Further transmission of your data to third parties does not take place unless you have expressly consented to it.

The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which allows the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures, and Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, which permits the processing for the protection of legitimate interests.

Data transfer to payment service providers and credit checks.

PayPal:
We have integrated components from PayPal, an online payment service provider, on our website. PayPal allows payments through so-called PayPal accounts, which are virtual private or business accounts. The European operating company of PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., with its registered office in Luxembourg.

If you choose the payment option "PayPal" during the checkout process in our online shop, data will be automatically transmitted to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, you consent to the transmission of personal data required for payment processing. The transmitted data typically includes first name, last name, address, email address, IP address, phone number, mobile phone number, or other data necessary for payment processing, including data related to the respective order.

The transmission is for payment processing and fraud prevention purposes. We will transmit personal data to PayPal, especially when there is a legitimate interest for the transmission. PayPal may use personal data in collaboration with credit agencies for identity and credit checks.

If necessary, PayPal may share the personal data with affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors to the extent required for the fulfillment of contractual obligations or when the data is to be processed on behalf.

You have the option to revoke your consent for the processing of personal data at any time with PayPal. Please note that revoking consent does not affect personal data that must be processed, used, or transmitted for (contractual) payment processing.

The transmission of your payment data to PayPal is based on your consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the processing for the performance of a contract in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. Revoking your consent is possible at any time, while data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected.

You can access the applicable privacy policy of PayPal at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full.

PayPal Checkout:
This website uses PayPal Checkout, an online payment system provided by PayPal, which consists of PayPal's own payment methods and local payment methods from third-party providers. When paying via PayPal, credit card via PayPal, direct debit via PayPal, or, if offered, "Pay Later" via PayPal, we will transmit your payment data to PayPal (Europe) S.a.r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter "PayPal") as part of the payment processing. The transmission is carried out in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and only to the extent necessary for payment processing.

For the payment methods credit card via PayPal, direct debit via PayPal, or, if offered, "Pay Later" via PayPal, PayPal reserves the right to conduct a credit check. For this purpose, your payment data may be transmitted to credit agencies by PayPal in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, based on PayPal's legitimate interest in determining your creditworthiness. PayPal uses the result of the credit check regarding the statistical probability of payment default for the purpose of deciding on the provision of the respective payment method. The credit check result may include probability values (so-called score values). If score values are included in the credit check result, they are based on a scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical procedure. Address data, among other things, is included in the calculation of score values, but not exclusively. You can object to this processing of your data at any time by sending a message to PayPal. However, PayPal may still be entitled to process your personal data if this is necessary for the contractual payment processing.

When selecting the PayPal payment method "Invoice Payment," your payment data will be initially transmitted to PayPal to prepare the payment, after which PayPal will forward this data to Ratepay GmbH, Franklinstraße 28-29, 10587 Berlin ("Ratepay") to carry out the payment. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. In this case, RatePay conducts an identity and credit check in its own name to determine creditworthiness in accordance with the principle mentioned above and, based on the legitimate interest in determining creditworthiness according to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, forwards your payment data to credit agencies. A list of the credit agencies that Ratepay can access can be found here: https://www.ratepay.com/legal-payment-creditagencies/

When using the payment method of a local third-party provider, your payment data will be initially transmitted to PayPal in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR to prepare the payment. Depending on your selection of an available local payment method, PayPal will then transmit your payment data to the corresponding provider for the purpose of carrying out the payment in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR:

3. Integration of YouTube Videos
On our website, we have embedded YouTube videos that are stored on http://www.YouTube.com and can be played directly from our website. These videos are all embedded in "privacy-enhanced mode," which means that no data about you as a user will be transmitted to YouTube unless you play the videos. Only when you play the videos, certain data will be transferred.

By visiting our website, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. This data transmission includes your IP address, date and time of the request, time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), content of the request (specific page), access status/HTTP status code, amount of data transferred, website from which the request comes, browser, operating system, and its interface, language, and version of the browser software.

We have no control over this data transmission. If you are logged into your Google account, your data will be directly associated with your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your YouTube profile, you must log out before activating the button.

YouTube stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for advertising, market research, and/or customizing its website. Such evaluations are also carried out for users who are not logged in to enable targeted advertising and inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website.

You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. To do so, you must directly contact YouTube.

For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by YouTube, please refer to the privacy policy at https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy. Google also processes your personal data in the United States and has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

This data is processed solely for the purpose of providing directions and maintaining the security and functionality of Google Maps.

