When using the cancellation function, in addition to information identifying the contract to be cancelled, further personal information such as the consumer's first and last name as well as their email address must be provided or confirmed. This information is initially collected by the provider on the basis of our legitimate interest in a user-friendly, stable, and process-optimized solution in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, then used to confirm the receipt of the cancellation statement on our behalf via email, and finally transmitted to us. We subsequently process the transmitted information for the proper handling of the cancellation in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR and Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR on the basis of our legal obligation to provide an electronic cancellation function for distance consumer contracts subject to payment. The information collected by the provider is routinely deleted after final processing of a cancellation, provided that there are no statutory retention obligations to the contrary.

With the help of cookies and/or comparable technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, algorithms for reading device and browser information), the service collects and stores pseudonymized visitor data, including information about the end device used, such as the IP address and browser information, in order to evaluate it for statistical analyses of user behavior on our website and to create pseudonymized user profiles. Among other things, this enables the evaluation of movement patterns (so-called heatmaps), which show the duration of page visits as well as interactions with page content (e.g., text inputs, scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs). Pseudonymization generally excludes a direct personal reference. A merging with clear data collected about your person in another way does not take place.

All processing operations described above, in particular the reading or storing of information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by disabling this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

10) Retargeting/ Remarketing and Conversion Tracking

Meta Pixel with Advanced Data Matching

Within our online offer, we use the service "Meta Pixel" in advanced data matching mode of the following provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Meta")

If a user clicks on an advertisement placed by us on Facebook or Instagram, the URL of our linked page is expanded by a parameter using "Meta Pixel". This URL parameter is then entered into the user's browser after redirection by a cookie that our linked page sets itself. In addition, this cookie records specific customer data, such as the email address, which we collect on our website linked to the Facebook or Instagram ad during transactions such as purchases, account logins, or registrations (advanced data matching). The cookie is then read and enables the transmission of the data, including the specific customer data, to Meta.

We use "Meta Pixel" with advanced data matching to make our advertisements (so-called "Ads") on Facebook and/or Instagram more effective and to ensure that they correspond to the interests of the users or feature specific characteristics (e.g., interests in certain topics or products determined on the basis of the websites visited) that we transmit to Meta (so-called "Custom Audiences").

In addition, we analyze the effectiveness of our advertisements by tracking whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on an advertisement (conversion). Compared to the standard version of "Meta Pixel", the advanced data matching function helps us to better measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns by recording more assigned conversions.

All transmitted data is stored and processed by Meta so that an assignment to the respective user profile is possible and Meta can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with Meta's Data Policy (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). The data may enable Meta and its partners to display ads on and off Facebook.

All processing operations described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by disabling this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our website visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

The information generated by Meta is generally transmitted to a Meta server and stored there; in this context, it may also be transmitted to servers of Meta Platforms Inc. in the USA.

For data transmissions to the USA, the provider has joined the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with European data protection standards on the basis of an adequacy decision of the European Commission.

11) Page Functionalities

11.1 Facebook Plugins

Plugins of the social network of the following provider are used on our website: Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland

These plugins enable direct interactions with content on the social network.

To increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are initially integrated into the page in a deactivated state by means of a so-called "2-click" or "Shariff" solution.

This integration ensures that when a page of our website that contains such plugins is called up, no connection is established with the provider's servers yet.

Only when you activate the plugins and thus give your consent to the data transmission in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR, does your browser establish a direct connection to the provider's servers. In this context, regardless of a login into an existing user profile, a certain amount of information about your end device used (including your IP address), your browser, and your page history is transmitted to the provider and may be further processed there.

If you are logged into an existing user profile on the provider's social network, information about interactions carried out via the plugins is also published there and displayed to your contacts.

You can revoke your consent at any time by deactivating the activated plugin by clicking on it again. However, the revocation has no influence on the data that has already been transmitted to the provider.
