Thank you very much for your interest in our company. Data protection is very important to the management of REGIS GmbH
The webpages of REGIS GmbH can generally be used without having to provide any personal data.
However, if a person wishes to make use of special services offered by our company via our website,
it may be necessary to process personal data.
Should the processing of personal data be necessary and there is no legal basis for the processing,
we will generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
The personal data of the data subject (e.g. their name, postal address, email address or
lephone number) is always processed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
and the country-specific data protection regulations that apply to REGIS GmbH.
With this Privacy Policy, our company wishes to inform the public about how, why and to what extent we collect,
use and process personal data. This Privacy Policy also informs data subjects of their corresponding rights.
As the data controller, REGIS GmbH has taken numerous technical and organisational measures to
ensure that the personal data processed via this website is protected as completely as possible.
However, because transferring data over the Internet can generally be prone to security vulnerabilities,
complete protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to provide us
with personal data by alternative means (e.g. telephone).
The Privacy Policy of REGIS GmbH is based on the terminology used by the European regulators and
legislators when issuing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Our Privacy Policy is intended to be easy to read and understood by both the public and our customers
and business partners. In order to ensure that it is, we would like to first of all explain the terminology.
In this Privacy Policy, we use the following terms, among others:
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter ‘data subject’)
An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to
an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors
specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
Data subject means all identified or identifiable natural persons whose personal data is processed by the data controller.
Processing means any operation or set of operations performed on personal data or on sets of personal data,
whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage,
adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or
otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
ERestriction of processing means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its processing in the future.
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate
certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning
that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests,
reliability, behaviour, location or movements.
Pseudonymisation means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer
be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such
additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to
ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Controller, data controller
Controller or data controller means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which,
alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.
Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law,
the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
h) Processor
Processor means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data
on behalf of the controller.
Recipient means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body to which the personal data
is disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the
framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.
Third party means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject,
controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor,
are authorised to process personal data.
Consent means any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s
wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to
the processing of personal data relating to him or her.
The controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation, other data protection laws that
apply in the Member States of the European Union, as well as other data protection-related provisions, is:

The website of REGIS GmbH collects a range of general data and information each time it is
accessed by the data subject or an automated system. This general data and information is
stored in server log files and may include the following: (1) the browser type and version,
(2) the operating system of the requesting system, (3) the webpage from which a requesting
system accesses our website (‘referrer’), (4) the subpages on our website that are
accessed via a requesting system, (5) the date and time that the website is accessed,
(6) the Internet Protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the requesting system
and (8) other similar data and information that serves to avert danger in the event of attacks on our IT systems.
REGIS GmbH cannot use this general data and information to personally identify the data subject.
Rather, this information is needed (1) to deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) to optimise the content
of our website and the advertising of it, (3) to ensure that our IT systems and website technology for
remain permanently functional and (4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information needed for
prosecution purposes in the event of a cyberattack. This anonymously collected data and information is
therefore analysed by REGIS GmbH statistically as well as with the aim of increasing data protection and
data security in our company, in order to ultimately ensure an optimum level of protection of the personal data that we process.
The anonymous data of the server log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by the data subject in Germany.
On the webpages of REGIS GmbH, we use ‘session cookies’ to make it easier for you to use our website.
These are small text files that are stored on your hard drive only for the duration of your visit to
our website and, depending on your browser settings, are deleted again at the end of the browser session.
These cookies do not retrieve any information about you that is stored on your hard drive and they
do not harm your PC or its files. Most browsers are configured to accept cookies automatically.
However, you can block cookies or configure your browser to inform you when cookies are placed.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions
that you wish to use (eg shopping cart function) are processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR saved.
The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically correct
and optimized provision of its services.
Insofar as other cookies (such as cookies for analyzing your surfing behavior) are stored,
they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.
We take the latest technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against
accidental or unlawful deletion, alteration and loss, as well as unauthorised disclosure or access.
Your data will only be shared with the shipping company responsible for the delivery, provided that this
is necessary for delivering the goods. Under no circumstances will your data be shared with third parties.
Our website uses SSL encryption when transmitting confidential or personal content relating to our users.
To ensure that your data is secure during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption procedures (SSL)
via HTTPS. This encryption is activated, for instance, when processing the shopping cart or when
you send us enquiries via our website. SSL-encrypted data cannot be read by third parties.
