Collaboration with processors, joint controllers and third parties
If, in the context of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies (processors, joint controllers or third parties), transmit them to them or otherwise grant access to the data, this will only be done on the basis of a legal permission (e.g. if the transmission of data to third parties, such as payment service providers, is necessary in order to fulfill the contract), if users have consented, if there is a legal obligation to do so or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. the use of agents, webhosters, etc.).
Insofar as we disclose data to other companies in our group, convey it or otherwise grant access to it, this is done in particular for administrative purposes as a legitimate interest and, moreover, on a basis that complies with the legal requirements.
Transfers to third countries
If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA) or the Swiss Confederation) or if disclosure or transmission of data to other persons or companies in a third country is involved in the use of third party services, this will only be done if it is necessary for the fulfillment of our (pre-)contractual obligations, based on user consent, due to a legal obligation or based on our legitimate interests.
Subject to explicit consent or a contractually required transmission process, we process data only in third countries with a recognised level of data protection to which belong the „Privacy Shield“ certified US processors or on the basis of specific safeguards, such as contractual obligation by so-called standard safeguards of the EU Commission, the existence of certifications or binding internal data protection regulations (Articles 44 to 49 GDPR, information page of the European Commission).

Cookies and right to object to direct mail
„Cookies“ are small files that are stored on users‘ computers. Different information can be stored within the cookies. A cookie serves primarily to store the information about a user (or about the device on which the cookie is stored) during or after his visit to an online offer. Temporary cookies, or „session cookies“ or „transient cookies“, are cookies that are deleted after a user leaves an online service and closes his browser. In such a cookie, e.g. the contents of a shopping cart in an online store or a login status are saved. „Permanent“ or „persistent“ refers to cookies that remain stored even after the browser has been closed. Thus, e.g. the login status will be saved if users visit it after several days. Moreover, the interests of the users can be stored in such a cookie, which are used for reach measurement or marketing purposes. A „third-party cookie“ refers to cookies that are offered by providers other than the person responsible for the online offer (otherwise, if it is only their cookies, this is called „first-party cookies“).
We can use temporary and permanent cookies and clarify this in the context of our Privacy Policy.
Insofar as we ask users for consent to the use of cookies (e.g. in the context of a cookie consent), the legal basis of this processing is Article 6 (1) lit. a. GDPR. Otherwise, the personal cookies of the users according to the following explanations in the context of this Privacy Policy will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 para 1 lit. GDPR) or if the use of cookies is required in order to provide our contractual services, in accordance with Art. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. GDPR, or if the use of cookies is required for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority, pursuant to Art. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e. GDPR.
If users do not want any cookies to be stored on their device, they are asked to disable the option in their browser’s system settings. Saved cookies can be deleted in the system settings of the browser. The exclusion of cookies can lead to functional restrictions of this online offer.
A general objection to the use of cookies used for online marketing purposes can be declared in a variety of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the US website http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. Furthermore, the storage of cookies can be achieved by switching them off in the settings of the browser. Please note that not all features of this online offer can be used without cookies.
Deletion of data
The data processed by us will be deleted or restricted in accordance with legal requirements. Unless explicitly stated in this privacy statement, the data stored by us will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary for their intended purpose and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory storage requirements.
Unless the data is deleted because it is required for other and legally permitted purposes, its processing will be restricted. That means the data is blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, for data that must be kept for commercial or tax reasons.
Changes and updates to the Privacy Policy
We ask the users to inform themselves regularly about the content of our Privacy Policy. We will adjust the Privacy Policy as soon as the changes to the data processing we make require it. We inform our users as soon as the changes necessitate a co-operation (e.g. consent) or other individual notification.
Business-related processing
In addition, we process
- contract data (e.g. subject matter of the contract, duration, customer category)
- payment data (e.g. bank details, payment history)
- of our customers, prospects and business partners for the purpose of providing contractual services, service and customer care, marketing, advertising and market research.
Contractual services
We process the data of our clients, interested parties and other clients or contractual partners (uniformly referred to as „clients“) in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR in order to provide them with our contractual or pre-contractual services. The data processed, the type, scope, purpose and necessity of their processing are determined by the underlying contractual relationship. The processed data basically includes inventory data and master data of the clients (e.g. name, address, etc.), the contact data (e.g. email address, telephone number, etc.), the contract data (e.g. services used, fees, names of contact persons, etc.) and payment details (e.g. bank details, payment history, etc.).
