6. Plugins and tools 

6.1 Facebook 

The person responsible for processing on this website has integrated  components of Facebook. Facebook is a social network.  
 
A social network is a meeting platform on the internet, an online community that allows users as a rule to communicate with each other and to interact within a virtual space. A social network can be used as a platform to exchange opinions and experiences or enables the internet community to make personal or company-related information available.   
 
Facebook offers social network users – amongst others – to set up private profiles, upload photos and to establish links via friendship requests.  
 
Facebook’s operating company is the Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, U.S. Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland is responsible for processing person-related data for those persons living outside of the U.S. or Canada.  

 
Each call-up of individual sites of this website that is operated by the person responsible for processing and on which a Facebook component is integrated (Facebook plugin), the internet browser on the information-technological system of the relevant person is automatically asked by the relevant Facebook component to download a description of the relevant Facebook component. You can call up a general overview of all Facebook plugins under https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE .Within the scope of this technical procedure Facebook becomes aware which specific sub-page of our website is visited by the person concerned.  
 
In as far as the person concerned is logged-in on Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognises this with every call-up of our website by this person concerned and also which specific sub-age of our website was called up by this person during the overall stay on our website. This information is collected by the Facebook components and allocated by Facebook to the relevant Facebook account of the person concerned. If the person concerned activates one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, for example the ”like” button or this person writes a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the personal Facebook user account of the person concerned and safes this person-related data.  
 
Facebook always receives information about the fact that the person concerned is visiting our websit via the Facebook components, provided this person is logged in on Facebook at the same time as visiting our website and this takes place irrespective of whether or not this person clicks the Facebook component. In case the person concerned does not want such a transfer of information to Facebook, this transfer can be prevented such that this person logs out of his/her Facebook account before visiting our website.  
 
The data guideline published by Facebook can be called up under https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/  . It explains the collecting, processing and using of person-related data by Facebook. The platform also explains what setting  is available on Facebook to protect the privacy of the person concerned.

By calling up an individual page on this website that is operated by the person responsible for processing and on which an Instagram component is installed  (Insta-button), the browser is automatically initiated on the information-technological system of the person concerned by means of the relevant Instagram component to download a presentation of the same. Within the scope of this technical procedure Instagram is made aware which specific sub-page of our websitethe person concerned is visiting.  
In as far as the person concerned is logged in on Instagram at the same time, Instagram knows with every call-up of our website by this person and during the overall period of staying on our website, which specific sub-page this person is visiting. The Instagram components collect this information and assign it to the relevant Instagram account of this person. Once the person concerned activates one of the Instagram buttons installed on our website, the thus transferred data and information is assigned to this person’s Instagram user account and saved and processed there.  
 
Instagram always receives information via the Instagram components once this person is visiting our website, provided this person visiting our website is logged in on Instagram at the same time. This happens irrespective of whether or not this person clicks on the Instagram button. If this person does not want this information transferred to Instagram, he/she can stop the transfer by logging out of Instagram prior to calling up our website.

6.3 YouTube 

Our website uses plugins of YouTube operated by Google. The operator of YouTube is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, U.S.

6.4 Google Web Fonts 

In order to achieve a uniform appearance of our website we use so-called web fonts made available by Google. When a website is called up your browser uploads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.  

For this purpose your browser must connect to the Google servers. By this action Google is made aware that our website is called up via your IP-address. Using Google web fonts improves the presentation of our online offers positively. This is a legitimate interest in terms of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. 

In case your browser does not support web fonts, your computer will use a standard font. 

Please find further information on the Google web fonts under https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and also in the Google privacy statement: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

6.5 Google Adwords 

The person responsible for this website has installed Google AdWords. Google AdWords is a service to support internet advertising allowing those doing adverts to set up advertisements in the search engine results of Google as well as in the Google advertising network. Google AdWords allows those preparing an advert to determine certain key words with which results of the search engines are only then displayed if the user of the search engine calls up a key word relevant to the search.  The Google advertising network shows the adverts by means of an automatic algorithm and by observing the key words set beforehand allocated to those websites relevant to the subject.  

The Google AdWords service provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, U.S. 

The purpose of Google AdWords is to place adverts on our website by fading-in adverts of interest from third parties and in the search engines of Google and also fading-in external adverts on our website.  

If a person gets to our website through a Google advert, a so-called conversion cookie is placed on the information-technological system of this person. The function of cookies is explained further up in this text. A conversion cookie becomes invalid after 30 days and does not support an identification of the person concerned. Provided the cookie has not yet become invalid, information is obtained of whether certain sub-pages of our website have been called up – for example the shopping basket of an online shop system - via this conversion cookie.  The conversion cookie tells us as well as Google, whether the person concerned that got to our website through an AdWord advertisement, has generated or aborted a sale.   

The data and information collected by using conversion cookies are used by Google to prepare visitor statistics for our website. In turn we use these visitor statistics to establish the overall number of users that transferred to our website via AdWords advertisements that is to establish success or failure of the specific AdWords advertisement and to optimise our AdWords advertisements in future.  Neither our company nor other Google AdWords advertising customers receive information from Google with which the person concerned could be identified.  

The conversion cookies save person-related data, for example those internet sites visited by this person. Accordingly, person-related data including the IP-address of this person’s internet connection is transmitted to Google in the United States following every visit of our website. This person-related information is saved by Google in the United States. Under certain circumstances, Google may pass this data collected via this technical procedure to third parties.  

The person concerned can prevent the placing of cookies via our website any time, as described above, by setting the internet browser accordingly and thus contradicting the placing of cookies permanently. Such a setting on the internet browser in use would also stop Google to place a conversion cookie on the information-technological system of this person. In addition, a cookie placed by Google AdWords can be deleted any time via the internet browser or other software programmes. 

Also, this person has the possibility to contradict advertisements of his/her interest by Google. To this end this person has to call up this link      https://www.google.de/settings/ads from each and every internet browser used by him/her and rearrange the settings.  

Please find further information and the applicable Google privacy statement under https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ .

This website uses the services of Google Maps via an API. The service provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, U.S. 

In order to use the functions of Google Maps, your IP address must be saved. This information is transmitted and saved to a Google server in the U.S. as a rule. The provider of this website has no influence on this data transfer.  

Using Google Maps is set up to display our online offers more appealingly and also to facilitate finding our locations mentioned on the website. This is a legitimate interest in terms of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
