Facebook Custom Audiences (for websites) / Conversion via Facebook Pixel

Purpose / Information
This website uses the so-called “Facebook Pixel” of the social network “Facebook” of Facebook Inc. (“Facebook”) for the following purposes:

A. Facebook (Website) Custom Audience
We use the Facebook pixel for remarketing purposes to be able to contact you again within 180 days. This allows us to display interest-based ads (“Facebook Ads”) to users of the website when they visit the social network “Facebook” or other websites also using the process. In this way, we pursue the interest in displaying ads that are of interest to you in order to make our website or offers more interesting for you.

B. Facebook Conversion
In addition, we want to use the Facebook Pixel to ensure that our Facebook Ads match the potential interest of users and are not annoying. With the help of the Facebook Pixel, we can track the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called “conversion”).

Recipient
Due to the marketing tool used (Facebook pixel), your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Facebook server as soon as you have agreed to the use of cookies requiring your consent.
By integrating the Facebook pixel, Facebook receives the information that you have called up our website or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Facebook service, Facebook can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Facebook or have not logged in, it is possible that Facebook will find out and store your IP address and other identifying features.
The processing of the data by Facebook is carried out within the framework of Facebook’s data use policy. Special information and details about the Facebook pixel and its functionality can also be found in the Facebook help area.
The social network Facebook is operated by the company of the same name, Facebook Inc, 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, and for users of our website services resident in the EU by Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
“Facebook” is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus offers a guarantee to comply with European data protection law.