DAs required by the legal provisions, the website of REGIS GmbH contains information (including an email address)
that enables people to establish contact with our company quickly by electronic means or to communicate directly with us
Contact Form
When the data subject contacts the data controller via one of the contact forms, the personal data
transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored. Such personal data that is transmitted
voluntarily by the data subject to the data controller is stored for processing purposes or for
contacting the data subject. It is not shared with third parties.
The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent
(Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time by sending us a simple message by email.
This will not affect the lawfulness of the data processing carried out up until the withdrawal of consent.
The data that you send us as part of your enquiries will be stored by us until you request that we delete it,
until you withdraw your consent to us storing it, or until the purpose for which it was stored no longer
applies (e.g. after your request has been processed).
The mandatory legal provisions – particularly statutory retention periods – apply in addition.
Email, telephone or fax
If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, your enquiry including all associated personal data (name, message)
will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not share this
data without your consent. The data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is
related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for taking pre-contractual steps.
In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) and/or on our legitimate interests
(Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), as we have a legitimate interest in effectively processing the enquiries sent to us.
The data that you send us as part of your enquiries will be stored by us until you request that we delete it,
until you withdraw your consent to us storing it, or until the purpose for which it was stored no longer
applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). The mandatory legal provisions –
particularly statutory retention periods – apply in addition.
The data subject can register on the website of the data controller by providing personal data.
Which personal data is transmitted to the data controller during this process can be seen
in the input fields that are used for the registration. The personal data entered by the data
subject is collected and stored solely for internal use by the data controller and for its own purposes.
The data controller may arrange for the data to be shared with one or more processors, such as a parcel service,
which will likewise use the personal data solely for internal purposes on behalf of the data controller.
When registering on the website of the data controller, the date and time of the registration is also stored.
We store this data because we believe this is the only way to prevent abuse of our services, and
so that the data can be used to support criminal investigations in the event of an offence.
It is therefore also necessary to store the data to protect the data controller. This data is not generally
shared withthird parties unless there is a legal obligation to do so or unless the data needs to be shared
to support criminal proceedings.
Registration of the data subject through voluntarily provision of personal data enables the data controller to
offer the data subject content or services which, due to their nature, can only be offered to registered users.
Registered persons are free at any time to change the personal data that they provided during registration,
or to have it completely erased from the database of the data controller.
At any time upon request, the data controller will provide the data subject with information about
which of their personal data is held. Furthermore, the data controller will rectify or erase
personal data if requested to do so by the data subject, provided that this does not contravene
any statutory retention obligations. To contact us in relation to this, please use the contact
details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
On the website of REGIS GmbH, users have the option of subscribing to our company’s newsletter.
Which personal data is transferred to the data controller when subscribing to the newsletter can
be seen in the input fields that are used for this purpose. We only require the email address
to set up the newsletter subscription. No other data is collected, or only on a voluntary basis.
REGIS GmbH sends its customers and business partners a regular newsletter, containing information
about company offers. Our company newsletter can only be received by the data subject
if (1) they have a valid email address and (2) they have subscribed to the newsletter.
For legal reasons, a confirmation email is sent to the email address that the data subject provides
when subscribing to the newsletter for the first time (double opt-in process).
This confirmation email is used to check whether the owner of the email address has agreed
to receive the newsletter as the data subject.
When the data subject subscribes to the newsletter, we also store in anonymous form the IP address
assigned by their Internet service provider (ISP) for the computer system used by the data subject
at the time of subscribing, as well as the date and time of subscribing.
This data is collected in order to be able to trace (possible) misuse of the data subject’s email address
at a later point in time; it therefore serves to safeguard the data controller in a legal sense.
The personal data that is collected during the newsletter subscription process is only used to send our newsletter
and is not shared with any third parties. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter can be informed by
email should this be necessary in relation to operating or subscribing to the newsletter service (e.g. changes to
the newsletter service itself or to the technical conditions). The personal data collected in connection with the
newsletter service is not shared with third parties. The data subject can cancel their subscription to our newsletter
at any time. Furthermore, the data subject can at any time withdraw the consent they have given us to store
their personal data for the purpose of sending the newsletter. A link is provided in each newsletter for the
purpose of withdrawing the consent and/or unsubscribing from the newsletter. The data subject can also unsubscribe from
the newsletter at any time directly on the website of the data controller or by informing the data controller in another way.
