- Conversion tracking: Our conversion tracking partners place a cookie on your computer (“conversion cookie”) if you accessed our website via an advertisement of the respective partner. Normally these cookies are no longer valid after 30 days. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and the relevant conversion partner can recognize that a certain user clicked on the advertisement and thereby was redirected to our website. This can also be done across multiple devices. The information obtained by means of the conversion cookie serves the purpose of compiling conversion statistics and recording the total number of users who clicked on the respective advertisement and were redirected to a website with a conversion tracking tag. Please note that using the tools might include transfer of your data to recipients outside of the EEA where there is no adequate level of data protection pursuant to the GDPR (e.g. the USA). For more details in this respect please refer to the following description of the individual marketing tools:

- Google Analytics: Analysis of user behavior (page retrievals, number of visitors and visits, downloads), creation of pseudonymous user profiles based on cross-device information of logged-in Google users (cross-device tracking), enrichment of pseudonymous user data with target group-specific information provided by Google, retargeting, UX testing, conversion tracking, and retargeting in conjunction with Google Ads.

- Google Ads: We use the Google Ads online advertising program and Google Remarketing technology to advertise online and make ads more relevant. We place Remarketing cookies which may be used by third parties (including Google) to show our ads on websites outside of our management. Our Remarketing Cookie and Remarketing Lists do not collect personal information.

- HubSpot: Our Site employs HubSpot, which collects personal identifying information by using JavaScript and cookies to help us analyze how visitors use the Site. HubSpot’s products help us to identify Site visitors, analyze email campaigns, track Site contact forms and monitor Google AdWords click through. Anonymous visitor tracking information may be shared with other HubSpot customers.
