4. Legal grounds

Agreement

The information we ask to be able to contact you or to process an order is based on the legal ground of ‘performance of the agreement’ with you.

Legitimate Interests

Other information is processed on the basis of ‘our legitimate interests’, such as the data we need for a properly functioning website, tailored to the wishes of the website visitor.

You have the right to object to these processing operations. If you wish to object, please contact us. In that case, we will stop processing your personal data, unless there are compelling, legitimate reasons that make our interest in the processing greater than your interest to stop processing. If you ask us to stop processing, you may no longer be able to make optimal use of our services.

Permission

In some cases we will ask for your permission before we process your data. This concerns the following processing operations:

  • Before you register for an event
  • Before we send you a newsletter or other publication

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. In that case we will not further process your personal data.

5. Newsletter

We offer a newsletter with which we want to inform interested parties about news in the field of our services and related matters. You will only receive this newsletter if you are a subscriber. Subscribers are 1) persons who have registered for the newsletter and 2) existing customers. Each newsletter contains a link that allows you to unsubscribe with one click.

6. Cookies

We use so-called ‘cookies’. You can read more about the use of cookies in our cookie policy.

7. Use of Facebook Pixel and Conversions API

On our website, we use the “Custom Audiences” remarketing feature, the “Lookalike Audiences” target group feature, and the Conversions API from Facebook Ireland Limited (4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbor, Dublin 2, Ireland “Facebook”).

The purpose of the “Custom Audiences” feature is to address website visitors with targeted advertising (“Facebook Ads” or “Instagram Ads”) on the Facebook and Instagram social networks as well as on Facebook partner sites. For this purpose, we have implemented the Facebook remarketing tag (also called the Facebook Pixel) on our website. Among other things, the Facebook Pixel uses cookies, i.e. small text files that are stored locally in your web browser cache on your device. When you visit our website, the remarketing tag creates a direct connection to the Facebook servers, transferring the information on what web pages you have visited and what kind of interactions have taken place to them. In this case, the Facebook Pixel also allows us to check whether you were redirected to our website after clicking on our Facebook or Instagram Ads. Facebook assigns this information to your personal Facebook/Instagram user account. When you visit the Facebook or Instagram social network, you will then see personalized, targeted “Facebook Ads” or “Instagram Ads”. The data collected about you is pseudonymized for us and doesn’t allow us to draw any conclusions about your identity. However, this data can be linked to your Facebook/Instagram user account by Facebook.

The Facebook Ireland Limited (“Facebook”) “Lookalike Audiences” feature uses the same tracking pixel and is used by Facebook to calculate similarities with other Facebook/Instagram users and to identify new customers based on website visits and interactions. Facebook uses this to generate statistical twin/lookalike target groups in order to display targeted advertisements to these users as well.

With the Facebook Conversions API, the data is still collected in the client and processed on our web server. However, data collection with the API also takes place even when the Facebook pixel should be blocked in the client. A tracking code is then executed on the server which sends the collected events to the actual Facebook API on the Facebook servers. There, the data from the API and the data from the Facebook Pixel are merged, with the Conversion API complementing the tracking via the Facebook Pixel.

Facebook Ireland and we are jointly responsible for the collection of your data when the service is integrated and the transmission of this data to Facebook. The basis for this is an agreement between us and Facebook Ireland for the joint processing of personal data, in which the respective responsibilities are defined. The agreement is available at HTTPS://WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/LEGAL/CONTROLLER_ADDENDUM. According to this agreement, we are in particular responsible for fulfilling the information obligations in accordance with Art. 13, 14 GDPR, for compliance with the security requirements of Art. 32 GDPR with regard to the correct technical implementation and configuration of the service, and for compliance with the obligations in accordance with Art. 33, 34 GDPR, insofar as a violation of the protection of personal data affects our obligations under the agreement on joint processing. Facebook Ireland is responsible for enabling the rights of the data subject in accordance with articles 15-20 of the GDPR, for complying with the security requirements of article 32 of the GDPR with regard to the security of the service and for complying with the obligations under articles 33, 34 of the GDPR, insofar as a breach of personal data protection concerns Facebook Ireland’s obligations under the joint processing agreement.

Since personal data is transferred to the USA, further safeguards are required to ensure the data protection level of the GDPR. There is no adequacy decision by the EU Commission for the USA. The data transfer is based, among other things, on standard contractual clauses as appropriate safeguards for the protection of personal data, available at: HTTPS://WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/LEGAL/EU_DATA_TRANSFER_ADDENDUM. As an additional measure to the standard contractual clauses, Facebook has implemented the following technical and organizational measures to protect your data: https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/data_security_terms
