For the processing of personal data for the purposes of concluding or fulfilling a contract with you, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR is the legal basis.

As far as the processing of your personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of our legal obligations (e.g. for the storage of data), we are obliged to process your personal data pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR

In addition, we process your personal data for the purposes of safeguarding our legitimate interests and the legitimate interests of third parties pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The maintenance of the functionality of our IT systems, but also the marketing of our products and services and the legally required documentation of business contacts are such legitimate interests.

1. Processing of personal data when visiting our website and using our website services
When you call up our websites, your browser will transfer certain data to our web server. This is done for technical reasons and is required to make the requested information available to you. To facilitate your access to the websites, the following data are collected, briefly stored, and used:

• IP address
• Date and time of access
• Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
• Content of request (specific site)
• Status of access/HTTP status code
• Transferred volume of data
• Website requesting access
• Browser, language settings, version of browser software operating system and surface

From Registration -

• First Name
• Last Name
• Email
• Phone Number
• Address (for B2B accounts)

Via Adobe Analytics -

• IP address – Adobe captures this and uses it to determine geolocation data such as Country, State/Province, City, and Zip Code
• Device data – mobile vs desktop vs other device types, operating system, and version
• Browser data – browser, browser type (company e.g. Google), height, width
• Experience Cloud Visitor ID – unique identifier set for each visitor to the site, for each device/browser combination they visit the site on
• User ID – we capture the hashed user ID of users that login on the sites
  • The hashed user ID is generated by backend and stored as part of a user’s profile data in a table; it is made available to the data layer and thus the Analytics to capture when user’s login
• Order ID – we capture the order number of orders placed on the website
• Purchase ID – this is an analytics variable, in which we also capture the same value as the custom variable Order ID
  • This is used to ensure orders (and associated revenue/unit values) are not duplicated in the analytics
• Lead Form ID – we capture a uniquely generated ID whenever a lead form is submitted

Moreover, to protect our legitimate interests, we will store such data for a limited period of time in order to be able to initiate a tracking of personal data in the event of actual or attempted unauthorized access to our servers.

We are allowed to process your personal data pursuant to Art. 6(1) (b) and (f) GDPR. 1

1.1 Cookies
Our websites use “cookies.” Cookies are small text files stored in your terminal's memory via your browser. Cookies cannot run programs or transmit viruses to your computer. They serve to make the Internet site more user-friendly and effective overall.

In view of the importance of data privacy, and our obligations of transparency, we provide information below about cookies, how we use them on our websites and what options you have if, despite the benefits they bring, you prefer to disable them. We will assume you agree to accept the cookies that we use on our websites if you do not disable or opt out of them as described below.

1.1.1 Terminology
When trying to understand cookies, and how to control them, it can help to know some terminology:

• Cookies installed on your device by the organization running the websites you are visiting are known as “first party” cookies.
• Cookies installed on your device via the websites you are visiting by another organization are termed “third party” cookies. An example is a cookie set by a specialist website analytics company that provides the website owner with data on the numbers of people visiting its website.
• So-called “persistent cookies” remain on your device even after you close your internet browser. They are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie. For example, where a "persistent cookie" is used on a website to remember your login details, you will not need to enter those details each time you visit that website.
• “Session cookies,” by contrast, are temporary and are typically used to enable a website to operate, e.g. by permitting a user to move from page to page without having to log in again. Once you close your browser, all session cookies are deleted.
• "Flash cookies" are installed from websites that contain media (e.g. video clips). This requires specific software. This allows content to be downloaded and information to be stored faster, e.g. that the content has been accessed from your device.

1.1.2 Cookies we use
To enhance user experience, our websites use ‘persistent’ and ‘session’ cookies for the purposes described below. These cookies are generally “first party” cookies but may also be “third party” cookies.

(1) Website functionality
Cookies that are essential for our websites to function technically or which provide a service or option that you have requested. For example, a cookie that “remembers” your authentication details so you can remain logged in to a secure site, or a cookie that remembers the country or language you have selected.

(2) Website performance analysis
Cookies that help us improve our websites by providing us with aggregate statistics on how many users visit, which parts of the site are viewed the most, and the city or regional location of those users. These may be installed by a third party analytics provider under a contract with us.

(3) Tracking and Targeting Cookies
In order to be able to provide you with the most relevant information about our products and services, we use cookies to be aware of which content you have viewed on our websites. We may also use this information for the purposes of our advertising campaigns on third party websites. In that case, we may also receive information about the websites of our marketing partners on which you saw our advertisements. Similarly, third parties may display their advertisements on our websites, and they may become aware that you have visited our websites.

1.1.3 How to control cookies – Opt Out
To prevent the use of cookies by your Internet browser, you can deactivate the use of cookies via the settings of your Internet browser. You can use the help functions of your Internet browser to learn how to deactivate and/or delete cookies in your browser. Please note that the deactivation/deletion of cookies may result in certain functions of our websites no longer functioning as expected. In addition, the deactivation/deletion of cookies only affects the Internet browser used for this purpose. For other Internet browsers, the deactivation/deletion of cookies must therefore be repeated accordingly.

