  1. Use of the scalable central measuring method (SZM)

(1) Our website uses the measurement method ("SZMnG") of INFOnline GmbH (https://www.infonline.de ) to determine statistical parameters about the use of our offers. The aim of the range measurement is to statistically determine the intensity of use, the number of users of a website and surfing behavior - on the basis of a uniform standard method - and thus obtain values that are comparable across the market.

For web offers that are members of the information community for determining the spread of advertising media e. V. (IVW - http://www.ivw.eu ) or in the studies of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Online-Forschung e. V. (AGOF - http://www.agof.de ) take part, the usage statistics are regularly collected by AGOF and Arbeitsgemeinschaft Media-Analyze e. V. (agma - http://www.agma-mmc.de ), as well as the IVW and can be viewed on the respective websites.

  1. Data processing

INFOnline GmbH collects and processes data in accordance with German data protection law. Technical and organizational measures ensure that individual users cannot be identified at any time. Data that may be related to a specific, identifiable person will be anonymized as early as possible.

1.1 anonymization of the IP address

On the Internet, every device needs a unique address, the so-called IP address, to transmit data. The at least short-term storage of the IP address is technically necessary due to the way the Internet works. The IP addresses are shortened before any processing and only further processed anonymously. There is no storage or processing of the unabridged IP addresses.

1.2 Geolocation down to the level of the federal states / regions

A so-called geolocation, i.e. the assignment of a website call to the location of the call, takes place exclusively on the basis of the anonymized IP address and only up to the geographical level of the federal states / regions. Under no circumstances can a conclusion be drawn about the specific place of residence of a user from the geographical information obtained in this way.

1.3 Identification number of the device

The range measurement alternatively uses either a cookie with the identifier “ioam.de”, a “Local Storage Object” or an anonymous signature that is created from various automatically transmitted information from your browser to recognize computer systems. The validity of the cookie is limited to a maximum of 1 year.

1.4 Login ID

To measure distributed usage (use of a service by different devices), the user ID can be transmitted to INFOnline as an anonymous checksum when logging in, if available.

  1. deletion

The stored usage processes are deleted after 7 months at the latest.

  1. Contradiction

If you do not want to take part in the measurement, you can object under the following link: http://optout.ioam.de

Further information on data protection in the measurement process can be found on the INFOnline GmbH website (https://www.infonline.de ), which operates the measurement process, the data protection website of the AGOF (http://www.agof.de/datenschutz ) and the data protection website of the IVW (http://www.ivw.eu ).

  • 16 Use of Google Adwords Conversion Tracking
    We use the online advertising program “Google AdWords” and conversion tracking as part of Google AdWords. Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). If you click on an advertisement placed by Google, a conversion tracking cookie will be placed on your computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days, contain no personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification.
    If you visit certain Internet pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can see that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Every Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. This means that there is no way that cookies can be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers.
    The information that is obtained using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Here, customers find out the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified.
    If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly (deactivation option). You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. You can find more information and Google's privacy policy at: http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/, http://www.google.de/policies/privacy/
