Use of Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, in the event that IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before this happens.
Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activities and to provide further services to the website operator in connection with the use of the website and the Internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google.
The legal basis for processing is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 s. 1 a GDPR. Once you have given your consent, you can revoke it here at any time with effect for the future. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.
Google Ads
Google Ads allows us to combine our ads with certain search terms. These ads can be displayed on websites in the Google advertising network when you enter search queries. We also use remarketing lists for search ads. This allows us to customize search ad campaigns for users who have visited our site before. The services allow us to combine our ads with specific search terms or to serve ads to previous visitors, such as advertising services that visitors have viewed on our site. When you click on an ad or visit our website, Google places a cookie on your computer. This information is used in order to be able to address the visitor specifically in a subsequent search query. To do this, a so-called double click cookie is typically sent to the browser when a user views a page containing double click ads. For information on the double click cookie technology used, click here. You can also find further information in Google's website statistics and privacy policy.
With the help of this technology, Google and we as a customer receive information about when a user has clicked on an ad and been redirected to our websites to contact us via the contact form. The information obtained in this way is used exclusively for statistical evaluation for ad optimisation. We do not receive any information with which visitors can be personally identified. The statistics provided to us by Google include the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and, if applicable, whether they were redirected to a page on our website that is tagged with a conversion tag. These statistics allow us to see which search terms have led to the most clicks on our ads and which ads have led to a contact via the contact form.
Purpose of processing:
We use Google Ads and, in this context, Google Conversion Tracking to draw attention to our current projects and developments, planned activities and services. Within the Google advertising network, our ads are distributed on topic-related search results and websites based on keywords that we define.
Legal basis:
Legal basis for the processing of your data is your consent according to Art. 6 s. 1 a GDPR. Once you have given your consent, you can revoke it here with effect for the future.
Duration of data storage:
Information on the duration of storage can be obtained from the provider or under policies.google.com/privacy. The cookie is deleted after three months.
Google Tag Manager
For transparency reasons, we would like to point out that we use the Google Tag Manager of the provider Google Ireland Limited (registration number: 368047), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. The Google Tag Manager itself does not collect any personal data. The Google Tag Manager makes it easier for us to integrate and manage our tags. Tags are small pieces of code that are used to measure traffic and visitor behavior, measure the impact of online advertising and social channels, set up remarketing and targeting, and test and optimize websites, among other things. We use the Tag Manager for the Google Analytics service. If you have deactivated the service, the Google Tag Manager will take this deactivation into account. For more information about Google Tag Manager, please visit: https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/tag-manager/use-policy/
Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense, an online advertising service provided by Google LLC, located at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google AdSense uses cookies that are stored on your computer and collect statistical information about you, which is processed by our advertising partners. We use Google AdSense in order to present you with advertising customized to your interests. By visiting our website, Google receives the information that you have visited our website. Your data is transferred to the USA and evaluated there. If you are logged in with your Google account, your data can be directly assigned to it. If you do not want the assignment with your Google profile, you must log out. It is possible that this data is passed on to contractual partners of Google as well as to third parties and authorities. This website has also activated Google AdSense ads from third parties. The aforementioned data may be transferred to these third party providers (named at https://support.google.com/admanager/answer/94149?hl=en).
The personal data is transferred to the USA under the EU-US Privacy Shield based on the adequacy decision of the European Commission. You can retrieve the certificate here: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI
You can prevent the installation of cookies from Google AdSense by deactivating interest-related ads on Google via the link https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en. In addition, you can deactivate interest-based ads from providers that are part of the self-regulation campaign "About Ads" by clicking on the link https://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2&lang=EN. Both deactivation settings are deleted when you delete your cookies. You can also permanently deactivate them in Firefox, Internetexplorer or Google Chrome by clicking on the link https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. However, it is possible that full use of all functions of this offer is then not possible.

This site uses LinkedIn services to improve the user experience on our site, to enable you to apply for jobs through LinkedIn, to make it easier for you to use the LinkedIn social network, and to contact other LinkedIn users. Provider is LinkedIn Corporation, 599 N Mathilda Ave, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, USA.
LinkedIn receives information about your visits to and interactions with the LinkedIn services we offer, such as when you sign up through LinkedIn or use plug-ins (e.g., "Share with LinkedIn" or "Apply with LinkedIn"). When you use the LinkedIn services on our website, LinkedIn uses your login information, cookies, device information, and Internet Protocol ("IP") addresses to identify you and log your use.

If you are a member of the provider's social network and are logged in to the social network during your visit to this site, your data and information about your visit to this site may be linked to your social network profile. We have no influence on the exact scope of the data collected by the provider about you.

In cases in which you expressly consent to the processing of your data, e.g. if you, as a LinkedIn member, agree to our request for access to your resources on LinkedIn, your consent is the legal basis for data processing (Art. 7 GDPR). In other cases, e.g. if you apply to us via LinkedIn, the processing of your personal data is necessary for the establishment of the employment relationship (Art. 6 s. 1 b GDPR and Paragraph 26 BDSG [Bundesdatenschutzgesetz/Federal Data Protection Act]). Furthermore, our legitimate interest in processing your data is justified by the above-mentioned purposes (Art. 6 s. 1 f GDPR).
