8) Online Marketing

Facebook Pixel for the creation of custom audiences (with Cookie Consent Tool)
Within our online offering, the so-called "Facebook Pixel" of the social network Facebook is used, which is operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Facebook").
If a user clicks on an advertisement placed by us that is displayed on Facebook, an addition is added to the URL of our linked page by Facebook Pixel. If our page allows the sharing of data with Facebook via Pixel, this URL parameter is written into the user's browser via a cookie that our linked page itself sets. This cookie is then read by Facebook Pixel and enables the data to be forwarded to Facebook.
With the help of the Facebook Pixel, Facebook is able to determine the visitors to our online offering as a target group for the display of advertisements (so-called "Facebook Ads"). Accordingly, we use the Facebook Pixel to only display the Facebook Ads placed by us to those Facebook users who also have an interest in our online offering or which have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products determined based on the websites visited) which we transmit to Facebook (so-called “Custom Audiences”). With the help of the Facebook pixel, we also want to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interests of users and are not annoying. This enables us to further evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements for statistical and market research purposes by tracking whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook advertisement (so-called “conversion”).
The data collected is anonymous to us and therefore does not allow us to draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook data usage policy ( https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/ ). The data can enable Facebook and its partners to place advertisements on and outside of Facebook.
The data processing associated with the use of the Facebook pixel is carried out exclusively with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a of GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your shortened IP address) is usually transferred to a Google server and saved there; this may also involve transmission to Google LLC servers in the USA.
This website uses Google (Universal) Analytics exclusively with the extension "_anonymizeIp()", which anonymizes the IP address by shortening it and prevents it from being directly linked to a person.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google LLC server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to website activity and Internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google (Universal) Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
Google Analytics uses a special function called “demographic features” to also compile statistics with information about the age, gender and interests of site visitors based on an evaluation of interest-based advertising and with the use of third-party information. This allows the definition and differentiation of website user groups for the purpose of targeting marketing measures that are optimized for specific groups. However, data records collected using “demographic features” cannot be assigned to a specific person.
