Other cookies remain on your end device and enable us to recognize you (so-called «persistent cookies»). If cookies are set, they collect and process certain user information such as browser and location data and IP address values to an individual extent. Persistent cookies will be automatically deleted after a specified period, which may be different depending on the cookie.

7) Online-Marketing

7.1 „Advertising Identifier“

We use the so-called “Advertising Identifier” (IDFA) for advertising purposes. This is a unique, but non-personalized and non-permanent identification number for a specific device, which is provided by iOS. The data collected via the IDFA is not linked to other device-related information. We use the IDFA to provide you with personalized advertising and to be able to evaluate its usage. If you activate the “No ad tracking” option in the iOS settings under “Privacy” – “Advertising”, we can only take the following measures: Measurement of your interaction with banners by counting the number of times a banner is displayed without being clicked on (“frequency capping”), click rate, detection of unique usage (“unique user”) as well as security measures, fraud prevention and troubleshooting. You can delete the IDFS at any time in the device settings (“Reset Ad-ID”), in which case a new IDFA will be created that will not be merged with the data collected previously. We would like to point out that you may not be able to use all the functions of our app if you restrict the use of the IDFA.

7.2 Google AdMob

This app uses Google AdMob, a web advertising service Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Irland (“Google”). Google AdMob uses so-called cookies, in other words text files that are stored on your end device and enable your use of the app to be analyzed. In addition, Google AdMob also uses so-called “web beacons” (small invisible graphics) to collect information, which can be used to record, collect and analyze simple interactions, such as with buttons, within the app. The information generated by the cookie and/or web beacon (including your IP address) about your use of this app is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored there. This may also involve transmission to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.

Google uses the information obtained in this way to evaluate your usage behavior with regard to the AdMob ads. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google AdMob will not be merged with other Google data. The information collected by Google may be transmitted to third parties if this is required by law and/or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.
All processing described above, in particular reading out information on the end device used via cookies and/or web beacons, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR. Without this consent, you will not be able to use our app.

Our apps may include advertising for third party products and services. Advertising includes serving you generic non-personalized advertisements and providing you with personalized advertising experience.

To serve you generic non-personalized advertisements in the apps using third party advertising networks, it is generally necessary to process some data such as your IP address and certain device identifiers that may be considered as personal data. To do this, we rely on our legitimate interest in monetizing our apps. Our legal basis for such processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR.

To serve you personalized advertisements in the apps using third-party advertising networks we will rely on your consent to process necessary data to track the content you access in connection with the apps and your online behavior and to deliver, target and improve advertising in our apps.

You can opt out of personalized advertising on mobile applications by cheking the privacy settings of your Android or iOS device. Pelase note that opting out does not mean that you will stop to see advertisements in our app, rather third-party advertising networks will show you contextual advertisiments not tailored to your interests. Please, be aware that such actions may result in decrease of advertising quality and less enjoyable user experience.

For data transfers to the USA, the provider has signed up to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission.

7.3 Google Ads Conversion-Tracking

This app uses the online advertising program “Google Ads” and, as part of Google Ads, the conversion tracking of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Irland („Google“).

We use Google Ads to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites with the help of advertising material (so-called Google Adwords). We can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are in relation to the advertising campaign data. Our aim is to show you advertising that is of interest to you, to make our app more interesting for you and to achieve a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.

The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your end device. These cookies generally lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this app and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of Google Ads customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers will be informed of 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 that can be used to personally identify users.

As part of the use of Google Ads, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.

Details on the processing triggered by Google Ads Conversion Tracking and how Google handles data from websites can be found here:

https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the terminal device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR. You can withdraw your consent to the use of cookies by Google Ads Conversion Tracking permanently by downloading and installing the Google browser plug-in available at the following link:

https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin?hl=de

In order to target users whose data we have received in the context of business or business-like relationships even more effectively, we use a customer matching function as part of Google Ads. For this purpose, we transmit one or more files with aggregated customer data (primarily email addresses and telephone numbers) to Google electronically. Google does not have access to clear data, but automatically encrypts the information in the customer files during the transmission process using a special algorithm. The encrypted information can then only be used by Google to assign it to existing Google accounts that the affected persons have set up. This enables the personalized advertising to be displayed across all Google services linked to the respective Google account.

Customer data will only be transmitted to Google if you have given us your explicit consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR. You can withdraw this consent against us at any time with effect for the future. Further information on Google’s data protection measures in relation to the customer matching function can be found here: https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/6334160?hl=de&ref_topic=10550182
