Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement, which provides a guarantee to comply with the European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).

We use Google's online marketing tool "AdWords" to place ads on the Google advertising network (e.g. in search results, in videos, on websites, etc.) so that they are displayed to users who might have a suspected interest in the ads, this allows us to target advertisements for and within our online offering so that we only present ads to users that potentially represent their interests. If a user e.g. Showing ads for products, he's been looking for on other online offers it’s called remarketing. For these purposes, upon access to our and other websites on which the Google Advertising Network is active, Google will immediately execute a Google code and become so-called remarketing tags (invisible graphics or codes, also known as (“Web beacons") incorporated into the website. With their help, the device provides the user with an individual cookie, a small file that is saved (instead of cookies, comparable technologies can also be used). In this file is noted which web pages the user visited, for what content he is interested and what offers the user has clicked. In addition, technical information on the browser and operating system, referring web pages, visit time and other information on the use of the online offer are recorded.

Furthermore, we receive an individual "conversion cookie". The information obtained through the cookie is used by Google to generate conversion statistics for us. However, we only receive the anonymous total number of users who clicked on our ad and were redirected to a conversion tracking tag page. However, we do not receive any information that personally identifies users. 

The data of the users are pseudonym processed within the Google advertising network. That means Google stores and processes for example not the name or e-mail address of the users but processes the relevant data cookie-related within pseudonymous user profiles. That from the perspective of Google, the ads are not managed and displayed to a specifically identified person, but only to the cookie owner, regardless of who that cookie owner is. This does not apply if a user has explicitly allowed Google to process the data without this pseudonymization. The information collected about users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google's servers in the United States.
