This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online adver­ti­sing program of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States

As part of Google AdWords, we use what is known as conver­sion tracking. If you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set for conver­sion tracking. Cookies are small text files that the Internet browser stores on the user’s computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used to perso­nally identify users. 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 AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The infor­ma­tion collected using the conver­sion cookie is used to generate conver­sion statis­tics for AdWords customers who have opted for conver­sion tracking. Customers find out 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 any infor­ma­tion with which users can be perso­nally iden­ti­fied. If you do not wish to parti­ci­pate in tracking, you can object to this use by easily deac­ti­vating the Google Conversion Tracking cookie via your Internet browser under user settings. They will then not be included in the conver­sion tracking statistics.

The storage of “conver­sion cookies” takes place on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legi­ti­mate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.
