1. ‘Personal Data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural
person (hereinafter called ‘Data Subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be
identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an

3. ‘Restriction of Processing’ means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of
limiting their processing in the future.

Use of Google AdWords Conversion

(1) We use the offer of Google Adwords, in order to draw attention to our attractive offers on
external websites by way of using so-called Google Adwords. We will be able to determine in relation
to the data of the advertising campaigns, how successful the individual advertising campaigns are.
We pursue the interest to display to you advertisements which are of interest to you, to make our
website more interesting for you and to achieve a fair calculation of advertising costs.

(2) The Adwords will be supplied by Google via so-called „Ad Server“. For this purpose, we use socalled
Ad Server Cookies enabling the measuring of certain parameters for performance indicators,
such as showing the displays or clicks through the users. Insofar as you will reach our website via a
Google ad, Google Adwords will store a cookie on your PC. These cookies will usually loose their
validity after 30 days and are not designed to identify you personally. In addition to this cookie,
usually the Unique Cookie-ID, the number of Ad Impressions each placement (Frequency), the last
impression (relevant for Post-View-Conversions) as well as Opt-out-Information (mark, that the user
does not want to be contacted anymore) will be stored.

(3) These cookies enable Google to recognize your internet browser. If a user will visit certain pages
of the website of an Adwords customer and if the stored cookie is not expired, Google and the
customer will recognize that the user has clicked onto the ad and had been transferred to this site. A
different cookie will be assigned to each Adwords customer. Thus, cookies cannot be tracked via the
website of Adwords customers. We ourselves do not collect and process any personal data in the
advertising activities mentioned before. We will only receive from Google statistical analyses. By way
of such analyses, we are able to determine, which advertising campaigns are particularly effective.
We will not receive any further data from the use of the Adwords, in particular, we will not be able to
identify the user by way of this information.

(4) Due to the marketing tools used, your browser will automatically set up a direct connection to the
server of Google. We do not have any influence on the scope and further use of the data, which had
been collected by Google through the use of this tool and we will thus inform you in accordance with
out state of knowledge. Through the integration of Adwords Conversion, Google will receive the
information, that you have called the respective part of our internet presence or that you have
clicked onto one of our ads. If you are registered with this Google service, Google will be able to
assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or not logged in, there is
the chance that the provider will get to know and store your IP address.

(5) You are able to prevent the participation in this tracking process in various different ways:
(a) through a respective setting of your browser software; in particular the suppression of third-party
cookies will result in the fact, that you will not receive any ads of third-party providers;
11
(b) through deactivating the cookies for Conversion Tracking by way of setting your browser, so that
cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com” will be blocked,
https://www.google.com/settings/ads, whereby these settings will be deleted if you delete your
cookies;
(c) through deactivating the interest-related ads of the providers, which are part of the self
regulation campaign “About Ads”, via the link https://www.aboutads.info/choices, whereby this
setting will be deleted if you delete your cookies;
(d) through a permanent deactivation in your Firefox Browser, Internet Explorer or Google Chrome
under the link https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. We would like to point out, that you may
not be able to completely use all functions of this offer in this case;

(6) The legal basis is Art. 6, Para. 1, P. 1, lit. a GDPR. Further information on data protection of
Google: http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy and

(4) This website uses Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizehelp()”. This way, IP addresses
are processed in an abbreviated form thus eliminating a reference to persons. Insofar as a personal
reference is attributed to the data collected about you, this will thus be immediately excluded and
the personal data will be erased.

(5) We use Google Analytics to be able to analyse and regularly improve the use of our website. We
can use the statistical data generated to improve our offer and to design the offers more interesting
for you as a user. Google has submitted itself to the EU-US Privacy Shield,

advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You