To contact us in relation to this, please use the contact details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
REGIS GmbH uses CleverReach to send its newsletters. The service is provided by CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG,
Mühlenstr. 43, 26180 Rastede. CleverReach is used to organise and analyse the distribution of newsletters.
The data that you enter when subscribing to the newsletter (e.g. email address) is stored on CleverReach’s servers in Germany and Ireland.
The newsletters contain ‘tracking pixels’. A tracking pixel is a thumbnail image embedded in emails that are sent in HTML format,
in order to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This then makes it possible to analyse the success or failure
of online marketing campaigns. From the embedded pixel code, REGIS GmbH can see whether and when an email was
opened by the data subject, and which links in the email were clicked on by the data subject.
Such personal data that is collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters is stored and
analysed by the data controller in order to optimise the newsletter distribution and to tailor the content
of future newsletters even more closely to the interests of the data subject. This personal data is not shared
with third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to withdraw the corresponding consent that they
have provided separately via the double opt-in process. After the consent has been withdrawn, the personal
data will be erased by the data controller. Unsubscribing from the newsletter will automatically be
interpreted by REGIS GmbH as a withdrawal of consent.
For more information, see the CleverReach privacy policy at:
https://www.cleverreach.com/en/privacy-policy/
The data controller will process and store the data subject’s personal data only for the amount of time needed
to fulfil the purpose of the storage, or for the period prescribed by the European regulators and legislators
or another legislator in laws or regulations that apply to the data controller.
If the purpose of the storage no longer applies or if a storage period prescribed by the European regulators
and legislators or another relevant legislator expires, the personal data will be blocked routinely and in
accordance with the statutory provisions or deleted at the end of the following year.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to request confirmation
from the data controller as to whether personal data relating to them is being processed.
If the data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, they can do so at any time using the
contact data provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to request
at any time (free of charge) that the data controller provides them with information about
which of their personal data is being held, as well as the right to receive a copy of that
information. In addition, the European regulators and legislators have granted the
data subject the right to request the following information:
• the processing purposes
• the categories of personal data processed
• the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or will be disclosed,
especially recipients in third countries and international organisations
• if possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if that is not possible,
the criteria for determining that duration
• the existence of the right to rectification or erasure of personal data, the right to restriction of
processing by the data controller, or the right to object to processing
• the existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
• if the personal data is not collected from the data subject: all available information concerning
the origin of the data
• the existence of an automated decision-making process including profiling pursuant to
Art. 22(1) and (4) GDPR and – at least in these cases – meaningfull information
about the logic involved, as well as the scope and intended effects of this
processing on the data subject
The data subject also has the right to know whether personal data has been transferred to a third country
or to an international organisation. Should this be the case, the data subject also has the right to
receive information about appropriate guarantees in connection with the transmission of data.
If the data subject wishes to exercise this right to be informed, they can do so at any time using the contact
etails provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to request that their
personal data is rectified immediately if it is inaccurate. Depending on the processing purpose,
the data subject also has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data;
this may involve providing a supplementary statement to the incomplete data.
If the data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, they can do so at any time using the
contact details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to demand that
the data controller immediately erases their personal data if one of the following reasons
applies and if the processing is not necessary:
• The personal data has been collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which it is no longer needed.
• The data subject withdraws their consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR
or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
• The data subject objects to the processing in accordance with Art. 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate
reasons for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing in accordance with Art. 21(2) GDPR.
• The personal data has been processed unlawfully.
• The deletion of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation under Union law or the Member State
law that applies to the controller.
• The personal data was collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Art. 8(1) GDPR
If one of the aforementioned reasons applies and the data subject wants to request the deletion of their
personal data that is held by REGIS GmbH, they can do so at any time using the contact details provided
at the end of this Privacy Policy. The employees of REGIS GmbH will arrange for the deletion request to
be met immediately, provided that there is no statutory retention obligation. If such an obligation does
exist, we will block their data on request.
If the personal data has been made public by REGIS GmbH, and if our company is obliged to delete the personal
data in accordance with Art. 17(1) GDPR, then REGIS GmbH, taking into account the available technology and
the implementation costs, will take appropriate measures (including technical ones) to inform other
data controllers who process the published personal data that the data subject has requested that
they delete all links to this personal data or copies or replications of the data if processing is
not necessary. The employees of REGIS GmbH will initiate the necessary steps in individual cases.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to request that the
ata controller restricts the processing of their personal data if one of the following reasons applies:
• The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject; in such case, processing can be restricted while
the accuracy is being verified by the controller.