As part of our services we can also process special categories of data acc. Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, in particular information on the health of clients, possibly related to their ethnic origin, religious or ideological convictions or sexual orientation. If necessary, acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7, Art. 9 (2) lit. a. GDPR, we obtain the explicit consent of the clients and process the special categories of data otherwise for purposes of health care on the basis of Art. 9 (2) (h). GDPR, § 22 para. 1 no. 1 b. Federal Data Protection Act.
If required by law or for the fulfillment of the contract, we disclose or transmit client data in the context of communication with other professionals and with third parties who are involved in the fulfillment of the contract, e.g. accounting centres or other comparable service providers, as far as this serves the provision of our services acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit b. GDPR, is legally required acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit c. GDPR, is prescribed to our interests or those of clients in terms of an efficient and cost-effective healthcare acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. F. GDPR or acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit d. GDPR is necessary to protect vital interests of the clients or another natural person or in the context of a consent acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7 GDPR.
As part of the use of our online offer, we can save the IP address and the time of the respective user action. The storage is based on our legitimate interests and the interests of users in the protection against misuse and other unauthorised use. We do not transfer this data to third parties, unless it is required to pursue our claims acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR or there is a legal obligation acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c. GDPR.
The data is deleted if the data for the fulfillment of contractual or legal duties of care and the handling of any warranty and similar obligations is no longer required. The necessity of keeping the data is reviewed every three years; otherwise the legal storage obligations apply.
External payment service providers
We use external payment service providers whose platforms allow users and us to make payment transactions. These payment service providers may include:
As part of the fulfillment of contracts, we use the payment service providers on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. GDPR. Incidentally, we use external payment service providers on the basis of our legitimate interests acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR in order to offer our users effective and secure payment options.
The data processed by the payment service providers includes inventory data, such as names and addresses, bank data, such as account numbers or credit card numbers, passwords, TANs and checksums, as well as contract information, amount information and recipient-related information. The information is required to complete the transactions. However, the data entered will only be processed and stored by the payment service providers. That means we do not receive any account or credit card information, but only information with confirmation or negative information about the payment. The data may be transmitted by the payment service providers to credit reporting agencies. This transmission aims at the identity and credit check. For this we refer to the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy of the payment service providers.
For the payment transactions, the Terms and Conditions and the privacy notices of the respective payment service providers, which are available within the respective websites, or transactional applications apply. We also refer to these for further information and assertion of rights of revocation, information and other data subject rights.
Administration, financial accounting, office organisation, contact management
We process data in the context of administrative tasks as well as for the organisation of our business, for financial accounting and for compliance with legal obligations, such as archiving.
In doing so, we process the same data that we process in the course of rendering our contractual services. The processing principles are Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c. GDPR, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. The processing affects clients, prospects, business partners and website visitors. The purpose and interest in processing lies in administration, financial accounting, office organisation, data archiving, tasks that serve the purpose of maintaining our business, performing our duties and providing our services. The deletion of the data with regard to contractual services and contractual communication corresponds to the information provided in these processing activities.
We disclose or transmit data to the financial administration, consultants, such as tax accountants or auditors, and other billing centres and payment service providers.
Furthermore, based on our business interests, we store information about suppliers, organisers and other business partners, e.g. for later contacting. We generally store this company-related data permanently.
Business analysis and market research
In order to operate our business economically, to be able to recognise market tendencies, wishes of the contractors and users, we analyse the data available to us for business transactions, contracts, inquiries, etc. We process inventory data, communication data, contract data, payment data, usage data, metadata on the basis of Art 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR, whereby the affected persons include contractual partners, interested parties, clients, visitors and users of our online offer.
The analyses are carried out for the purpose of business analysis, marketing and market research. In doing so, we can provide the profiles of the registered users with information, e.g. take into account their used services. The analyses serve us to increase the user-friendliness and to optimise our offer as well as the business economy. The analyses will not be disclosed externally unless they are anonymous, aggregated value analyses.
If these analyses or profiles are personal, they will be deleted or anonymised upon termination of the users, otherwise after two years from the conclusion of the contract. Incidentally, the overall business analyses and general trend determinations are created anonymously if possible.
Google Cloud Services
We leverage Google’s cloud and cloud software services (so-called Software as a Service, such as Google Suite) for the following purposes: document storage and management, calendar management, emailing, spreadsheets, presentations, sharing documents, content and information with particular recipients or publication of web pages, forms or other content and information as well as for chats and participation in audio and video conferencing.
