route. By connecting to Google in this way, Google can determine from which website your request has been sent and to which IP address the directions are transmitted.

Google Fonts: This website uses Google Fonts to display external fonts. For this purpose, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly, which requires your browser to establish a direct connection to Google Servers. Google can identify the website from which your request has been sent and to which IP address the fonts are being transmitted for display.

YOUTUBE

We have also incorporated YouTube videos into our websites. The videos are stored at www.youtube.com and can be played directly from our websites. These videos are incorporated in such a way that no personal data related to you as the user is sent to YouTube if you do not play the videos.
