Use of Google Marketing and ReMarketing Services
-
We use the marketing and remarketing services (hereinafter referred to as the “Google Marketing Services”) provided by Google Inc., 1600
Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountian View, CA 94043, USA.
-
The Google Marketing Services enable us to display ads for and on our Websites and Service in a more targeted manner so that users are
only shown ads which might actually be of interest to them. For this purpose, as soon as the user accesses our Websites, or other websites
on which Google Marketing Services have been activated, Google immediately executes a Google code and so called re/marketing tags
(invisible graphics or code) are integrated into the Website. With the help of these tags, an individual cookie, is stored on the users’
device (comparable technology can be used instead of cookies). The cookies can be set from various domains, including google.com and
doubleclick.net. This file keeps a record of which websites the user visits, what content he/she is interested in and which offers he/she
has clicked on, as well as technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, time of access and other
details about the use of the website content. The users’ IP address is also recorded, whereby we, within the context of Google Analytics,
would like to point out that, within member states of the European Union or in other countries that are party to the Agreement on the
European Economic Area, the IP address is truncated and only transmitted in its entirety to a Google server in the US and truncated there
in exceptional cases. The IP address will not be linked with any of the user’s data from other services offered by Google. The
aforementioned information can also be combined with equivalent information from other sources. If the user visits other websites
afterwards, he/she can only be shown the ads that directly reflect his/her interests.
-
Within the scope of Google Marketing Services, the users’ data is processed pseudonymously. This means that Google does not, for example,
store and process the users’ name or e-mail address, instead processing the relevant data on the basis of the cookies within pseudonymous
user profiles. In other words, from Google’s point of view, the ads are managed and displayed for the cookie owner, regardless of who the
cookie owner is, rather than for a specifically identified person. This shall not apply where the user has expressly permitted Google to
process the data without this pseudonymization. The information collected about the users via “DoubleClick” shall be transmitted to Google
and stored on Google’s servers in the US.
-
On the basis of Google Marketing Services, we integrate third-party “DoubleClick“ ads. DoubleClick uses cookies that enable Google and its
partner websites to run ads based on users visiting this or other websites.
-
On the basis of Google Marketing Services, we also integrate third-party “AdSense“ ads. AdSense uses cookies that enable Google and its
partner websites to run ads based on users visiting this or other websites.