In doing so, the personal data of the users are processed, as far as they are part of the documents and contents processed within the described services or are part of communication processes. This can include master data and contact data of users, data on transactions, contracts, and other processes and its contents. Google also processes usage data and metadata used for security and service optimisation purposes.
In the context of the use of publicly available documents, web pages or other contents, Google may save cookies on users‘ computers for the purposes of web analysis or to remember users‘ settings.
We use Google Cloud services based on our legitimate interests in efficient and secure administrative and collaboration processes acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Further, processing is based on a contract processing contract with Google (https://cloud.google.com/terms/data-processing-terms).
For more information, see the Google Privacy Policy (https://www.google.com/policies/privacy) and the Google Cloud Services Security Advisory (https://cloud.google.com/security/privacy/). Users may object to the processing of their data in the Google Cloud to us in accordance with legal requirements. Incidentally, the deletion of the data within Google’s cloud services is determined by the remainder of the processing processes under which the data is processed (e.g. deletion of data that is no longer required for contractual purposes or storage of data required for taxation purposes).
Google Cloud Services are offered by Google Ireland Limited. In case of a transfer to the US, we refer to the Google US Privacy Shield certification (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000000001L5AAI&status=Active) and the Standard Protection Terms (https://cloud.google.com/terms/data-processing-terms).
Participation in Affiliate Programs
Within our online offer we use industry-standard tracking measures based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economical operation of our online offer) acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, as far as these are necessary for the operation of the affiliate system. We clarify the users about the technical background below.
The services offered by our contractual partners can also be advertised and linked on other websites (so-called affiliate links or after-buy systems, if, e.g. links or services of third parties are offered after conclusion of a contract). The operators of the respective websites receive a commission if users follow the affiliate links and make use of the offers.
In summary, our online offering requires us to be able to keep track of whether users who are interested in affiliate links and/or the available offers make use of the offers on the affiliate links or our online platform. For this, the affiliate links and our offers are supplemented by certain values that are part of the link or set otherwise, e.g. in a cookie. In particular, the values include the source website (referrer), the time, an online identifier of the operator of the website on which the affiliate link was located, an online identifier of the respective offer, an online identifier of the user, as well as tracking specific values such as advertisement ID, affiliate ID, and categorisations.
The online user IDs we use are pseudonymous values. That means the online identifiers themselves do not contain personal data such as names or email addresses. They only help us determine whether the same user who clicked on an affiliate link or was interested in an offer through our online offer, made use of the offer, e.g. has signed a contract with the provider. However, the online identification is personal insofar as in addition to the Online ID there is other user data available to the partner company and to us. Only in this way the partner company can tell us whether the user has made use of the offer and we, e.g. can pay the bonus.
On the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the economic operation of our online offer acc. Art. 6 (1) lit. DSGVO) we are participants of the following partner programs:
These affiliate programs are designed to provide a medium for websites to earn advertising fees through the placement of advertisements and links to the providors of affiliate program (so-called affiliate system). That means as a partner, we earn on qualified purchases.
These affiliate programs use cookies to understand the origin of orders. Among other things, these can be identified by the fact that a user has clicked on the partner link on this website and subsequently purchased a product from the provider of the partner program or concluded a contract with or via this.
For more information about data usage by the above affiliate program providers and opt-out options, please see the company’s Privacy Policy.
Comments and posts
If users leave comments or other posts, their IP addresses based on our legitimate interests are stored for 7 days acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. This is for our own safety, in case someone posts illegal content (insults, prohibited political propaganda, etc.). In this case, we may be sued for the comment or post and are therefore interested in the identity of the author.
Furthermore, we reserve the right, in accordance with our legitimate interests acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR, to process the information of users for the purpose of spam detection.
On the same legal basis we reserve the right, in the case of surveys, to store the IP addresses of users for the duration of their use and to use cookies to avoid multiple votes.
The information provided in the comments and posts about the person, any contact and website information as well as the content information, are stored by us permamently until the objection of the user.
Contacting
When contacting us (e.g. by contact form, email, telephone or via social media), the information of the user is processed in order to handle the contact request and its processing acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. GDPR (in the context of contractual/pre-contractual relationships), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR (other requests). The user information can be stored in a Customer Relationship Management System („CRM System“) or comparable request organisation.
We delete the requests, if they are no longer required. We check the requirement every two years; Furthermore, the legal archiving obligations apply.
Newsletter
With the following information we inform the users about the content of our newsletter, the registration, delivery and statistical evaluation procedure as well as their right of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter, they agree to the receipt and the procedures described.
