3. Processing for contractual purposes

We process your personal data if and insofar as this is necessary for the initiation, establishment, execution and/or termination of a legal transaction with our company. The legal basis for this arises from Art. 6 (1)(1)(b) GDPR. The provision of your data is necessary for the conclusion of the contract and you are contractually obligated to provide your data. If you do not provide us with your data, it will not be possible to conclude and/or execute a contract. After the purpose has been achieved (e.g., contract processing), the personal data will be blocked for further processing or erased, unless we are authorised to process it further on the basis of a consent granted by you (e.g., consent to process your e-mail address for sending electronic advertising mail), a contractual agreement, a statutory authorisation (e.g., authorisation to send direct advertising) or on the basis of legitimate interests (e.g., retention for the enforcement of claims).

The forwarding of your personal data to third parties occurs insofar as

  • it is necessary for the establishment, execution or termination of legal transactions with our company (e.g., in the case of the forwarding of data to a payment service provider/shipping company for the processing of a contract with your person), (Art. 6 (1)(1)(b) GDPR), or
  • a subcontractor or vicarious agent that we use exclusively in the course of providing the offers or services you request requires such data (such agents are, unless you are expressly notified otherwise, only authorised to process the data to the extent necessary to provide the offer or service), or
  • there is an enforceable administrative order (Art. 6 (1)(1)(c) GDPR), or
  • there is an enforceable court order (Art. 6 (1)(1)(c) GDPR), or
  • we are obligated to do so by law (Art. 6 (1)(1)(c) GDPR), or
  • processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person (Art. 6 (1)(1)(d) GDPR), or
  • it is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority (Art. 6 (1)(1)(e) GDPR), or
  • we can invoke our overriding legitimate interests or those of a third party for forwarding (Art. 6 (1)(1)(f) GDPR).

Any processing of your personal data beyond this to other persons, companies or bodies shall not take place unless you have effectively consented to such a forwarding. The legal basis of the processing is then Art. 6 (1)(1)(a) GDPR. We refer you to the respective recipients within the framework of this data protection information in relation to the respective processing operation.

We use so-called "web fonts" for the uniform display of fonts, which are provided by Google (Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, fax: +353 (1) 436 1001). When you retrieve a website, your browser loads the required web fonts from Google into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly and more quickly.

The Tag Manager tool itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-free domain and does not collect any personal data. The tool triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data; we explain this separately in this Privacy Policy. Google Tag Manager does not access such data. If a deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, this remains in place for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.

7.3 Google Analytics

In order to be able to optimally adapt our website to user interests, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google (Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, fax: +353 (1) 436 1001).

7.4 Google Ads (Conversion)

We use the service of Google Ads from Google (Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, fax: +353 (1) 436 1001), in order to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites with the aid of advertising media (formerly known as Google AdWords). We can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are in relation to the data of the advertising campaigns. Such advertising media are delivered by Google via so-called "ad servers". For this purpose, we use "ad server" cookies, through which certain parameters for measuring reach, such as display of ads or clicks by users, can be measured. If you access our website via a Google ad, a cookie is stored by Google Ads on your device. With the help of the cookies, Google processes the information generated by your device regarding interactions with our advertising media (retrieval of a specific Internet page or click on an advertising medium), the data mentioned in the "Use of our website" section, in particular your IP address, browser information, the website previously visited and the date and time of the server request, for the purpose of analysing and visualising the measurement of reach of our advertisements. Based on the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google's server. If you are registered with one of Google’s services, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, there is a possibility that the provider will be able to determine your IP address and process it. From Google, we receive only statistical evaluations to measure the success of our advertising media. Google processes data in the USA and has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Salesforce also analyses usage behaviour and access data from other sources such as apps, social media channels (published posts and generally available information) or newsletters (e.g., whether and when newsletters are opened and which links are clicked by the reader to measure reading habits, opening and click-through rates), in order to support the personalised targeting of ads on websites, social media platforms, in apps as well as on our newsletters. For this purpose, Salesforce uses cookies, pixel tags (tracking pixels), browser fingerprints, and similar technologies that store or read information in user devices when they access our websites, apps, social media channels or newsletters. Based on these technologies, data from users may be transferred to Salesforce and used as the basis of statistical analysis and measurement of reach. This allows us to test usage-based advertising campaigns and present usage-based advertising media. The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1)(1)(a) GDPR. Salesforce also processes your data in the USA. Salesforce has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield (https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework) and has thus committed to compliance with European data protection standards (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000KzLyAAK&status=Active). The storage period of your data is six months. For information regarding Salesforce privacy, please visit https://www.salesforce.com/de/company/privacy/full_privacy/.

7.23 Yahoo Advertising Insights

We also use the online marketing tool of Yahoo (part of Verizon Media EMEA Limited, 5-7 Point Square, North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland). Yahoo Advertising Insights is used to draw attention to our attractive offers with the help of advertising media on external websites. We can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are in relation to the data of the advertising campaigns. These advertising media are delivered by Yahoo via so-called "ad servers". For this purpose, we use cookies and similar tracking technologies such as tracking pixels and browser fingerprints, through which certain parameters for measuring reach - e.g., display of ads, duration of viewing or clicks by users - can be measured. In doing so, information stored on user devices is also processed. If users access our website via a Yahoo advertisement, Yahoo stores a cookie on the user's device. With the help of cookies and tracking pixels, Yahoo processes the information generated by the user's device regarding interactions with our advertising media (retrieval of a specific website or click on an advertising medium) and user access data, in particular IP address, browser information, the website previously visited and the date and time of the server request, for the purpose of analysing and visualising the measurement of reach of our advertisements. Based on the marketing tools used, the user's browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Yahoo server. The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6 (1)(1)(a) GDPR. The storage period of your data is twelve months. For more information on data protection within the framework of Yahoo Advertising Insights, please visit https://www.verizonmedia.com/policies/us/en/verizonmedia/privacy/index.html.

By means of such logs, individual visits to our website can be randomly replayed to identify sources of technical error and derive possible improvements to the user experience of our website. The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6 (1)(1)(a) GDPR. Yandex also processes your data in Russia.