Purpose and Legal Basis:
The use of Google Maps is based on your consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Section 25(1) of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

Data Transfer to Third Countries:
We intend to transfer personal data to third countries outside the European Economic Area, especially the USA. In case there is no adequacy decision by the European Commission (e.g., for the USA), we have agreed on appropriate safeguards with the recipients of the data in accordance with Articles 44 ff. of the GDPR. Unless otherwise indicated, these safeguards are based on the standard contractual clauses of the European Commission as per Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914 of June 4, 2021. You can view a copy of these standard contractual clauses at https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32021D0914&from=DE.

Furthermore, we obtain your consent in accordance with Article 49(1)(a) of the GDPR before such transfer to a third country, which you provide via the consent manager (or other forms, registrations, etc.). We would like to inform you that there may be specific unknown risks associated with transfers to third countries (e.g., data processing by security authorities of the third country, the precise scope of which and the consequences for you are unknown to us and beyond our control, and of which you may not be aware).

Storage Duration:
The specific storage duration of the processed data is not within our sphere of influence but is determined by Google Ireland Limited. For further information, please refer to the privacy policy for Google Maps: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

5. Raffles/Contests
From time to time, you have the opportunity to participate in raffles or contests on our website. In the context of these raffles, personal data such as email address, name, address, and, if necessary, other data necessary for the raffle may also be collected and stored. The personal information you provide to us will be used exclusively for the purpose of conducting the raffle (e.g., for determining the winners, notifying the winners, and delivering the prize). In the context of the raffle, we will inform each participant specifically about the data processing related to the respective raffle. After the conclusion of our raffles, the data of the participants will be deleted.

6. Deletion
Personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to exist or if you request deletion. Data will also be deleted when a storage period required by law expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for contract conclusion or fulfillment or if you have given your consent for such storage.

7. Cookies
Our website uses cookies to make the use of the website attractive and to take into account the preferences of website visitors. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your device and allow the identification of the browser when you revisit the website.

Some cookies are called "session cookies" and are automatically deleted when you end your browser session. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them and help us recognize you when you return to our website.

You have the option to monitor, restrict, or block the setting of cookies. Most web browsers can be configured to automatically delete cookies when you close the program. However, please note that disabling cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

The legal basis for processing cookies necessary for the execution of electronic communication processes or for providing certain functions you desire (e.g., shopping cart) is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing these cookies to provide our services technically error-free and smoothly. If other cookies (e.g., for analytical functions) are set, they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.

You can prevent the storage of cookies on your hard drive by adjusting the browser settings accordingly. Already set cookies can be deleted at any time. Information on this can be found in the respective browser's instructions.

8. Data integrity
We take measures to secure our website and other systems against loss, destruction, access, alteration, or dissemination of your data by unauthorized individuals. The transmission of data depends on the browser used and is encrypted using SSL encryption ranging from 128-bit to 256-bit. Despite regular checks and continuous improvement of our security measures, complete protection against all dangers is not possible.

9. Google AdWords Remarketing
Our website utilizes the features of Google AdWords Remarketing to advertise this website in Google search results as well as on third-party websites. The provider is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). For this purpose, Google places a cookie in your browser, which enables interest-based advertising automatically through a pseudonymous cookie ID, based on the pages you have visited. The processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in the optimal marketing of our website in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

Further data processing will only occur if you have consented to Google linking your internet and app browsing history with your Google account and using information from your Google account to personalize ads that you view on the web. If you are logged into Google during your visit to our website in such a case, Google uses your data together with Google Analytics data to create and define target audience lists for cross-device remarketing. Your personal data will be temporarily linked with Google Analytics data by Google for this purpose, to create target audiences. You can permanently disable the setting of cookies for ad preferences by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/

For more information and Google's privacy policy concerning advertising, you can visit: http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/

10. Use of Google Analytics for Web Analysis
Type and Scope of Processing:

To statistically analyze our online offering, we use Google Analytics by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. This involves analyzing data such as the number of page views, visited subpages, and the duration of visitors' stays. Google Analytics uses cookies and other browser technologies to evaluate user behavior and recognize users. This information is used, among other things, to create reports about website activity.

Purpose and Legal Basis:
The use of Google Analytics is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG.

Data Transfer to Third Countries:
We intend to transfer personal data to third countries outside the European Economic Area, particularly the USA. In cases where there is no adequacy decision by the European Commission (e.g., for the USA), we have agreed on appropriate safeguards with the data recipients in accordance with Art. 44 ff. GDPR. Unless otherwise indicated, these safeguards are based on the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses according to Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914 of 4 June 2021. You can access a copy of these standard contractual clauses at https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32021D0914&from=EN.

