If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions desired by you (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies to analyze your surfing behavior) are stored, they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.

FACEBOOK PIXEL

Our website uses the visitor action pixel of Facebook, Facebook Inc., 1601 p. to measure conversion. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”).

In this way, the behavior of the site visitors can be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider’s website by clicking on a Facebook advertisement. This allows the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements to be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising measures to be optimized.

The data collected is anonymous to us as the operator of this website, we cannot 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. This allows Facebook to place advertisements on Facebook pages as well as outside Facebook. This use of the data cannot be influenced by us as the site operator.

You can also use the remarketing function “Custom Audiences” in the Ad Settings section at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/? disable entry_product=ad_settings_screen. To do this, you must be logged in to Facebook.
