10) Use of social media: videos
use of Youtube videos
This website uses the Youtube embedding feature to display and play videos from the provider "Youtube", which is part of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google").
This uses the enhanced privacy mode, which according to the provider, initiates the storage of user information only when the video(s) is played. If the playback of embedded YouTube videos is started, the provider "YouTube" uses cookies to collect information about user behavior. According to information from "Youtube", these serve, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve user-friendliness and prevent abusive behaviour. If you are logged in to Google, your information is associated directly with your account when you click on a video. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on YouTube, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as user profiles and evaluates them. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO on the basis of Google's legitimate interests in the insertion of personalized advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact YouTube to exercise this right. In the course of using YouTube, personal data may also be transferred to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.
Independent of a playback of the embedded videos, a connection to the Google network is established each time this website is accessed, which may trigger further data processing operations without our influence.
For further information on data protection at "YouTube", please refer to the provider's data protection declaration at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy
In so far as legally required, we have obtained your consent to the processing of your data as described above in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, deactivate this service in the "Cookie-Consent-Tool" provided on the website.
11) Online-Marketing
11.1 Facebook pixel for the creation of custom audiences (with Cookie Consent Tool)
Within our online offer, the so-called "Facebook pixel" of the social network Facebook is used, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Facebook").
If a user clicks on an advertisement placed by us, which is played on Facebook, an addition is added to the URL of our linked page by Facebook pixel. If our site allows sharing of data with Facebook via pixels, this URL parameter is written into the user's browser via cookie, which our linked site sets itself. This cookie is then read out by Facebook Pixel and allows the data to be forwarded to Facebook.
With the help of the Facebook Pixel, Facebook is able to determine the visitors of our online offer as a target group for the display of ads (so-called "Facebook Ads"). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel in order to display the Facebook Ads placed by us only to those Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our online offer or who exhibit certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products determined on the basis of 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 interest of the users and are not annoying. This allows us to further evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by tracking whether users have been redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called "conversion").
The data collected is anonymous to us, so it does not allow us to draw 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 Guidelines (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). The data may 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 only carried out with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, remove the check mark next to the setting for the "Facebook Pixel" in the "Cookie-Consent-Tool" integrated on the website.
11.2 Use of Google Ads conversion tracking
This website uses the online advertising program "Google Ads" and, as part of Google Ads, the conversion tracking of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). We use the Google Ads service to advertise our attractive offers on external websites with the help of advertising material (so-called Google Adwords). In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. We thus pursue the aim of displaying advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you and achieving a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.
The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an ad display switched by Google. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your end device. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. As a result, cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of Google Ads customers. The information collected through the conversion cookie is used to compile conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that personally identifies users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can block this usage by disabling the Google Conversion Tracking cookie from your web browser under the keyword "User Preferences. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. We use Google Ads because of our legitimate interest in targeted advertising in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. In the course of using Google Ads, personal data may also be transferred to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.
You can find more information about Google's privacy policy at the following web address: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/
You can permanently opt-out of the use of cookies by Google Ads Conversion Tracking by downloading and installing the Google browser plug-in available at the following link:
https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin?hl=de/p>
Please note that certain functions of this website may not be able to be used, or only to a limited extent, if you have deactivated the use of cookies.
Insofar as legally required, we have obtained your consent for the processing of your data as described above in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. In order to exercise your revocation, deactivate this service in the "Cookie-Consent-Tool" provided on the website or alternatively follow the above-mentioned procedure for making an objection.
12)Web analysis services
Google (Universal) Analytics
This website uses Google (Universal) Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). Google (Universal) Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including the abbreviated IP address) is usually transferred to a Google server and stored there, and may also be transferred to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA. Through the extension, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a server of Google LLC.in the USA and shortened there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activities and to provide us with further services related to the use of the website and the Internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google (Universal) Analytics is not merged with other Google data. All the processing described above, in particular the setting of Google Analytics cookies for reading information on the terminal device used, is only carried out if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 letter a DSGVO. Without this consent, the use of Google Analytics during your visit to our website will be omitted.
You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, please deactivate this service in the "Cookie-Consent-Tool" provided on the website. We have concluded a contract with Google for the use of Google Analytics, under which Google is obliged to protect the data of our site visitors and not to pass it on to third parties.
For the transmission of data from the EU to the USA, Google refers to so-called standard data protection clauses of the European Commission, which are intended to guarantee compliance with the European data protection level in the USA.

13) Tools and Miscellaneous
13.1 beeclever
This website uses the cookie consent-tool "GDPR Legal Cookie" of beeclever GmbH, Universitätsstraße 3, D-56070 Koblenz a. Rh. to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications requiring consent. ("beeclever").
By integrating an appropriate JavaScript code, a banner is displayed to users when they call up the page, in which consent can be granted for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications by placing a checkmark. The tool blocks the setting of all cookies requiring consent until the respective user gives his consent by ticking the appropriate box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the user's terminal device if consent has been granted.
To enable the cookie-content tool to uniquely assign page views to individual users and to individually record, log and store the consent settings made by the user for the duration of a session, certain user information (including the IP address) is collected by the cookie-content tool when our website is accessed, transmitted to beeclever servers and stored there.
This data processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO on the basis of our legitimate interest in a legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website.
A further legal basis for the described data processing is also Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO. As the responsible party, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent.
Further information on data use by beeclever can be found at https://beeclever.de/pages/datenschutz
13.2 Google Maps
On our website we use Google Maps (API) from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (land) maps to visually present geographical information. By using this service, our location will be displayed to you and any approach will be made easier.
Already when you call up those sub-pages in which the map of Google Maps is integrated, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to servers of Google and stored there. This may also result in a transmission to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA. This happens regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether a user account exists. If you are logged in at Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not want the assignment with your profile at Google, you have to log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as user profiles and evaluates them. The collection, storage and evaluation are carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO on the basis of the legitimate interest of Google in the insertion of personalized advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of Google websites. You have a right of objection to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact Google to exercise this right.

14) Rights of the person concerned
14.1 The applicable data protection law grants you comprehensive data subject rights (rights of information and intervention) vis-à-vis the person responsible for processing your personal data, about which we inform you below:
- Right of information pursuant to Art. 15 DSGVO: In particular, you have the right to obtain information about your personal data processed by us, the processing purposes, the categories of personal data processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period or the criteria for determining the storage period, the existence of a right of rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, opposition to processing, complaint to a supervisory authority, the origin of your data if not collected from you by us, the existence of automated decision making including profiling and, if applicable clear information on the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing concerning you, as well as your right to be informed of the guarantees provided under Art. 46 DPA when your data is transferred to third countries;
- right of rectification under Art. 16 DSGVO: You have the right to have incorrect data relating to you corrected without delay and/or to have your incomplete data stored by us completed;
- right to have your personal data deleted in accordance with Art. 17 DSGVO: You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data if the conditions of Art. 17 para. 1 DSGVO are met. However, this right does not exist in particular if the processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for the fulfilment of a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims;
- right to restrict processing in accordance with Art. 18 DSGVO: You have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data as long as the accuracy of your data which you dispute is checked, if you refuse to delete your data due to unauthorized data processing and demand instead the restriction of the processing of your data, if you require your data for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims, after we no longer require these data after the purpose has been achieved, or if you have lodged an objection for reasons of your particular situation, as long as it has not yet been determined whether our justified reasons outweigh the objection;
- right to be informed in accordance with Art. 19 DSGVO: If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or limitation of processing vis-à-vis the controller, the latter is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this rectification, erasure or limitation of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed about these recipients.
- Right to data transferability according to Art. 20 DSGVO: You have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided us with in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request that it be transferred to another person responsible, as far as this is technically feasible;
- Right to revoke given consent according to Art. 7 para. 3 DSGVO: You have the right to revoke at any time with effect for the future any consent to the processing of data once granted. In the event of revocation, we will immediately delete the data concerned, unless further processing cannot be based on a legal basis for processing without consent. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation;
- right of appeal according to Art. 77 DSGVO: If you believe that the processing of personal data relating to you is in breach of the DPA, you have the right - without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy - to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State in which you are resident, your place of work or the place where the suspected breach occurs.
14.2 RIGHT OF CONTRACT
IF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA IN THE FRAMEWORK OF A CASE OF INTEREST ON THE BASIS OF OUR OVERALL RIGHT OF INTEREST, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THIS PROCESSING WITH EFFECT FOR THE FUTURE FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION.
YOU MAKE USE OF YOUR RIGHT OF CONTRACT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA IN CONNECTION. HOWEVER, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO FURTHER PROCESSING IF WE CAN PROVE COMPELLING REASONS FOR PROCESSING WORTHY OF PROTECTION WHICH OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS.
IF YOU USE YOUR RIGHTS OF CONTRACT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE RELATED DATA FOR DIRECT ADVERTISEMENT PURPOSES.
15) Duration of the storage of personal data
The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal basis, by the purpose of processing and - if relevant - additionally by the respective legal storage period (e.g. storage periods under commercial and tax law).
If personal data is processed on the basis of an explicit consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 letter a DSGVO, these data are stored until the person concerned withdraws his or her consent.
If legal retention periods exist for data which are processed within the scope of legal obligations or obligations similar to legal obligations on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 letter b DSGVO, these data are routinely deleted after expiry of the retention periods, provided that they are no longer required for the fulfilment of the contract or the initiation of a contract and/or we have no justified interest in their further storage.
When personal data are processed on the basis of Art. 6 Par. 1 letter f DSGVO, these data are stored until the person concerned exercises his right to object in accordance with Art. 21 Par. 1 DSGVO, unless we can prove compelling reasons for processing worthy of protection which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the person concerned, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
When personal data are processed for the purpose of direct marketing on the basis of Art. 6 Par. 1 letter f DSGVO, these data will be stored until the data subject exercises his right to object in accordance with Art. 21 Par. 2 DSGVO.
In so far as nothing else arises from the other information in this declaration on specific processing situations, stored personal data will otherwise be deleted when they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