Furthermore, we obtain your consent pursuant to Art. 49 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR before transferring data to such a third country. You can provide this consent through the consent manager (or other forms, registrations, etc.). We would like to inform you that there may be unknown risks associated with transfers to third countries (e.g., data processing by security authorities of the third country, the exact extent of which and its consequences for you we do not know, over which we have no control, and which you may not become aware of under certain circumstances).

Storage Duration:
The specific storage duration of the processed data is not within our control but is determined by Google Ireland Limited. For more information, please refer to the Privacy Policy for Google Analytics: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

11. Use of Social Media Plug-ins
11.1 Which providers do we use?

Currently, we use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Instagram, Google+, Pinterest. We employ the so-called two-click solution. This means that when you visit our site, no personal data is initially transmitted to the providers of these plug-ins. You can recognize the provider of the plug-in by the marking on the box displaying its initial letter or logo. We provide you with the option to communicate directly with the plug-in provider through the button. Only when you click on the marked field and activate it, does the plug-in provider receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding website of our online offering. Additionally, the IP address, date and time of the request, time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), content of the request (specific page), access status/HTTP status code, data volume transferred, website from which the request originates, browser, operating system, and its interface, language, and version of the browser software are transmitted.

According to the respective providers, in Germany, the IP address is anonymized immediately after collection in the case of Facebook. By activating the plug-in, your personal data is thus transmitted to the respective plug-in provider and stored there (for US-based providers, this may be in the USA). As the plug-in provider collects data primarily through cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies from your browser's security settings before clicking on the grayed-out box.

(Note: The original text refers to Google+ which is no longer available as a social media platform. You may want to update the text to include other relevant platforms like Twitter or LinkedIn, based on your actual usage.)

11.2 No Influence by Us
We have no control over the data collected and the data processing operations carried out by the social media plug-in providers. We are also not aware of the full extent of data collection, the purposes of processing, or the storage periods. Furthermore, we do not have information about the deletion of data collected by the plug-in providers. As a result, we recommend that you refer to the privacy policies of the respective plug-in providers to obtain more information about their data processing practices and how they handle the data collected through their plug-ins.

11.3 Use by Providers
The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as usage profiles and uses them for advertising, market research, and/or to tailor their website to meet specific user needs. Such analysis is carried out, particularly for users who are not logged in, to display targeted advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and to exercise this right, you must contact the respective plug-in provider. Through the use of these plug-ins, we offer you the opportunity to interact with social networks and other users, allowing us to improve our offering and make it more interesting for you as a user. The legal basis for using the plug-ins is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

11.4 Data Sharing
The data is shared regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in to the plug-in provider's account, the data collected by us will be directly associated with your existing account with the plug-in provider. When you activate the button and, for example, link the page, the plug-in provider also stores this information in your user account and shares it with your contacts publicly. We recommend that you regularly log out of social media networks, especially before activating the button, as this can prevent the association of data with your profile at the plug-in provider.

11.5 Privacy Policies of the Providers
Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing by the plug-in providers can be found in the privacy policies of these providers, as indicated below. There, you will also find additional information about your rights and options for protecting your privacy.

11.6 Facebook Pixel
On our website, we use the Facebook Pixel, a Facebook Business tool provided by Facebook Ireland Limited (Ireland, EU), and Facebook Ads by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. You can find information about the contact details of Facebook Ireland and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, as well as the contact details of the data protection officer of Facebook Ireland, in Facebook Ireland's data policy at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited's privacy policy at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/explanation.

The Facebook Pixel is a JavaScript code snippet that allows us to track the activities of visitors on our website, known as Conversion Tracking. The Facebook Pixel collects and processes various information, such as information about actions and activities of visitors on our website, specific pixel information such as the pixel ID and the Facebook cookie, information about buttons clicked by visitors on the website, as well as information present in HTTP headers, such as IP addresses, information about the web browser, the location of the page, and the referrer, and information about the status of deactivation/restriction of ad tracking.

Some of this event data consists of information stored on your used device. Furthermore, cookies are also used via the Facebook Pixel to store information on your used device. Such storage of information by the Facebook Pixel or access to information already stored on your device is only done with your consent.

Facebook Ads allows us to create Custom Audiences, segmenting groups of visitors of our online offering, determining conversion rates, and subsequently optimizing them, especially when you interact with advertisements that we have placed with Meta Platforms Ireland Limited.

The event data collected through the Facebook Pixel and Facebook Ads is used for targeting our advertisements and improving ad delivery, personalizing features and content, and enhancing and securing Facebook products.

The processing of event data through the Facebook Pixel and Facebook Ads only takes place if you have given your prior consent. The legal basis for the collection and transmission of personal data by us to Facebook Ireland and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited is therefore Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can withdraw your consent via our consent management.