• The personal data has been unlawfully processed and, instead of erasure, the data subject requests restriction of use.
• The controller no longer needs the personal data for the processing purposes, but the data subject needs it to establish,
exercise or defend legal rights.
• The data subject has objected to the processing in accordance with Art. 21(1) GDPR and it is not yet clear whether
the legitimate reasons of the controller override those of the data subject.
If one of the aforementioned circumstances applies and the data subject wishes to request that the processing
of personal data held by REGIS GmbH is restricted, they can do so at any time using the contact details provided
at the end of this Privacy Policy. The employees of REGIS GmbH will initiate the restriction of the processing.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to request that the
personal data that they have provided to the controller is made available to them in a structured,
commonly used and machine-readable format. The data subject also has the right to send this data
to another controller without interference from the data controller to whom the personal data has
been made available, provided that the processing is based on the consent pursuant to
Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and
the processing is carried out by automated means, provided that the processing is not necessary
for the controller to carry out a task that is related to exercising official authority or
in the public interest.
When exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20(1) GDPR, the data subject also has
the right to have the personal data transferred directly from one controller to another, insofar as
this is technically feasible and does not infringe the rights and freedoms of other persons.
If the data subject wishes to exercise their right to data transferability, they can do so at any time using
he contact details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to object at any time,
on grounds relating to their particular situation, to their personal data being processed on the basis
of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
If the data subject exercises their right to object, REGIS GmbH will no longer process their personal data,
unless we can provide compelling legitimate grounds for doing so that outweigh their interests, rights
and freedoms, or if the processing is necessary for establishing, exercising or defending legal rights.
If REGIS GmbH processes personal data for the purpose of conducting direct marketing, the data subject
has the right to object at any time to their personal data being processed for this purpose.
This also applies to profiling if it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects
to REGIS GmbH processing the data for direct marketing purposes, then REGIS GmbH will no longer process
the personal data for these purposes.
Furthermore, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to their particular situation,
to object to their personal data being processed by REGIS GmbH for scientific or historical
research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) GDPR, unless such
processing is necessary for carrying out a task in the public interest.
If the data subject wishes to exercise their right to object, they can do so at any time using the contact
details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
Furthermore, in connection with the use of information society services, the data subject is also free to exercise
their right to object by automated means using technical specifications, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to not be subjected to
solely automated decision-making (including profiling) that has legal or similarly significant effects
on them, provided that the decision (1) is not necessary for the conclusion or performance of a
contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is permitted under Union or Member State
law that applies to the controller, and these legal provisions contain adequate measures to
protect the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or (3) is made with
the explicit consent of the data subject.
If the decision (1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject
and the controller or (2) is made with the explicit consent of the data subject, REGIS GmbH will take
appropriate measures to protect the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject,
including at least the right to human intervention on the part of the controller, the right to put
forward one’s own position and the right to contest the decision.
If the data subject wishes to exercise rights relating to automated decision-making, they can do so at
any time using the contact details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
The European regulators and legislators have granted all data subjects the right to withdraw at any time
their consent to the processing of personal data.
If the data subject wishes to exercise their right to withdraw consent, they can do so at any time using the
contact details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
The data controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the
application process. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case
if an applicant sends their application documents to the data controller by electronic means,
such as by email or via an online form on the website. If the data controller concludes an employment
contract with an applicant, the transferred data is stored for the purpose of executing the
employment relationship in accordance with the legal provisions. If the data controller does
not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically
deleted two months after the applicant has been notified that their application has been unsuccessful,
provided that the deletion would not be in conflict with other legitimate interests of the data controller.
Other legitimate interests in this sense include the duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the
General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).
<Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for our company with regard to processing operations for
which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is
necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, the processing
is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR; this may be the case, for instance, with processing operations that
are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration.
The same applies to processing operations that are necessary for taking pre-contractual steps, such as
in the case of enquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation
that requires personal data to be processed, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing
is based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary to
protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case,
for instance, if someone visiting our company suffered an injury, making it necessary to share their name,
age, health insurance details or other vital information with a doctor, hospital or other third party.
In such instance, the processing would be based on Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR. Lastly, processing operations may
be based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned
legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest
of our company or a third party, provided that these are not overridden by the interests, fundamental rights
and basic freedoms of the data subject. We are especially permitted to carry out such processing operations
because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislators, who took the view that a legitimate
interest can be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (recital 47(2) GDPR).
