6. SOCIAL MEDIA

6.1. We use social media plugins as follows:

  • We currently use the following Social media plugins: [Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google]. We use the so-called two-click solution. In other words, when you visit our site, no personal information is initially sent to the providers of the plugins. You can recognise the plugin providers via the mark on the box above its first letter, or its logo. We offer you the possibility to communicate directly with the plugin provider by using the button. The plugin provider will only receive the information that you have opened the applicable website of our online offering once you activate it by clicking on the selected field. In addition, the data referred to in § 3 of this Policy shall be transmitted. In the case of Facebook and Xing, according to the requirements of the respective providers in Germany, the IP address will be anonymised immediately after collection. By activating the plugin, personal data will be sent to the respective plugin provider and stored there (with US-American suppliers, storage will take place in the USA). Since the plugin provider collects the data in particular via cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies before you click on the greyed-out box via your browser’s security settings.
  • We do not have any influence on the data collected and processing methods, nor are we aware of the full scope of the data collection, the purposes of the processing, or the storage durations. Nor do we have any information on the deletion of the data collected by the plugin provider.
  • The plugin provider stores the data collected about you as a user profile and uses it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or design of its website as required. Such an evaluation is made in particular (also for users who are not logged in) to display advertising on demand and to inform other users of the social network about their activities on our website. You have the right to object to the formation of these user profiles, which must be exercised by contacting the respective plugin provider. The plugins allow us to offer you the opportunity to interact with social networks and other users, so that we can improve our offering and make it more interesting for you as a user. The legal basis for the use of the plugins is Article 6 (1)(1)(f) GDPR.
  • The data is passed on regardless of whether you have an account with the plugin provider and are logged in. If you are logged in to the plugin provider, the personal data collected from us will be assigned directly to your plugin provider’s existing account. If you click the activation button and, for example, link the page, the plugin provider also saves this information to your user account and communicates it to your contacts publicly. After using a social network, we recommend that you log out regularly, especially before activating the button, so you can avoid assignments to your profile by the plugin provider.

7. ONLINE ADVERTISING

7.1. We use Google Adwords in order to draw attention to our attractive offerings on external websites with the support of advertising media (so-called Google Adwords). In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. Our interests here lie in showing you advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you and achieving a fair calculation of advertising costs.

7.2. These advertising media are delivered by Google via so-called “Ad Servers”. To do this, we use Ad Server cookies, through which certain parameters for measuring success, such as the display of ads or clicks by users, are measured. If you access our website through a Google ad, Google Adwords will store a cookie on your PC. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and should not be used to identify you personally. The analysis values of the unique cookie ID, the number of Ad Impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view-conversions) as well as opt-out information (noting that the user no longer wishes to be addressed) are all stored on this cookie.

7.3. These cookies allow Google to recognise your Internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of the website of an Adwords customer, and the cookie stored on their computer has not yet expired, Google and the customer can see that the user clicked on the ad and was forwarded to this page. Each Adwords customer is assigned a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked via the websites of Adwords customers. We do not personally collect or process any personal data in the aforementioned advertising measures. We are only provided with statistical evaluations by Google. Based on these evaluations, we can see which of the advertising measures used are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of the advertising media, and in particular we cannot identify users on the basis of this information.

7.4. Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and continued use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool, and therefore inform you in accordance with our best knowledge: by incorporating AdWords Conversion, Google will receive information that you have visited the corresponding part of our website or have clicked on a message from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google may assign your visit to your account. Even if you are not registered or logged in to Google, it is possible that the provider will know and store your IP address.

7.5. You can prevent participation in this tracking procedure in several ways: a) by setting your browser software appropriately, in particular, the suppression of third-party cookies means that you will not receive any third-party ads; b) by disabling cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com” , https://www.google.de/settings/ads however these settings will be deleted if you delete your cookies; c) by disabling the interest-based ads of the providers that are part of the self-regulation campaign “About Ads “ via the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices, however these settings will be deleted if you delete your cookies; d) by permanently disabling your browsers Firefox, Internet Explorer or Google Chrome under the link http://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. We would point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of this offering in its entirety.

7.6. The legal basis for the processing of your data is Article 6 (1)(1)(f) GDPR. You can find more information about Google’s privacy policy here: https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html. Alternatively, you can visit the website of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) at http://www.networkadvertising.org. Google has become a subject of the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

8. OPPOSITION OR REVOCATION AGAINST THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA

8.1. If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you can revoke it at any time. Such revocation affects the admissibility of the processing of your personal data after you have stated it against us.

8.2. In so far as we uphold the processing of your personal data on the balancing of interests, you can appeal against said processing. This is the case in particular if the processing is not necessary to fulfil a contract with you, which is presented by us in the following description of the functions. If you exercise such an opposition, we request an explanation of the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your reasoned opposition, we will examine the situation and either adjust or adapt the data processing or indicate to you our compelling reasons for which we will continue processing.

8.3. Of course, you may at any time object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of advertising and data analysis. You can inform us about your opposition to advertising by emailing: hbg.dataprotection@macandrews.com.