This collection and transmission of event data is carried out by us, Facebook Ireland, and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited as joint controllers. We have concluded agreements with Facebook Ireland and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, respectively, concerning the processing as joint controllers, which determine the distribution of data protection obligations between us and the companies.

For the subsequent processing of the transmitted event data, Facebook Ireland, and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited are solely responsible. For more information on how Facebook Ireland and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited process personal data, including the legal bases on which they rely, and the options for exercising your rights with respect to the companies, please refer to Facebook Ireland's data policy at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited's privacy policy at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/explanation.

In addition, we have also commissioned Facebook Ireland to create reports on the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and other online content (campaign reports), as well as to create analyses and insights about users and their use of our website, products, and services (analyses) based on the event data collected via the Facebook Pixel. For this purpose, we transmit personal data contained in the event data to Facebook Ireland and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited. The transmitted personal data is processed by Facebook Ireland and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited as our processors to provide us with the campaign reports and analyses.

The processing of personal data for the creation of analyses and campaign reports only takes place if you have given your prior consent. The legal basis for this processing of personal data is therefore Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The transfer of data to Facebook Inc. in the USA cannot be ruled out. The legal basis for this transfer is the Standard Contractual Clauses for the transfer of personal data to processors in third countries. Please refer to the section "Data Transfer to Third Countries" for more information.

11.7 TikTok Pixel
On our website, we use the TikTok Pixel, a TikTok advertiser tool provided by both TikTok Technology Limited, 10 Earlsfort Terrace, Dublin, D02 T380, Ireland, and TikTok Information Technologies UK Limited, WeWork, 125 Kingsway, London, WC2B 6NH, United Kingdom (both collectively referred to as "TikTok" hereinafter).

The TikTok Pixel is a JavaScript code snippet that allows us to understand and track the activities of visitors on our website. The TikTok Pixel collects and processes information about the visitors of our website or the devices they use (so-called event data).

The event data collected through the TikTok Pixel is used for targeting our advertisements and improving ad delivery and personalized advertising. For this purpose, the event data collected on our website via the TikTok Pixel is transmitted to TikTok.

Some of this event data consists of information stored on your used device. Furthermore, cookies are also used via the TikTok Pixel to store information on your used device. Such storage of information by the TikTok Pixel or access to information already stored on your device is only done with your consent. The legal basis for the collection and transmission of personal data by us to TikTok is therefore Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time via our consent management tool.

This collection and transmission of event data is carried out by us and TikTok as joint controllers. We have concluded an agreement with TikTok concerning the processing as joint controllers, which determines the distribution of data protection obligations between us and TikTok. In this agreement, we and TikTok have agreed, among other things, that we are responsible for providing you with all information pursuant to Art. 13, 14 GDPR about the joint processing of personal data, and that TikTok is responsible for enabling the rights of data subjects pursuant to Art. 15 to 20 GDPR regarding the personal data stored by Facebook Ireland after the joint processing. You can access the agreement concluded between us and TikTok at https://ads.tiktok.com/i18n/official/article?aid=300871706948451871.

For the subsequent processing of the transmitted event data, TikTok is solely responsible. For more information on how TikTok processes personal data, including the legal basis on which TikTok relies, and the options for exercising your rights against TikTok, please refer to TikTok's data policy at https://www.tiktok.com/legal/privacy-policy?lang=de-DE.

12. Job Applications
We also collect and process personal data from job applicants for the purpose of handling the application process conducted by us. This processing may also take place electronically. This is the case whenever the applicant submits application documents to us electronically, such as via email or through a web form implemented on our website.

If we enter into an employment contract with an applicant, the data transmitted will be stored for the purpose of handling the employment relationship in compliance with legal regulations. However, if no employment contract is concluded between us and the applicant, the application documents will be deleted four months after the decision to reject the application, provided that there are no other legitimate interests of the data controller that would oppose the deletion. Another legitimate interest in this sense, for example, would be the need to provide evidence in a legal proceeding under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

We aim to evaluate all applicants solely based on their qualifications and therefore kindly request that applicants refrain from providing information regarding racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic data, biometric data for the unique identification of a natural person, health data, or data concerning sexual life or sexual orientation in their application.

13. Rights of the data subject
If your personal data is processed by us, you are a data subject within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the data controller:

13.1 Right to information

(Note: This translation includes the relevant rights based on the context of data protection and privacy regulations. The specific rights may vary depending on the applicable laws and regulations in your jurisdiction.)

