The legal basis for this processing is your consent given when you click on the cookie banner displayed when accessing our website.

“Facebook” pixel: We use the so-called “Facebook pixel” of Facebook Ireland Ltd. The Facebook pixel enables us to group the visitors to our website into specific target groups in order to have relevant advertisement (“ads”) displayed to you on Facebook. We do not have access to the personal information collected (e.g. IP addresses, information on the web browser, location of the website, buttons you clicked on, Pixel IDs and other features), we may only use it to display certain ads.

If you have a Facebook account and are logged in, your visit to this Website will be associated with your Facebook user account.

As mentioned above, we also use the remarketing feature “Custom Audiences” of Facebook. This feature enables the display of interest-based ads (“Facebook Ads”) to users of our website that are visiting Facebook or other websites that use this function. We pursue the interest of displaying ads to you that are relevant to your interests in order to provide you with a more interesting experience at our Website.

Your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Facebook server to exchange the relevant information. We have no control over the extent and further processing of the personal information collected by Facebook through the use of this tool and therefore we provide the information available to us: The integration of Facebook Custom Audiences provides Facebook with the information that you visited the relevant web page or clicked on one of our ads. In case you are logged into a “Facebook” service, “Facebook” can associate your visit with your account. Even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not logged in, there is a possibility that the provider ascertains your IP address and other identifiers and stores them.

If you have given your consent, we might pass your telephone number or e-mail address to “Facebook” in order to be able to display ads that are relevant to your interests.
