6.8                             Google Signals and Google remarketing / DoubleClick

6.8.1                                          If you consented to the “statistics” and "marketing" categories via our cookie banner or cookie consent tool, we also activate the Google Analytics extension Google Signals on our website.

6.8.2                                          With Google Signals, Google Analytics (see section on Google Analytics) records additional information such as demographic data and interest categories for Google users, who have activated personalised ads in their Google settings. Google links this data with individual signals to enable cross-device analyses. However, Google Analytics only makes this data available in anonymised form as aggregated reports, which enable an analysis of general behavioural patterns. We are unable to personally identify you on this basis.

6.8.3                                          We use Google Signals to better understand the digital journey of our users and to provide personalised ads to users who have previously visited our website (retargeting). To this end, special target groups or Google audiences are created within Google Analytics, which can then be used as remarketing lists via Google's advertising platform Google Ads and, if necessary, DoubleClick cookies in order to provide cross-device, personalised advertising to selected target groups. In this case, the ads can be displayed in Google's advertising network, which includes Google Search, YouTube, other Google products as well as third-party websites that display ads from Google customers.

6.8.4                                          For this purpose, Google may use the DoubleClick cookie on websites of the Google advertising network and for specific Google services to assist Google Ads customers and publishers with the placement and management of ads on the web. When you open a website and display or click on an ad placed via websites of the Google advertising network, a DoubleClick cookie may be stored in your browser. The DoubleClick cookie ID assigned to your browser is the same as that used when visiting websites on which DoubleClick advertising programs are used. If your browser already has a DoubleClick cookie, no further DoubleClick cookie should be stored.

6.8.5                                          Once again, the provider is Google LLC (formerly Google Inc.), 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The responsible service provider for the European Union is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland – hereafter referred to as "Google".

6.9.3                                          We use the "Facebook pixel" for the following purposes:

6.9.3.2                                                       Statistical analysis:

6.9.8                                          Moreover, you can revoke your previously granted consent to the use of the "Facebook pixel" at any time and with future effect by selecting "Change your consent" or "Revoke your consent" under "Cookies" at the bottom of our website.

The LinkedIn Insight Tag allows LinkedIn to assign visitors of our website to specific target groups ("matched audiences") in order to display relevant advertising and content to these users ("LinkedIn ads"). Accordingly, we use the "LinkedIn Insight Tag" to display our placed LinkedIn ads to those LinkedIn users who have shown an interest in our online content or who possess specific characteristics (e.g. interests in specific topics or products determined on the basis of the websites visited), which are transmitted to LinkedIn.

6.10.3.2                                                   Statistical analysis:

In addition, we use the "LinkedIn Insight Tag" to measure, analyse and optimise the advertising we post on LinkedIn, for example, to understand whether users interact with our website after seeing and potentially clicking on an ad.

6.10.4                                      This also allows LinkedIn to use the following data for its own purposes:

6.10.4.1                                                   Usage data (e.g. visited websites, interest in contents)

6.10.4.2                                                   Metadata and communication data (e.g. device type, access times, IP addresses)

7.4                             Google Maps

7.4.1                                          We use Google Maps on our website to display our location and create route directions. This is a service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereafter referred to as "Google". 

7.4.2                                          To allow specific fonts to be displayed on our website, a connection to the Google server in the USA is established when our website is opened.

7.4.3                                          If you access the Google Maps component integrated in our website, Google will save a cookie on your end device via your internet browser. To display our location and create route directions, your user settings and data are processed. We cannot exclude the possibility of Google employing servers in the USA for this purpose.

7.4.4                                          The legal basis in this case is your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR and/or section 11(1)(a) of POPI. The integration of this service subsequently also supports our legitimate interest in optimising the functionality of our website.

7.5.4                                          Google Tag Manager does not itself act as a tracking or analysis service but instead enables integration of such services as well as the inclusion of opt-out scripts (means of objecting) and similar functions. Google Tag Manager thus serves as an invaluable aid when it comes to fulfilling transparency and legal obligations in the sphere of data privacy.

7.5.5                                          For example, based on the consent you may have given via our cookie consent manager, we can use this service to control whether or not analysis or ad services are integrated in our website.

7.6.3                                          The data is then stored by CookieBot as proof of the user's consent. The key allows the user's consent to be checked retrospectively.

7.6.4                                          The key and the corresponding consent status are stored in the "CookieConsent" cookie for a period of 12 months. This ensures that the user's settings remain intact for all future page requests on our website without the user having make a new selection upon each visit.

7.6.5                                          The use of cookie bot and the processing of any personal information collected through the service is based on our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR and/or section 11(1)(f) of POPI.

7.7.3                                          YouTube may employ cookies or other storage technologies to collect information regarding user behaviour. According to YouTube, this is done, among other things, to record video statistics, improve usability and prevent misuse.

7.7.4                                          Independently of any playback of the embedded videos, the integration of the YouTube service may also result in a connection being established to the Google network "DoubleClick", which can trigger additional data processing operations over which we have no influence.

7.7.5                                          Further details regarding the use of YouTube, data protection provisions and setting options can be found here:

7.9.4                                          No IP addresses are stored in the web analysis system and all stored data is anonymised. In addition, the product guides or the necessary server services collect the IP address and activities of the user based on a balancing of interests in order to protect against cyber-attacks. This precautionary measure is essential for us to be able to offer our services.

7.9.5                                          The data is retained only temporarily in order to identify potential attack patterns. Thereafter, the IP addresses incl. all log data are fully erased.

7.9.8                                          When using the product guides integrated in this website, you can prevent the collection of your data by the excentos web analysis system and view or change the status by clicking the following link. This sets an opt-out cookie, which prevents the collection of your data on future visits to this website.