Content of the newsletter: We send newsletters, emails and other electronic notifications with promotional information (hereinafter „newsletter“) only with the consent of the recipient or a legal permission. Insofar as the content of a newsletter is concretely described in the context of an application for the newsletter, it is decisive for the consent of the user. Incidentally, our newsletters contain information about our services and us.
Double opt-in and protocolling: Registration for our newsletter is done in a so-called double opt-in procedure. That means users will receive an email after subscribing, asking them to confirm their registration. This confirmation is necessary so that nobody can register with external email addresses. The registration for the newsletter will be logged in order to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the login and confirmation time as well as the IP address. Likewise, the changes in the data will be logged at the newsletter service provider.
Credentials: To subscribe to the newsletter, it is sufficient for users to provide their email address. Optionally, we ask users to provide a name for personal address in the newsletter.
The sending of the newsletter and the related performance measurement are based on the consent of the recipient acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, Art. 7 GDPR in conjunction with § 7 para. 2 no. 3 UWG or if a consent is not required, based on our legitimate interests in direct marketing acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lt. F. GDPR in conjunction with § 7 para. 3 UWG.
The protocolling of the registration process is based on our legitimate interests in accordance with. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. We are interested in using a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves our business interests as well as meeting the expectations of users and allows us to verify consent.
Termination/revocation: Users can terminate the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke their consent. A link to cancel the newsletter can be found at the end of each newsletter you receive. You will find a link to unsubscribe at the end of each email you receive. Alternatively, you can send an email to hello@goodism.de. We may save the email addresses for up to three years on the basis of our legitimate interests before we delete them in order to provide evidence of prior consent. The processing of this data is limited to the purpose of a possible defense against claims. An individual request for cancellation is possible at any time, provided that at the same time the former existence of a consent is confirmed.
Mailchimp
The newsletters are sent by MailChimp, a mailing service provider of Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA. The privacy policy of the newsletter service provider can be viewed here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/. The Rocket Science Group LLC is Privacy Shield certified, which provides a guarantee to comply with European data protection standards (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TO6hAAG&status=Active). We cooperate with the service provider based on our legitimate interests acc. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR and a data processing agreement acc. Art. 28 para. 3 p. 1 GDPR.
The newsletter service provider may retrieve the data of the recipients in pseudonymous form, i.e. without assignment to a user in order to optimise or improve their own services, e.g. for the technical optimisation of delivery and the display of newsletters or for statistical purposes. However, the service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact them or to pass the data on to third parties.
Success measurement: The newsletters contain a so-called „web beacon“, i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the server when opening the newsletter from our server, or if we use a service provider, from their server. As part of this, technical information, such as information about the browser and the system, as well as the user’s IP address and time of the retrieval are collected.
This information is used to improve the technical performance of the services based on the technical data, the target groups, their reading behaviour, the retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times. The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our intention nor, if used, that of the newsletter service provider to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognise the reading habits of our users and to adapt and customise our content according to the interests of our users.
Unfortunately, a separate revocation of the success measurement is not possible. In this case, the entire newsletter subscription must be terminated.

Google Tag Manager
Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows us to manage so-called web site tags through one interface (including integrating Google Analytics and other Google marketing services into our online offer). The tag manager itself (which implements the tags) does not process users‘ personal data. With regard to the processing of users‘ personal data, reference is made to the following information about the Google services. Usage Policy: https://www.google.com/intl/en/tagmanager/use-policy.html.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland („Google“). Google uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about the use of the online offer by the users are usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our online offer by users, to compile reports on the activities within this online offer and to provide us with further services related to the use of this online offer and the internet usage. In this case, pseudonymous user profiles of the processed data can be created.
We only use Google Analytics with activated IP anonymisation. This means that the IP address of the users is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases the full IP address will be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there.
The IP address submitted by the user’s browser will not be merged with other data provided by Google. Users can avoid the storage of cookies by setting their browser software accordingly; Users may also prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie related to their use of the online offer as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link:
http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
If we ask the users for consent (e.g. in the context of a cookie consent), the legal basis of this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a. GDPR. Otherwise, the personal data of the users will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer acc. Art. 6 para. 1 letter f GDPR).
As far as data is processed in the US, we point out that Google is Privacy Shield certified, thereby ensuring compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
More information about Google’s data usage, setting options and opt-out can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and Google’s Ads Settings (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).
The personal data of users will be deleted or anonymised after 14 months.
