"For the integration and presentation of video content, our website uses plugins from YouTube. The provider of the video portal is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA."
When you call up a page with an integrated YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. YouTube thereby learns which of our pages you have accessed. YouTube can directly associate your browsing behavior with your personal profile if you are logged into your YouTube account. By logging out beforehand, you have the option to prevent this.
The use of YouTube is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offerings. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Details on the handling of user data can be found in YouTube's privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help us make our services more user-friendly, effective, and secure.
Some cookies are "session cookies." Such cookies are automatically deleted after your browser session ends. In contrast, other cookies remain on your device until you delete them yourself. Such cookies help us recognize you when you return to our website.
"With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict, or prevent the setting of cookies. Many web browsers can be configured to automatically delete cookies when the program is closed. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality of our website."
The setting of cookies that are necessary for the exercise of electronic communication processes or for the provision of certain functions desired by you (e.g. shopping cart) is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. If other cookies (e.g. for analysis functions) are set, these will be treated separately in this privacy policy.
Google Analytics
"Our website uses features of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analytics service is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA."
The setting of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize our web offerings and, if applicable, advertising.
IP anonymization
"We use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymization feature. This ensures that Google truncates your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmitting it to the USA. There may be exceptional cases where Google transmits the full IP address to a server in the USA and truncates it there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to create reports on website activities, and to provide further services related to website usage and internet usage. There is no merging of the IP address transmitted by Google Analytics with other data from Google."

The setting of cookies by your web browser can be prevented. However, some features of our website may be restricted as a result. You can also prevent the collection of data regarding your website usage, including your IP address, along with subsequent processing by Google.

Order processing
"To fully comply with the legal data protection requirements, we have concluded a contract with Google for order processing."
Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics
Our website uses the "demographic features" function of Google Analytics. This allows for the creation of reports that contain information about the age, gender, and interests of the site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising by Google as well as visitor data from third parties. It is not possible to assign the data to a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time. This can be done through the ad settings in your Google account or by generally prohibiting the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as explained in the section "Objection to data collection."
Google AdWords und Google Conversion-Tracking
'Our website uses Google AdWords. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States.'
AdWords is an online advertising program. As part of the online advertising program, we work with conversion tracking. After clicking on an ad served by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Google AdWords cookies expire after 30 days and do not serve to personally identify users. Google and we can recognize from the cookie that you clicked on an ad and were redirected to our website.
Every Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies are not traceable across AdWords customers' websites. Conversion cookies are used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who use conversion tracking. AdWords customers learn how many users clicked on their ad and were redirected to pages with a conversion tracking tag. However, AdWords customers do not receive information that would allow for personal identification of users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to its use. The conversion cookie can be disabled in the user settings of the browser. This way, there will also be no inclusion in the conversion tracking statistics.
The storage of "conversion cookies" is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We as the website operator have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize our web offerings and our advertising.
Details on Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

This is done by retrieving the Google Web Fonts from a Google server in the USA and the associated transfer of your data to Google.
