Privacy Policy for the Use of Google +1

You can use the Google +1 button to share information worldwide. The Google +1 button allows you and other users to receive personalized content from Google and its partners. Google stores both the fact that you gave a piece of content a +1 and information about the page you were viewing when you clicked +1. Your +1s may appear as recommendations alongside your profile name and photo in Google services—such as in search results or on your Google profile—or in other places on websites and in ads across the web.

Google collects information about your +1 activity to improve Google services for you and others.

To use the Google +1 button, you need a globally visible public Google Profile that must contain at least the name chosen for the profile. This name is used across all Google services. In some cases, this name may also replace another name you have used when sharing content via your Google Account. The identity of your Google Profile may be shown to users who know your email address or have other identifying information about you.

In addition to the purposes described above, the information you provide will be used in accordance with Google’s applicable privacy policy (http://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/). Google may publish aggregated statistics about users’ +1 activity or share these statistics with our users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers, or affiliated websites.

Social Plugins

Social media plugins are used on our websites. Information, which may also include personal data, may be sent to the service provider via these plugins and used by them. We prevent the unconscious and unwanted collection and transmission of data to the service provider through a 2-click solution. In order to activate a desired social plugin, it must first be activated by clicking the corresponding switch. Only through this activation of the plugin is the collection of information and its transmission to the service provider triggered. We do not collect any personal data ourselves by means of the social plugins or through their use.

We have no control over what data an activated plugin collects or how that data is used by the provider. At this time, it must be assumed that a direct connection to the provider’s services is established and that, at a minimum, the IP address and device-related information are collected and used. It is also possible that the service providers may attempt to store cookies on the computer you are using. For details on what specific data is collected in this process and how it is used, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective service provider. If you are logged into Facebook at the same time, Facebook may identify you as a visitor to a specific page.

Google AdWords

Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The operator of Google AdWords services is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. If you arrived at our website via an ad placed by Google, Google AdWords will set a cookie on your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google.

If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Every Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information gathered using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.