Targeting with Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to display advertisements posted within Google and its affiliate advertising services, only to those users who have shown an interest in our online offering or certain features (e.g. interest in specific topics or products determined by the websites visited) that we submit to Google (so-called „Remarketing Audiences“ or „Google Analytics Audiences“). With Remarketing Audiences, we also want to make sure that our ads meet the potential interest of users.
Google AdWords and Conversion-Tracking
We use Google’s online marketing service „AdWords“ to place ads on the Google advertising network (e.g., in search results, in videos, on websites, etc.) to show them to users who have a potential interest in the ads. This allows us to better target advertisements for and within our online offer so that we only present ads to users that potentially match their interests. If a user e.g. sees ads for products he was looking for on other online offers, this is called remarketing. For these purposes, upon access to our and other websites where the Google Advertising Network is active, Google will immediately execute a code and so-called (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as „web beacons „) will be incorporated into the website. With their help, an individual cookie on the device, a small file is saved on the device (instead of cookies, comparable technologies can be used). In this file is noted which web pages the user visited, which content he is interested in and what offers the user has clicked, as well as technical information about the browser and operating system, referring web pages, time of the visit and other information on the use of the online offer.
Furthermore, we receive an individual „conversion cookie“. The information obtained through the cookie is used by Google to generate conversion statistics for us. However, we only receive information about the anonymous total number of users who clicked on our ad and that were redirected to a conversion tracking tag page. We do not receive information that personally identifies users.
The data of the users are processed pseudonymously in the context of the Google advertising network. That means Google stores and processes e.g. not the name or the email address of the users, but processes the relevant data cookie-related within pseudonymous user profiles. That means from the perspective of Google, the ads are not managed and displayed to a specifically identified person, but to the cookie owner, regardless of who the owner of the cookie is. This does not apply if a user has explicitly allowed Google to process the data without this pseudonymisation. The information collected about users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google’s servers in the United States.
If we ask the users for consent (e.g. in the context of a cookie consent), the legal basis of this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a. GDPR. Otherwise, the personal data of the users will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer acc. Art. 6 para. 1 letter f GDPR).
As far as data is processed in the US, we point out that Google is Privacy Shield certified, thereby ensuring compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active)
More information about Google’s data usage, setting options and opt-out can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and Google’s Ads Settings (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).
Jetpack (WordPress Stats)
We use the plugin Jetpack (here the subfunction „WordPress Stats“), from Automattic Inc., 60 29th Street #343, San Francisco, CA 94110, USA, which integrates a tool for statistical analysis of visitor access. Jetpack uses so-called „cookies“, text files that are stored on the device of the user and allow an analysis of the use of the website.
The information generated by the cookie about the use of this online offer is stored on a server in the USA. From the processed data user profiles can be created, being used only for analysis and not for advertising purposes. More information can be found in Automattic’s Privacy Policy: https://automattic.com/privacy/ and Jetpack Cookie Hints: https://jetpack.com/support/cookies/.
If we ask the users for consent (e.g. in the context of a cookie consent), the legal basis of this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a. GDPR. Otherwise, the personal data of the users will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer acc. Art. 6 para. 1 letter f GDPR).
Online presence in social media
We maintain online presence within social networks and platforms in order to communicate with clients, prospects and users and to inform them about our services.
We point out that data of the users outside the area of the European Union can be processed. This may result in risks to users because, e.g. the enforcement of user rights could be made more difficult. With respect to US providers who are Privacy Shield certified, we point out that they are committed to respecting EU privacy standards.
Furthermore, the data of the users are usually processed for market research and advertising purposes. Thus, e.g. user profiles can be created from the user behaviour and the resulting interests of the users. The usage profiles may in turn be used to e.g. place advertisements inside and outside the platforms that are allegedly in line with users‘ interests. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the devices of the users, in which the user behaviour and the interests of the users are stored. Furthermore, in the usage profiles, data can also be stored independently of the devices used by the users (in particular if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them).
The processing of personal data is based on our legitimate interests in an effective information of users and communication with users in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. If the users are asked by the respective providers of the platforms for a consent to the above-mentioned data processing, the legal basis of the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7 GDPR.
For a detailed description of the respective processing and the possibilities of contradiction (opt-out), we refer to the following linked information of the provider.
Also in the case of requests for information and the assertion of user rights, we point out that these can be claimed most effectively directly with the providers. Only the providers have access to the data of the users and can directly take appropriate measures and provide information.

Integration of services and contents of third parties
Based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer acc.

The „pixel tags“ can be used to evaluate information, such as visitor traffic, on this website.