13.2 Right to rectification
You have the right to request the data controller to correct and/or complete any personal data concerning you if it is inaccurate or incomplete. The data controller must make the correction without undue delay.

1. If you contest the accuracy of your personal data, the processing will be restricted for a period during which the data controller can verify the accuracy of the personal data.

2. If the processing is unlawful, and you oppose the erasure of the personal data, but instead, you request the restriction of its use.

3. If the data controller no longer needs the personal data for processing purposes, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or if you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR, pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the data controller override your reasons.

When the processing of your personal data is restricted based on the above conditions, except for storage, the data can only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

If the processing restriction is applied in accordance with the mentioned conditions, you will be informed by the data controller before the restriction is lifted.

13.4 Right to Erasure
You have the right to request the data controller to promptly erase the personal data concerning you, and the data controller is obligated to delete this data without undue delay if one of the following reasons applies:

1. The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.

2. You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based according to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

3. You object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.

4. The personal data concerning you has been unlawfully processed.

6. The personal data concerning you has been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Article 8(1) of the GDPR.

Information to Third Parties
If the data controller has made your personal data publicly available and is obligated to delete it according to Article 17(1) of the GDPR, the data controller shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, with consideration to available technology and implementation costs, to inform other data controllers processing the personal data about your request for the erasure of any links to, or copies or replications of, this personal data.

Exceptions
The right to erasure does not apply in situations where the processing is necessary:

1. For exercising the right of freedom of expression and information.

2. For compliance with a legal obligation that requires processing according to the laws of the European Union or its member states, to which the data controller is subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the data controller.

3.  For reasons of public interest in the area of public health, as outlined in Article 9(2)(h) and (i), and Article 9(3) of the GDPR.

You have the right to be informed about these recipients by the data controller.

13.6 Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. This right applies if the processing is based on your consent according to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, or on a contract according to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means.

Additionally, you have the right to transmit this data to another data controller without hindrance from us, where technically feasible, and provided that it does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others. However, we will only implement such direct transmission to another data controller if it is technically feasible.

The data will be provided in a machine-readable format that allows you to easily use and transmit the information to third parties.

13.7 Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions. The data controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless they demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, including profiling related to such direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing purposes.

The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. The legality of data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected by the revocation.

13.9 Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or significantly affects you in a similar way. This does not apply if the decision is necessary for entering into or performing a contract between you and the data controller, is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the data controller is subject, and that law includes appropriate measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests, or if you have explicitly consented to the decision.

However, these decisions cannot be based on special categories of personal data according to Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) of the GDPR applies, and adequate measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests have been taken.

13.10 Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
As a data subject, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in the event of a violation of data protection regulations. Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to file a complaint with a supervisory authority, especially in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you violates the GDPR.

18. Google DoubleClick
Type and scope of processing:

We have integrated components of DoubleClick by Google on our website. DoubleClick is a brand of Google that primarily offers special online marketing solutions to advertising agencies and publishers. DoubleClick by Google transfers data to its servers with each impression, click, or other activities. Each of these data transmissions triggers a cookie request to the browser of the individual concerned. If the browser accepts this request, DoubleClick sets a cookie in your browser. DoubleClick uses a cookie ID that is required for the technical process, such as displaying an advertisement in a browser. DoubleClick can also use the cookie ID to determine which advertisements have already been displayed in a browser to avoid duplicate advertisements. Furthermore, through the cookie ID, DoubleClick can track conversions. Conversions are recorded, for example, when a user has previously been shown a DoubleClick advertisement and subsequently makes a purchase on the advertiser's website using the same internet browser. A DoubleClick cookie does not contain personal data, but it may contain additional campaign identifiers. A campaign identifier serves to identify campaigns with which you have already interacted on other websites. As part of this service, Google obtains knowledge of data that is also used to create commission settlements. Among other things, Google can track that you have clicked on certain links on our website. Your data will be forwarded to the operator of DoubleClick, Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, in this case. Further information and the applicable privacy policy for DoubleClick by Google can be accessed at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

You give your consent through the setting for the use of cookies (cookie banner / consent manager) and you can revoke it with future effect at any time in accordance with Article 7(3) of the GDPR. The cookie is used, among other things, to display and present user-relevant advertising and to create or improve reports on advertising campaigns. Furthermore, the cookie serves to avoid multiple displays of the same advertisement. With each access to one of the individual pages of our website on which a DoubleClick component has been integrated, your browser is automatically prompted by the respective DoubleClick component to transmit data for the purpose of online advertising and commission settlements to Google. There is no legal or contractual obligation to provide your data. If you do not give us your consent, you can still visit our website without any restrictions, but some features may not be fully available.
