If we make advance payments, e.g. in the case of a purchase on account, we may obtain creditworthiness information on the basis of mathematical statistical procedures from SCHUFA Holding AG, Kormoranweg 5, 65201 Wiesbaden, Germany, in order to safeguard our legitimate interests. For this purpose, we transmit the personal data required for a credit check to SCHUFA Holding AG and use the information received on the statistical probability of a payment default for a balanced decision on the establishment, execution or termination of the contractual relationship.

Q. Use of Google Ads conversion tracking

We use the online advertising programme "Google Ads" on our website and, in this context, conversion tracking (visit action evaluation). Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service of Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google").

When you click on an advert placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your computer. These cookies have a limited validity, do not contain any personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognise that you have clicked on the ad and have been redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. It is therefore not possible for cookies to be tracked via the websites of Ads customers.

The information obtained with the help of the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics. This tells us the total number of users who clicked on one of our adverts and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified.

You can deactivate personalised advertising for you in Google's advertising settings. You can find instructions on how to do this at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=de.

You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

We use the AdSense function of Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google") on our website.

This function is used to display personalised, interest-based advertisements from the Google Display Network to visitors to the provider's website. Google uses cookies that enable your use of the website to be analysed.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google may transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. Google has certified itself in accordance with the US-EU data protection agreement "Privacy Shield" and is therefore obliged to comply with European data protection guidelines.

You can permanently deactivate the use of cookies by Google by following the link below and downloading and installing the plug-in provided there: https://support.google.com/ads/answer/7395996?hl=de.

S. Use of Bing Ads

We use Bing Ads from Microsoft Corporation (Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA; "Microsoft") on our website.

When you click on an advert placed by Microsoft Bing Ads, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your computer. This cookie has a limited validity and is not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Microsoft and we can recognise that you have clicked on the ad and have been redirected to this page.

Information obtained with the help of the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics. We find out the total number of users who clicked on one of our adverts and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, it is not possible to personally identify these users.

Your data may be transferred to the USA. Microsoft has certified itself in accordance with the US-EU data protection agreement "Privacy Shield" and is therefore obliged to comply with European data protection guidelines.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate technical settings in your browser software; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.

As a result, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.
