Cookies are used to enable a statistical analysis of how visitors use this website and to display usage-related content or advertising. Cookies are small text files that are stored by the Internet browser on the user’s terminal device. etracker cookies do not contain any information that enables the identification of a user.

c. Google Analytics Remarketing
Our websites use the features of Google Analytics Remarketing in conjunction with the cross-device features of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), with headquarters in Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.
This feature enables the advertising target audiences created with Google Analytics Remarketing to be linked with the cross-device features of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. In this way, interest-based, personalized marketing messages that were customized for you based on your previous usage and surfing behavior on one terminal device (e.g., cell phone) can also be displayed on another one of your terminal devices (e.g., tablet or PC).
If you have given the corresponding consent, Google will link your web and app browser history to your Google account for this purpose. In this way, the same personalized marketing messages can be placed on every terminal device on which you sign into your Google account. To support this feature, Google Analytics records Google-authenticated user IDs, which are temporarily linked with our Google Analytics data so that target audiences for the cross-device advertising can be defined and created.
You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by deactivating personalized ads in your Google account; to do so, click on this link.
The combining of the collected data in your Google account takes place solely on the basis of your consent, which you can grant to or revoke from Google (Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR). For data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g., because you do not have a Google account or have objected to the merging), the collection of data is based on Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR.
More information and the data protection provisions can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking
This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), with headquarters in Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland. Within the scope of Google AdWords, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. Cookies are small text files that the web browser stores locally on the user’s computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification of users. If the user visits certain subpages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, the fact that the user clicked on the ad and was directed to this subpage can be recognized by Google and us.
Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information gathered using the conversion cookie serves towards generation of conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Each of the customers obtains information about the total number of users who clicked on the customer’s ad and were directed to a website provided with a conversion tracking tag. However, the customers do not receive any information allowing them to identify users personally. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can easily object to this use by deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie via the user settings in your web browser. You will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics after that.
When consenting to the use of marketing cookies, conversion cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR.
More information on Google AdWords and Google conversion tracking can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, refuse cookies in specific cases or in general, or activate automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. The functionality of this website can be restricted if cookies are deactivated.

Objecting to Data Collection
You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link: Deactivate Google Analytics.
More information on the handling of user data by Google Analytics can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy.
LinkedIn members may object to the use of their personal data for advertising purposes in their user profile.
 

7. Social media & YouTube

a. Shariff solution
We use Shariff buttons of the social networks Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn and Xing on our website. The buttons are simple HTML links. We proceed here within the framework of the Shariff solution. With the Shariff solution, a script retrieves how often, for example, the share button on a page has been clicked: For this, the script contacts the social network via the programming interfaces and retrieves the numbers. Your personal data are not transmitted. Instead of your IP address, only our server address is transmitted to Facebook, Google and Twitter. You are only directly connected with Facebook, Google or Twitter when you become active. Before that, the social networks cannot collect any data about you. As long as you do not click on a link to share content, you remain invisible to the networks. If you click on the link, the obligation to inform about the data collection and processing no longer lies with us, but with the operator of the social network.

b. Facebook Pixel
A Pixel from Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland („Facebook“) is integrated into this website for conversion measurement (Website-Custom-Audience-Pixel). Through this Pixel, information about the use of this website is collected by EOS Holding GmbH and Facebook under joint responsibility and transmitted to Facebook. This information can be assigned to your person with the help of further information that Facebook has saved about you, e.g., due to your ownership of an account on the social network “Facebook.” By means of the information collected via this Pixel, interest-based ads related to our offerings can be displayed on your Facebook account (retargeting). The information collected via this Pixel can also be aggregated by Facebook for its own advertising purposes and for the advertising purposes of third parties. Thus, Facebook can, e.g., infer certain interests from your surfing behavior on this website and also use this information to advertise offerings from third parties. Facebook can also connect the information collected via the Pixel with other information that Facebook has collected about you, via other websites and/or in connection with the use of the social network “Facebook,” so that a profile about you can be saved by Facebook. This profile can be used for advertising purposes. Facebook is solely responsible for the permanent storage and the described further processing of the tracking data collected via the website Custom Audience Pixel used on this website.
The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6 (1), sentence 1 (a) of the GDPR.

More information on data protection at Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php
Here you will also be able to assert your data subject rights (e.g. right to deletion) against Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. You can revoke your consent to the transfer of data to Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd through the use of the Pixel on this website here.
You can also deactivate the remarketing feature “Custom Audiences” in the ad settings at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen. For this, you have to be logged into Facebook.

c. LinkedIn Insight Tag
The conversion tool „LinkedIn Insight Tag“ of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland is integrated into this website for conversion measurement. This tool creates a cookie in your web browser, which enables the collection of the following data, among others: IP address, device and browser properties, and page events (e.g., page views). This data is encrypted, pseudonymized within seven days, and the pseudonymized data is deleted within 90 days.
LinkedIn does not share personal data with EOS, but offers anonymized reports on website audience and display performance. In addition, LinkedIn offers the possibility of retargeting via the Insight Tag. EOS can use this data to display targeted advertising outside of its website without identifying you as a website visitor. You can find more detailed information about data privacy at LinkedIn in LinkedIn’s data privacy notices.
You can turn off retargeting via LinkedIn here.
Please click here to deactivate the Insight Tag (opt-out).

d. YouTube videos
Our website uses plugins from the YouTube website operated by Google. The pages are operated by YouTube (Google Ireland Limited”, with headquarters in Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland). When you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is created. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited.
If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account. YouTube is used in the interest of presenting our online services in an appealing way.
For further information on Google’s use of data, please see Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy
