You can recognise an encrypted connection by the browser’s address line changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is active, third parties cannot read the data that you send us.

8. Newsletter
You can subscribe to a free newsletter. When you register for the newsletter, you will receive an email asking you to confirm your newsletter subscription. This is to ensure that no third party has misused your data (double-opt-in principle).

9. Sweepstakes
We will run sweepstakes on our website from time to time.

Supplementary terms and conditions apply to each sweepstake, which you will need to accept separately to be able to participate.

13. YouTube
Our website uses plug-ins of the YouTube video portal. The provider is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit one of our websites that shows a YouTube video, your browser will establish a connection with the servers of YouTube. For technical reasons, it is then also communicated to the YouTube server which of our sites you have visited. Moreover, if you are logged on to your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to directly assign your surfing behaviour to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account. The use of YouTube and the possible transfer of data to the USA, and hence to a third country without an adequate level of protection, take place based on your consent given in accordance with Art. 49.1 (a) GDPR. You can at any time revoke your consent with future effect. To exercise your revocation, please deactivate this service using the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

More information about the handling of user data is provided in the YouTube data privacy statement at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

14. Google Ads
On some of our websites, we do online advertising using the “Google Ads” tool offered by Google Inc. and, doing so, we also use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an advertisement we have placed with Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your computer. These cookies will become invalid after 30 days, do not contain personal data and are hence not used to personally identify you.

When you visit certain internet pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can see that you have clicked on the advertisement and have been redirected to that page. Each advertiser receives a different cookie, so that it is impossible to track cookies of different Google Ads customers.

The information gathered with the help of the conversion cookie is used to prepare conversion statistics for advertisers that have opted for conversion tracking. The advertisers are informed of the total number of users that have clicked their advertisement and have been redirected to a page provided with a conversion tracking tag, usually the order confirmation page. However, they will not receive information that can be used to personally identify users.

If you do not wish to participate in the tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the storage of the cookies by making appropriate settings in your browser software. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. Further information and Google’s data privacy policy are available at:
http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/
and
https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/.

You can also deactivate personalised advertisements via Google by means of following link:

15. Google Tag Manager
We use the Google Tag Manager on our websites. The Google Tag Manager is offered by Google and is a solution that we can use to manage website tags via a user interface (and, e.g. to integrate Google Analytics and other Google marketing services into our online offering). The Tag Manager itself does not process personal data. However, a connection to Google will be established when our websites are accessed and your IP address will also be processed by Google. Use of the Google Tag Manager is necessary to technically implement our online offerings. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6.1, first sentence, Letter (f) GDPR. To protect your personal data, we use the Google Tag Manager with the anonymisation function.

Where we integrate third-party tools via the Google Tag Manager that process personal data themselves, we point this out specifically in this Data Privacy Statement. More information about the Google Tag Manager is available at https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html.

16. Google reCAPTCHA
We use the reCAPTCHA function on our website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland. The service includes the transmission to Google of the IP address and, possibly, of other data that Google requires for the reCAPTCHA service. By using this function, we protect our website against spam software and misuse by non-natural persons, i.e., non-human visitors. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6.1, first sentence, Letter (f) GDPR. To protect your personal data, we use Google reCAPTCHA with the anonymisation function.

More information about Google reCAPTCHA is available at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

23. No liability for partners’ online offerings
Our online offering also includes contents of third parties. A prerequisite to the use of these services is that the providers of these contents (third-party providers) get to know the user’s IP address. If the IP address is not transmitted, the contents cannot be sent to the respective user. Therefore, transmission of the IP address is necessary to show the contents. We endeavour to only use contents from suppliers that use the IP address solely to deliver the contents.

We cannot prevent third-party providers from storing the IP address for statistical purposes, for example. Where we are aware of this, we will inform our users of this.

When internet pages are accessed to which this website makes reference, it may occur that data such as name, address, email address, browser features etc. are asked for again. This Data Privacy Statement does not regulate the collection, disclosure or treatment of personal data by any third party.

Third-party service providers may have deviating and their own regulations regarding the handling of the collection, processing and use of personal data. Therefore, we recommend that you inform yourself on the internet pages of any third party about how they handle personal data before you enter personal data.
