With the help of the Facebook Pixel, Facebook is able to determine you as a visitor of our online presence and as a target group for the presentation of ads (so-called "Facebook ads"). Accordingly, we use the Facebook Pixel to display the Facebook ads placed by us only to Facebook users who have shown an interest in our online presence or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products that are determined on the basis of the websites visited) that we transmit to Facebook (so-called "custom audiences"). Using Facebook Pixels, we also want to ensure that our Facebook ads match the potential interest of users and are not annoying. Using Facebook Pixels, we can further track the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing if users were referred to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (known as "conversion").

  Facebook processes the data in accordance with Facebook's data usage policy. Accordingly, general instructions on the presentation of Facebook ads can be found in Facebook's data usage policy. Specific information and details about Facebook Pixels and how they work can be found in the help section of Facebook.
• EU-US Privacy Shield
  Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus offers a guarantee of compliance with European Data Protection law.
• Foundation
  The use of Facebook Pixel and the storage of "conversion cookies" is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. We have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both our website and our advertising.
• Order data processing contract
  For the processing of the data for which Facebook acts as an order data processor, we have concluded an order data processing agreement with Facebook in which we oblige Facebook to protect the data of our customers and not to pass it on to third parties.
• Objection
  Although we publish our legitimate interest in using Facebook Pixel and storing "conversion cookies," we also offer opt-out options. You may opt out of Facebook Pixel collection and use of your information to display Facebook Ads. To set what types of ads you see within Facebook, you can go to the page set up by Facebook and follow the instructions on how to set up usage-based ads.  The settings are platform-independent, which means they are applied to all devices, such as desktop computers or mobile devices. You may object to the use of cookies to measure range and for advertising purposes via the Network Advertising Initiative's opt-out page, and also via the U.S. aboutads.info website or the European youronlinechoices.com website.