If personal data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest is conducting our
business for the benefit of all our employees and shareholders.
The criterion for the storage duration of personal data is the legal retention period that applies in each case.
After expiry of this period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted at the end of the following year,
unless it is no longer required to perform or initiate a contract.
We make you aware that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may
be required due to contractual provisions (e.g. details of the contracting partner). To conclude a contract,
it may sometimes be necessary for the data subject to provide us with personal data that subsequently needs
to be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data when they
conclude a contract with our company. If the necessary personal data is not provided, it would not be possible
to conclude the contract with the data subject. Before the data subject provides personal data, they can contact
one of our employees. Our employee will inform the data subject in each case whether the provision of personal data
is required by law or contract or is necessary in order to conclude a contract, whether there is an obligation
to provide the personal data, and what the consequences of not providing the personal data would be.
As a responsible company, we choose not to engage in automated decision-making or profiling.
The data controller has integrated Google AdWords on this website. Google AdWords is an online advertising
service that allows advertisers to publish ads both in Google search engine results and within the Google
advertising network. Google AdWords enables an advertiser to pre-define certain keywords that will be used
to display an ad in Google’s search engine results only when a user performs a search-engine search containing
those keywords. In the Google advertising network, the ads are distributed to content-relevant websites by
means of an automatic algorithm on the basis of the pre-defined keywords.
The Google AdWords service is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
We use Google AdWords for the purpose of promoting our website by displaying interest-based ads on the
websites of third parties and in the search results of the Google search engine.
If the data subject lands on our website via a Google ad, Google places a ‘conversion cookie’ on the
data subject’s computer system. What cookies are has already been explained above.
A conversion cookie expires after thirty days and cannot be used to identify the data subject.
If the conversion cookie has not yet expired, it can be used to track whether certain subpages,
such as the shopping cart of an online shop system, ave been accessed on our website.
The conversion cookie enables both us and Google to track whether a person who landed on our website
via an AdWords ad generated a conversion, i.e. completed or aborted the purchase process.
The data and information collected through using the conversion cookie is used by Google to compile
visitor statistics for our website. These visitor statistics are in turn used by us to determine the
total number of users who were referred to us via AdWords ads, i.e. to determine the success or
failure of the respective AdWords ad and to optimise our AdWords ads for the future.
Neither our company nor other Google AdWords customers receive any information from
Google that could be used to personally identify them.
The conversion cookie is used to store personal information, such as the webpages visited by the
data subject. Each time the data subject visits our website, personal data, including the IP address
of their Internet connection, is transmitted to Google in the USA, where it is then stored by Google.
The information that Google collects through the technical process may be forwarded to third parties
under certain circumstances.
By changing the corresponding setting in their web browser, the data subject can at any time disable and
permanently reject cookies from our website. Configuring the web browser in such a way would also prevent
Google from placing a conversion cookie on the computer system of the data subject. In addition,
a cookie that has already been placed by Google AdWords can be deleted at any time via the web
browser or other software programs.
The data subject can also object to interest-based advertising by Google. To do so, the data subject
must click on the link https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated from any web browser
that they are using and configure the desired settings there.
More information and Google’s current privacy policy can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
The data controller has integrated the component Matomo on this website. Matomo is an open-source software
tool used for web analytics. Web analytics is the process of collecting and analysing data about the behaviour
of website visitors. Among other things, a web analytics tool collects the following data: the website from
which the data subject accesses a certain webpage (‘referrer’); which subpages of the website are accessed;
how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. It may also include the access time, the location from which
the visit originated, and the frequency of visits to our website. A web analytics tool is used mainly for the
purpose of optimising a website and measuring the ROI of digital advertising.
The software is operated on the server of the data controller; the log files containing sensitive data are
stored exclusively on this server in Germany.
The purpose of the Matomo component is to analyse visitor traffic on our website. Among other things,
the data controller uses the acquired data and information to analyse the use of this website and
to compile online reports about the activity on our website.
Matomo places a cookie on the computer system of the data subject. What cookies are has already been
explained above. The cookie that is placed enables us to analyse the use of our website.
Each time an individual page of this website is accessed, the web browser on the data subject’s computer
system is automatically prompted by the Matomo component to transmit data to our server for web analytics purposes.
