This tool does not automatically transfer user data to the operators of these platforms. If users are logged into one or more of the social networks, the Like, +1, and Share buttons will display an information window in which the user can edit the text before it is sent.

Your +1 can be displayed together with your profile name and photo in Google services, for example in search results or in your Google profile, or in other places on websites and advertisements on the Internet.

Google records information about your +1 activities to improve Google services for you and others. To use the Google + button, you need a globally visible, public Google profile that must contain at least the name chosen for the profile. This name is used by all Google services. In some cases, this name may also replace a different name that you have used to share content via your Google account. The identity of your Google profile can be shown to users who know your email address or other information that can identify you.

Use of collected data: In addition to the uses mentioned above, the information you provide is used in accordance with the applicable Google data protection policies. Google may publish summary statistics about users' +1 activity or share it with users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers, or affiliate websites.

INFOnline

Our website uses the INFOnline GmbH measurement method ("SZMnG") (www.INFOnline.de) to determine statistical parameters about the use of our services. The aim of the usage measurement is to statistically determine the number of visits to our website, the number of website visitors and their surfing behaviour - on the basis of a uniform standard procedure - and thus to obtain comparable market values.

For all digital offers made by members of the Informationsgemeinschaft zur Feststellung der Verbreitung von Werbeträgern e.V. (Information Association for the Determination of the Distribution of Advertising Media), the following applies (IVW - www.ivw.eu) or to the studies of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Online-Forschung e.V. (Online Research Association). (AGOF - www.agof.de), the usage statistics are regularly compiled by AGOF and the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Media-Analyse e.V. (Media Analysis Association). (agma - www.agma-mmc.de) and published with the performance value "Unique User" and by the IVW with the performance values "Page Impression" and "Visits". These ranges and statistics can be viewed on the respective websites.

1. legal basis for the processing
The measurement by INFOnline GmbH using the measurement method SZMnG is carried out with justified interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO.
The purpose of processing personal data is to compile statistics and create user categories. The statistics serve to trace and document the use of our offer. The user categories form the basis for an interest-oriented orientation of advertising media or advertising measures. In order to market this website, it is essential to measure its usage in order to ensure comparability with other market participants. Our justified interest results from the economic usability of the knowledge resulting from the statistics and user categories and the market value of our web page - also in direct comparison with web pages of third parties - which can be determined on the basis of the statistics. In addition, we have a legitimate interest in making the pseudonymised data available to INFOnline, AGOF and IVW for market research (AGOF, agma) and statistical purposes (INFOnline, IVW). Furthermore, we have a legitimate interest in making the pseudonymised data available to INFOnline for the further development and provision of advertising media in line with our interests.

2. type of data
The INFOnline GmbH collects the following data, which according to EU-DSGVO have a personal reference:
• IP address: In the Internet, every device needs a unique address to transmit data, the so-called IP address. The at least short-term storage of the IP address is technically necessary due to the functioning of the Internet. The IP addresses are shortened by 1 byte before any processing and are only anonymized. are further processed. There will be no storage or further processing of the unabridged IP addresses.
• A randomly generated client identifier: Reach processing uses either a third-party cookie, a first-party cookie, a local storage object, or a signature created from various automatically transmitted information from your browser to recognize computer systems. This identifier is unique to a browser as long as the cookie or local storage object is not deleted. A measurement of the data and subsequent assignment to the respective client identifier is therefore also possible if you call up other websites that also use the INFOnline GmbH measurement method ("SZMnG").
The validity of the cookie is limited to a maximum of 1 year.

3. use of the data
The INFOnline GmbH measurement method used on this website collects usage data. This is done in order to collect the performance values of page impressions, visits and clients and to form further key figures (e.g. qualified clients). In addition, the measured data are used as follows:
• A so-called geolocalization, i.e. the assignment of a website call to the location of the call, takes place exclusively on the basis of the anonymous IP address and only up to the geographical level of the federal states / regions. In no case can the geographical information obtained in this way be used to draw conclusions about the actual whereabouts of a user.
• The usage data of a technical client (e.g. a browser on a device) is merged across websites and stored in a database. This information is used for the technical assessment of the socioinformation on age and gender and transferred to AGOF's service providers for further coverage processing. The AGOF study uses a random sample to technically assess socio-characteristics that can be assigned to the following categories: Age, gender, nationality, professional activity, marital status, general household information, household income, place of residence, Internet use, online interests, place of use, user type.

4. storage time of the data
The complete IP address is not stored by INFOnline GmbH. The shortened IP address is stored for a maximum of 60 days. The usage data in conjunction with the unique identifier are stored for a maximum of 6 months.

5. transmission of the data
The IP address and the shortened IP address are not passed on. For the preparation of the AGOF study, data with client identifiers will be passed on to the following AGOF service providers:
• Kantar Deutschland GmbH (www.tns-infratest.com)
• Ankordata GmbH & Co. KG (www.ankordata.de/homepage/)
• Interrogare GmbH (www.interrogare.de)

6. rights of the affected person

Newsletter data

If you would like to receive our newsletter, we require a valid email address as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified email address and that you agree to receive this newsletter. No additional data is collected or is only collected on a voluntary basis. We only use this data to send the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

We will, therefore, process any data you enter onto the contact form only with your consent per Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke consent to the storage of your data and email address as well as their use for sending the newsletter at any time, e.g. through the "unsubscribe" link in the newsletter. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

The data provided when registering for the newsletter will be used to distribute the newsletter until you cancel your subscription when said data will be deleted. Data we have stored for other purposes (e.g. email addresses for the members area) remain unaffected.

The data you enter to subscribe to the newsletter (e.g. e-mail address) is stored on the servers of Mailjet.

Our newsletters sent with Mailjet enable us to analyse the behaviour of the newsletter recipients. Among other things, it is possible to analyse how many recipients have opened the newsletter message and how often which link in the newsletter was clicked on. Conversion tracking can also be used to analyse whether a pre-defined action (e.g. purchase of a product on our website) was carried out after clicking on the link in the newsletter.

For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g. IP address, how long the visitor has been on the website, or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis will be forwarded to Google.

The reCAPTCHA analyses take place completely in the background. Website visitors are not advised that such an analysis is taking place.
