The tracking measures listed below and used by us are based on Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f DSGVO. With the tracking measures to be used, we want to ensure a needs-based design and the continuous optimization of our website. On the other hand, we use the tracking measures to statistically record the use of our website and evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing our offer for you. These interests are to be regarded as justified within the meaning of the aforementioned provision.

The respective data processing purposes and data categories can be found in the corresponding tracking tools.

a) Google Analytics

For the purpose of customizing and continually optimizing our pages, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (https://www.google.com/intl/en/about/) (1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, hereafter "Google"). In this context, pseudonymised usage profiles are created and cookies (see point 4) are used.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website such as

  • Browser type / version
  • Used operating system
  • Referrer URL (the previously visited page)
  • Host name of the accessing computer (IP address)
  • Time of the server request

are transmitted to a Google server in the US and stored there.

The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide further services related to website activity and internet usage for the purposes of market research and for designing these websites as required. This information may also be transferred to third parties if required by law or if third parties process this data in the order. Under no circumstances will your IP address be merged with any other data provided by Google. The IP addresses are anonymized, so that an assignment is not possible (IP masking).

You can prevent the installation of cookies by setting the browser software accordingly; however, we point out that in this case not all features of this website may be fully exploited.

You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing a browser add-on (https: // tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).

As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent detection by Google Analytics by clicking on this link (please activate when programming). An opt-out cookie will be set that will prevent the future collection of your data when you visit this website. The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you must set the opt-out cookie again.

For more information about privacy related to Google Analytics, see the Google Analytics Help Center (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/ 6004245? Hl = DE).

b) Firebase and the Google Cloud Platform

Our apps use Google Firebase technology (Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, "Google"). Firebase is part of the Google Cloud Platform and offers many services to developers. A list can be found here: https://firebase.google.com/terms/. Some Firebase services process personal information. In most cases, the personal data is limited to so-called "instance IDs" that are time-stamped. Firebase's Instance IDs are unique, allowing you to link different events or processes. These data are neither personally identifiable information nor do we make efforts to personalize it afterwards. We process this summarized data for the analysis and optimization of the usage behavior, as for example by the evaluation of crash reports.

In addition to the "Instance ID" described above, Google also uses the advertising ID of the device for Firebase Analytics. In the device settings of your mobile device you can limit the use of the advertising ID.

For Android: Settings> Google> Ads> Reset Advertising ID

For iOS: Settings> Privacy> Advertising> No Ad Tracking

Firebase Cloud Messaging is used to deliver push messages or so-called in-app messages (messages that only appear within the app). In this case, the terminal is assigned a pseudonymized push reference, which serves as the destination for the push messages or in-app messages. The push messages can be deactivated in the settings of the terminal at any time and also activated again.

We do not use Firebase services that use personally identifiable information, such as IP addresses, e-mail addresses, telephone numbers or passwords. For more information on Firebase privacy and security, please visit: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy/ If possible, we will use servers with a location within the EU. However, it can not be ruled out that data will also be transmitted to the USA. Google has joined the EU-US Privacy Shield, a data protection agreement between the EU and the US. For more information about Google Firebase and privacy, visit https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/ and https://firebase.google.com/.

In addition, we have signed several contracts with Google for order data processing. In it, Google commits itself to protect the data of our users, according to their privacy policy on our behalf to process and in particular not to third parties.

You may object to the setting or processing of cookies and the associated profiling through our website, as described above.

c) reCAPTCHA

To protect your requests via the internet form, we use the reCAPTCHA service of Google Inc. (Google). The query is used to distinguish whether the input is made by a human or abusive by automated, mechanical processing. The query includes the sending of the IP address and any other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. For this purpose, your input will be transmitted to Google and used there. However, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address sent by your browser as part of reCaptcha will not be merged with other data provided by Google. This data is subject to the deviating privacy policies of Google. For more information about Google's Privacy Policy, please visit https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.

On our website social media plugins from Facebook are used to personalize their use, such as Acount Kit. For this we use the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button. It is an offer from Facebook.

If you visit a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted by Facebook directly to your browser and incorporated by him into the website.

By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are currently not logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted from your browser directly to a Facebook server in the US and stored there.

If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to our website directly to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by pressing the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information will also be posted on Facebook and displayed to your Facebook friends.

Facebook may use this information for the purpose of advertising, market research and tailor-made Facebook pages. For this purpose, Facebook uses user, interest and relationship profiles, eg. For example, to evaluate your use of our website in relation to the advertisements displayed on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website, and to provide other services related to the use of Facebook.

If you do not want Facebook to assign the data collected via our website to your Facebook account, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website.

The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as your related rights and settings options for the protection of your privacy, please refer to the privacy policy ( and https://www.accountkit.com/faq/?locale=en_US) of Facebook.
