5. Analysis tools and advertising

To measure conversion rates, this website uses the visitor activity pixel of Facebook. The provider of this
service is Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. According to Facebook’s
statement the collected data will be transferred to the USA and other third party countries too.
This tool allows the tracking of page visitors after they have been linked to the website of the provider after

and market research purposes and to optimize future advertising campaigns.
For us as the operators of this website, the collected data is anonymous. We are not in a position to arrive at
any conclusions as to the identity of users. However, Facebook archives the information and processes it, so
that it is possible to make a connection to the respective user profile and Facebook is in a position to use the
data for its own promotional purposes in compliance with the
Facebook Data Usage Policy. This enables Facebook to display ads on Facebook pages as well as in locations
outside of Facebook. We as the operator of this website have no control over the use of such data.
The use of Facebook Pixel is based on Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR. The operator of the website has a legitimate
interest in effective advertising campaigns, which also include social media. If a corresponding agreement
has been requested (e.g. an agreement to the storage of cookies), the processing takes place exclusively on
the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the agreement can be revoked at any time.
In Facebook’s Data Privacy Policies, you will find additional information about the protection of your privacy
