The Google marketing services allow us to display advertisements for and on our website in a more targeted manner in order to only show users advertisements that potentially match their interests. If, for example, users are shown ads for products that they were interested in on other websites, this is referred to as remarketing. For these purposes, when you visit our and other websites on which Google marketing services are active, Google directly executes a code from Google and so-called (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, etc.) are inserted into the website known as web beacons) are integrated into the website. With their help, an individual cookie, ie a small file, is stored on the user's device (comparable technologies can also be used instead of cookies). The cookies can be set by various domains, including google.com, doubleclick.net, invitemedia.com, admeld.com, googlesyndication.com or googleadservices.com. This file records which websites the user has visited, what content they are interested in and which offers they have clicked on, as well as technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, visiting time and other information about the use of the online offer. The user's IP address is also recorded, although we inform Google Analytics that the IP address is shortened within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area and only in exceptional cases Transferred to servers by Google in the USA and shortened there. The IP address is not merged with the user's data within other Google offerings. This information mentioned above may also be combined with such information from other sources. When the user then visits other websites, ads tailored to their interests can be shown to them.den.
User data is processed pseudonymously as part of Google marketing services. This means that Google does not store and process the user's name or email address, but rather processes the relevant cookie-related data within pseudonymous user profiles. This means that from Google's perspective, the advertisements are not managed and displayed for a specifically identified person, but for the cookie holder, regardless of who the cookie holder is. This does not apply if a user has expressly allowed Google to process the data without this pseudonymization. The information collected by DoubleClick about users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google's servers in the USA.t.
The Google marketing services we use include the online advertising program Google AdWords. In the case of Google AdWords, each AdWords customer receives a different conversion cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. AdWords customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, you will not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.sen.

The list and appearance of the Facebook social plugins can be viewed here:esehen werden: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
When a user accesses a function of this online offer that contains such a plugin, their device establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers.

12. Integration of third-party services and content
It may happen that content or services from third-party providers, such as city maps or fonts from other websites, are integrated into our online offering. The integration of content from third-party providers always requires that the third-party providers perceive the user's IP address, as without the IP address they would not be able to send the content to the user's browser. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. Furthermore, the providers of third-party content can set their own cookies and process user data for their own purposes. User usage profiles can be created from the processed data. We will use this content as data-efficiently and as data-avoiding as possible and will choose reliable third-party providers with regard to data security.
The following presentation provides an overview of third-party providers and their content, along with links to their data protection declarations, which contain further information on the processing of data and, in some cases already mentioned here, objection options (so-called opt-out):
