8.  Cookies

Cookies help in numerous aspects to make your visit to our site easier, more pleasant and more sensible. Cookies are information files that your web browser automatically stores on your computer’s hard drive when visiting our site.

For example, we use cookies to offer the shopping cart function to you across several pages and to temporarily save your entries when filling out a form on the website. This means you do not have to repeat your entries should you open a subpage. Cookies may also be used to identify you as a registered user after you have registered on the website, without you having to log in again when you access another subpage.

Deactivating cookies may lead to a reduced functioning of the website.

Google Tag Manager

We also use the Google Tag Manager to manage usage-based advertising services. The Tag Manager tool itself is a cookie-free domain and does not collect any personal data. Instead, the tool rather triggers other tags that in turn may collect data under certain circumstances (see above in this context). If you have disabled it at the domain or cookie level, it will persist for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.

9.  Tracking- tools, general matters

We use the Google Analytics web analysis service of to design our website according

to your needs and to continuously optimise it. In this context, pseudonymous user profiles are created and small text files are stored on your computer (cookies). The information generated by the cookie about your website usage is transmitted to the servers of the providers of these services, stored there and prepared for us. In addition to the data listed under point 1, we may also receive the following information:

  • navigation path that a visitor follows on the site, time spent on the website or subpage,
  • the subpage which the website is exited from,
  • the country, region or city you access the site from,
  • end device (type, version, colour depth, resolution, width and height of the browser window) and
  • returning or new visitors.

The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to provide further services associated with the use of the website and the Internet for the purposes of market research and demand-orientated website design. This information may also be shared with third parties if the law requires to so or if third parties process this data on our behalf.

Google Analytics
The provider of Google Analytics is Google Inc, a company of the holding company Alphabet Inc, based in the USA. Before the data are transmitted to the provider, the IP address is shortened through IP anonymisation (‘anonymizeIP’) on this website within the member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The anonymous IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data. The full IP address is only transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases. In these cases, we provide contractual guarantees to ensure that Google Inc. maintains an adequate level of data protection. According to Google Inc. under no circumstances will the IP address be associated with other data that concern the user.

Further information about the web analysis service used can be found on the Google Analytics website. Instructions on how to prevent the processing of your data by the web analysis service are provided onhttp://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Our website also uses Google Optimize. Google Optimize analyses the use of different variants of our website and helps us improve the usability according to the user behaviour on our site. Google Optimize is a Google Analytics integrated tool.

Google AdWords Conversion Tracking 
We also use Google Adwords Conversion Tracking. Google AdWords will store a cookie on your computer if you have reached our website via a Google ad. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to identify you personally. If you visit certain pages of our site and the cookie has not expired, we and Google can detect that someone has clicked on as ad and was redirected to our site. Every AdWords customer is issued a cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to compile conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. AdWords customers are informed of the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that can be used to identify users personally. If you do not wish to take part in the tracking process, you can also refuse the required storing of a cookie - for example, by changing your browser settings which generally deactivate the automatic saving of cookies. You can also disable cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain ‘googleadservices.com.’

Hotjar

10.  Information on data transmitted to the USA

For completeness sake, we would like to point out to users who are residence or domiciled in Switzerland that monitoring measures are in place in the USA by US authorities, which generally allow the storage of all personal data of all persons whose data has been transferred from Switzerland to the USA. This is done without differentiation, restriction or exception on the basis of the objective pursued and without any objective criterion making it possible to limit the access and subsequent use of the data by the US authorities to very specific and strictly limited purposes that can justify the interference linked both to the access and to the use of these data. Furthermore, we would like to point out that there are no legal remedies available in the USA for data subjects from Switzerland that would allow them to gain access to the data concerning them and to obtain its correction or deletion, or that there is no effective judicial legal protection against the general access rights of US authorities. We explicitly emphasise this legal and factual situation to the person concerned in order to make an appropriately informed decision to consent to the use of their data.

Users residing in a member state of the EU should note that from the point of view of the European Union - among other things due to the issues mentioned in this section - the USA does not have a sufficient level of data protection. To the extent that we have explained in this privacy policy that recipients of data (such as Google) are based in the USA, we will ensure that your data is protected at an appropriate level with our partners. This is done either by means of contractual arrangements with these companies or by ensuring that these companies are certified under the EU or Swiss-US Privacy Shield.

11.  Advertising via marketing networks

Google Adwords Remarketing
We use Google Adwords to promote this website in Google search results

and on third-party websites. To do so, when you visit our website, Google stores a so-called remarketing cookie, which automatically enables interest-based advertising by means of a pseudonymous cookie ID and based on the pages you visit. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which outweigh any other interests, in the optimal marketing of our website in accordance with article 6 para 1 p 1 lit f GDPR. When the purpose seizes to exist and at the end of our use of Google AdWords Remarketing, the data collected in this context is deleted.

Any further processing of data will only take place if you have consented to Google linking your web and app browsing history to your Google Account and using information from your Google Account to customise the ads shown to you online. If that is the case, if you are logged into Google while visiting our website, Google will use your data together with Google Analytics data to create and define target group lists for cross-device remarketing. To do so, your personal Google data will be linked temporarily with the Google Analytics data, to create target groups.

Google AdWords Remarketing is an offer of Google LLC (www.google.de). The main office of Google LLC is located in the USA and is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield. You can view a current certificate here . Based on this agreement between the USA and the European Commission, the latter has established an adequate level of data protection for companies certified under the Privacy Shield.

Pinterest Conversion Tracking
Our website uses the Conversion Tracking service from the social network Pinterest Europe Ltd., Palmerston House, 2nd Floor, Fenian Street, Dublin 2, Ireland (‘Pinterest’).

CAUTION! This service involves data transfer to the USA and such data transfer cannot be excluded.

This technology enables us to show our website users adverts and offers that are relevant to them on Pinterest - provided they have shown interest in our site and content/offers and are Pinterest members. 

To this end, a conversion tracking pixel from Pinterest is integrated into our website that informs Pinterest when you visit our website that you have called up our website and which parts of our offer you have shown an interest in.

The use of this service takes place on the basis of your consent in accordance with art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. This can be revoked at any time with subsequent effect.

14.  Data security

We use the relevant technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data stored with us against manipulation, partial or complete loss and against unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

You should always keep your access data confidential and close the browser window when you have finished communicating with us, especially if you share the computer with others.

We also take the company’s internal data protection very seriously. We have committed our employees and the service companies commissioned by us to maintain secrecy and to comply with data protection regulations.

15.  Storage of data

We store personal data only as long as it is necessary to use the above-mentioned tracking and analysis services and to further process within the scope of our legitimate interest. We save contractual data for a longer period of time, as this is prescribed by statutory storage obligations.
