Some of these above-mentioned recipients are located outside your country or process your personal data there. The level of data protection in other countries may differ from that in your country.

MailChimp stores the newsletter data (email addresses and other data in accordance with this Privacy Notice) on its servers in the USA. MailChimp is certified under the US-EU Privacy Shield Agreement and therefore obligated to comply with the provisions of European data protection law.

8. Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files that are saved on your computer, to help the website analyse your use of the site. We process your data on the basis of our overriding legitimate interest in producing easy-to-use website access statistics in a cost-effective manner.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address and the URLs of the websites accessed) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. We do not store any of your data that is collected in connection with Google Analytics.

This website uses the IP anonymisation option offered by Google Analytics. Google will therefore shorten/anonymise your IP address as soon as Google receives your IP address. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to website and internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other data by Google.

You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, we would like to point out that, in this case, you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting your data in connection with Google Analytics by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

You can also prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics on this website by clicking on the link given below. An opt-out cookie is placed on your computer, which prevents the collection of your data in future when you visit our website.

9. Use of Social Media Plug-ins

Our website uses social media plug-ins such as e.g. for Facebook, Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn or Xing.

These plug-ins are deactivated (“greyed out”). You can activate plug-ins by clicking on them. Initially, your IP address, the URL of our website and cookies will then be sent to the respective social media service, which tells them that our website was visited by this IP address. If you really do want to use the plug-in and its functionalities, you then have to click a second time. The next time you log into your user account with the respective social media service, that service can assign your visit to our website to your user account. We have no knowledge of the purpose and scope of the data collected and the processing and use of the data by the social media service, which will depend on the functionalities of the plug-in and the data protection provisions of the social media service.

Our website uses the visitor action pixel from Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook") for conversion measurement. Facebook Inc. is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield Agreement, which ensures the compliance of US companies with European data protection standards.

With the visitor action pixel, the behaviour of site visitors can be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Facebook advertisement, and site visitors who log onto Facebook are shown the provider’s advertisements. As a result, the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements can be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising measures optimised.

The use of the visitor action pixel and the associated tracking is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. As website operator, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise both our website and our advertising.

The collected data is anonymous to us as the operator of this website; we cannot draw conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with Facebook’s data policy. As a result, Facebook can enable advertisements to be displayed on Facebook and outside of Facebook. This use of data cannot be influenced by us as the site operator. Further information about the protection of your privacy can be found in Facebook’s data policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/

You can also disable the remarketing "Custom Audiences" feature in the Ads Settings section at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/entry_product=ad_settings_screen. If you do not have a Facebook account, you can opt out of use-based advertising from Facebook on the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: https://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices
