For the purpose of optimizing the marketing of our website, we utilize the so-called User-ID feature. With this feature, we can assign a unique, permanent ID to your interaction data in one or more sessions on our online platforms, allowing us to analyze your user behavior across devices and sessions.
​
For web analysis, the extension function of Google Analytics, Google Signals, enables "Cross-Device Tracking."

Further data processing only occurs if you have enabled the "personalized advertising" setting in your Google account. If you are logged into Google during your visit to our website in this case, Google uses your data along with Google Analytics data to create and define audience lists for cross-device remarketing.
For website analysis and event tracking, we measure your subsequent behavior using Google Ads Conversion Tracking when you arrive at our website through a Google Ads advertisement. For this purpose, cookies may be used, and data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information, as well as information about your use of our website based on events predefined by us, such as visiting a webpage or signing up for a newsletter) may be collected to create usage profiles using pseudonyms.
