This website uses the conversion tracking technology "Bing Ads" from Microsoft (Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA). Microsoft Bing Ads will place a cookie on your computer if you access our website via a Microsoft Bing ad. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer system. These cookies lose their validity after 180 days. They are not meant for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and if the cookie has not yet expired, we and Microsoft are able to recognize that the user has clicked the ad and has been forwarded to this page (conversion page). If personal data are processed in this context, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in effective marketing.
The information collected via the conversion cookie is meant to compile conversion statistics, i.e. to register how many users have arrived at a conversion page after clicking the ad. We hereby learn the total number of users who clicked our ad and were forwarded to a conversion tracking tag page. However, we do not obtain any information by which users can be personally identified.
Microsoft Corporation, based in the United States, is certified for the US-European data protection agreement "Privacy Shield", which guarantees compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you may object to this usage by easily deactivating the Bing Ads conversion tracking cookie via your internet browser and your user settings. In this case, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. Alternatively, you can use the deactivation page for consumers from the EU http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices/

However, this data is stored and processed by Facebook, so that it is possible to draw conclusions about the respective user profile.

The processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation (Art. 7(1) GDPR) to which we are subject (Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. c GDPR).
