We employ the so-called Facebook Pixel of the Facebook social network operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter: “Facebook”).

Facebook Pixel enables Facebook to identify you, as a viewer of our online content, as a target for the display of advertisements (so-called Facebook ads). Correspondingly, we use the Facebook Pixel to ensure that our Facebook ads are shown solely to those Facebook users who have also indicated an interest in our online offerings, or who exhibit certain characteristics (e.g., an interest in certain topics or products that has been identified on the basis of the web pages they have visited), which we in turn transfer to Facebook (so-called custom audiences). With the help of the Facebook Pixel, we also wish to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interests of users and do not have an irritating effect. The Facebook Pixel also helps us to assess the efficacy of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes, by enabling us to see whether users were transferred to our website by clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called conversion).

The data collected in this manner have been anonymised before we, the operator of the website, use them. We are thus unable to draw any conclusions as to the identity of the users in question. These data are however stored and processed by Facebook in such a way that a connection to a given user profile is possible and Facebook can further employ the data for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with Facebook data processing guidelines. As a result, Facebook can enable the placement of advertisements on its pages and elsewhere. We, as webpage operators, are unable to influence this use of data.

General information on the processing of the data by Facebook and the display of Facebook ads can be found in Facebook’s guidelines for the use of data, via https://www.facebook.com/policy.php. Special information and details on the Facebook Pixel and how it functions can be found via: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/651294705016616.

If you have a Facebook account, you can object to the collection of your data by means of the Facebook Pixel and the use of your data in connection with the display of Facebook ads. To determine which types of advertisements are presented to you within Facebook, you can retrieve the relevant Facebook page for this purpose, and follow the instructions for adjusting the settings for user-based advertising:  https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads. To do so, one must be registered with Facebook. The settings are platform-independent, i.e., they are accepted for all devices, be they mobile or desk-top based.

If you do not have a Facebook account, you can deactivate user-based advertising from Facebook via the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/.

Alternatively, you can block the collection of your data on our page by means of the Facebook Pixel by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be installed in your browser, which will block the collection of your data when you visit our website again with your present browser.

Our website features plugins by the video portal Vimeo of Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.
