In order to evaluate newsletter campaigns, the

links. Within this context, your
personal data such as IP address, browser type and device as well as the time of opening may also be
collected. From this data, user profiles
can be created under a pseudonym. The data collected will not be used to identify you personally. The
collected data is only used for
statistical analysis to improve newsletter campaigns.
The processing of your personal data is based
on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR from our overriding legitimate interest in a targeted, effective
advertising and user-friendly newsletter system.
On grounds relating to your particular situation, you have the right to object at any time to this

Analysis / Advertising tracking / Partner program
Use of Google Analytics 4
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.
Your IP address will first be truncated by us
on our own servers. Google thus only receives pseudonymised data.
Use of Meta Pixel
We use Meta Pixel from Meta Platforms Ireland
Limited (4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland; "Meta") on our
website.
Meta and we are jointly responsible for the
collection of your data and the transfer of this data to Meta when the service is integrated. The
basis for this is an agreement between us and Meta on the joint processing of personal data, in which the
respective responsibilities are
defined. The agreement is available at https://de-de.facebook.com/legal/terms/businesstools According to this agreement, we are responsible
in particular for the fulfilment of the information obligations in accordance with Arts 13 and 14 GDPR, for
compliance with the security
requirements of Art. 32 GDPR with regard to the correct technical implementation and configuration of the
service, and for compliance with the
obligations in accordance with Arts 33 and 34 GDPR, insofar as a violation of the protection of personal
data affects our obligations under the
agreement on joint processing. Meta is responsible for enabling the rights of the data subject in accordance
with Arts 15-20 GDPR, for
complying with the security requirements of Art. 32 GDPR with regard to the security of the service, and for
complying with the obligations of
Arts 33 and 34 GDPR, insofar as a breach of personal data protection concerns Meta's obligations under the
joint processing agreement.
The application serves to address the visitor
to the website with interest-related advertising on the social networks Facebook and Instagram. We have
implemented Meta’s remarketing tag on our website for this purpose. This tag sets up a direct connection to
Meta’s servers when
you visit our website. This informs the Meta server which of our web pages you have visited. Meta assigns
this information to your personal
Facebook and/or Instagram user account. When you visit the social networks Facebook or Instagram, you will
then be shown personalised,
interest-related ads.
The application also serves the purpose of
creating conversion statistics. This allows us to find out the total number of users who have clicked
our adverts and were forwarded to a page equipped with a conversion tracking tag as well as what actions are
taken after being redirected to
this website. However, they do not receive any information which could be used to personally identify
users.
Your data may be transmitted to the USA. For
the USA, there is an adequacy decision of the EU Commission, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy
Framework (TADPF). Meta has certified itself in accordance with the TADPF and has thus undertaken to comply
with European data
protection principles.
The processing of your personal data is carried
out with your consent on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can withdraw your
consent at any time without affecting the legality of the processing carried out with your consent up to the
withdrawal.
For this purpose, you can deactivate the
remarketing function “Custom Audiences”. You can find more detailed information on Meta’s
collection and use of data and your associated rights and options for protecting your privacy in Meta’s
privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.
Use of the ADCELL partner program
We use the "ADCELL" partner program of
Firstlead GmbH (Rosenfelder Str. 15-16, 10315 Berlin; "ADCELL").
ADCELL and we are jointly responsible for the
collection of your data and the transmission of this data to ADCELL when you integrate the
service. An agreement between us and ADCELL on the joint processing of personal data constitutes the basis
for this. The agreement is
available at https://www.adcell.de/datenverarbeitung
Accordingly, we and ADCELL are equally responsible for the fulfilment of the obligations
under the GDPR, in particular for the fulfilment of the information obligations under Art. 13, 14 GDPR and
granting of data subject rights under
Art. 15 - 21 GDPR.
If you click on adverts with a partner link,
ADCELL places a cookie on your computer for conversion tracking. These cookies ensure the
correct billing for the partner program by recording the success of an advert. Cookies identify the fact
that you have clicked on an advert and
can track the origin of the order with the advertiser. ADCELL also uses tracking pixels. These enable
information such as the number of
visitors to the pages of the website to be analysed.
The information generated by the cookies and
tracking pixels about the use of this website (including the IP address) and delivery of
advertising formats is transferred to an ADCELL server and stored there. ADCELL can also identify that the
partner link was clicked on this
website. Under certain circumstances, ADCELL can pass on this (anonymised) information to its contractual
partners, although data such as
the IP address is never combined with other stored data.

The Google Tag Manager itself neither stores
cookies
nor processes personal data. It does, however, enable the triggering of further tags which may collect and
process personal data.

94043, USA; "Google").
This feature shows YouTube videos in an iFrame