We store this data until the end of the term of a respective cookie or until you delete the cookies.

Further processing of personal data by means of cookies can be found in the relevant sections of this information.

1.2 Web Analytics & Marketing
We use cookies to personalize our content as well as our advertisements and to analyze your visits to our websites. We also share information about the usage of our websites with our social media partners, advertisers, and analysts. Our partners combine this information with other information that you provide to them or that they have collected as part of your use of their services. It is our legitimate interest to optimize our web services as well as our online offer.

1.2.1 Microsoft Advertising

(1) We use the Microsoft Ads (formerly Bing Ads) online marketing service provided by Microsoft to display search advertisements and to track when a visitor has accessed our website via a Microsoft ad. If you click on a Microsoft ad, Microsoft Ads stores a conversion tracking cookie on your device. These cookies are only used to track the number of users who click the Microsoft ad and are forwarded to the target page (conversion page). No personal information about the identity of the user is disclosed.

(2) If you wish to prevent Microsoft Ads conversion tracking, click on the following link: http://choice.microsoft.com/en-US/opt-out. Further information about Microsoft’s privacy policy can be found on the Microsoft website at https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/privacystatement\

1.2.2 Google Analytics Remarketing
(1) Our websites use the functions of Google Analytics Remarketing in conjunction with the cross-device functions of Google Ads (see sections 1.2.4). The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

(2) This function makes it possible to link the advertising target groups created with Google Analytics Remarketing with the cross-device functions of Google Ads. In this way, interest-related, personalized advertising messages that have been adapted to you depending on your previous usage and surfing behavior on a terminal device (e.g. mobile phone) can also be displayed on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

(3) If you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browsing history to your Google Account for this purpose. This way, the same personalized advertising messages can be delivered to every device you sign in to with your Google Account. To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google authenticated user IDs that are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create target groups for cross-device advertising.

(4) The summary of the data collected in your Google Account is exclusively based on your consent, which you can submit or withdraw to Google. For data collection operations that are not aggregated in your Google Account (e.g. because you do not have a Google Account or have opposed the aggregation), the collection of data is based on our legitimate interest to analyze the website visitors for advertising purposes.

For further information and Google's privacy policy follow: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads

(5) This website uses the "demographic features" function of Google Analytics. This allows reports to be created that contain information on the age, gender, and interests of site visitors. This data comes from interest-related advertising by Google and from visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can disable this feature at any time from the display settings in your Google Account or opt-out of the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in section 1.2.1. (3).

(6) For further information on how Google Analytics handles user data and Google's privacy policy follow https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en

1.2.3 Google Ads
(1) Our websites use the Google Ads service. Google Ads is an online advertising program from Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). We use the remarketing function within the Google Ads service. The remarketing function enables us to present advertisements based on their interests to users of our website on other websites within the Google display network (on Google itself, so-called "Google ads" or on other websites). For this purpose, the interaction of users on our website is analyzed, e.g. which offers the user was interested in, in order to be able to display targeted advertising to users even after visiting our website on other pages. To do this, Google stores a number in the browsers of users who visit certain Google services or websites on the Google Display Network. This number, known as a "cookie", is used to record the visits of these users. This number is used to uniquely identify a web browser on a particular computer and not to identify a person.

(2) You can disable the use of cookies by Google by following the link below and downloading and installing the plug-in provided there: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. For more information about Google Re-marketing and Google's privacy policy, please visit: http://www.google.com/privacy/ads/

(3) Furthermore, we use the so-called Conversion Tracking when using the Google Ads service. When you click on an advertisement served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is placed on your computer or device. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and will only be used for personal identification. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking.

(4) If you do not wish to take part in the tracking process, you can also object to the setting of a cookie needed for this – for example, by using a browser setting which deactivates the automatic setting of cookies. You can also disable cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “googleadservices.com”. For more information about your choices and privacy on Google, please visit https://policies.google.com/privacy

(5) We process your personal data based on your consent or our legitimate interest in playing off product recommendations and carrying out marketing measures.

1.2.4 Adobe Analytics and Adobe Launch
(1) We use the web analysis service Adobe Analytics. Adobe Analytics is a tool offered by Adobe Systems Incorporated, 345 Park Avenue San Jose, CA 95110-2704 USA. We use this tool to analyze and regularly improve the use of our website.

(2) Adobe Launch enables us as a website provider to flexibly integrate and easily manage services (e.g. Adobe marketing services, Adobe Analytics) to improve interaction with leads. A tag is a web page code element in the JavaScript programming language. This must be embedded on any html page for use, so that the code element can be activated when a web page is opened. Adobe Launch controls tag embedding in a central location and allows to control which services are included in which location, as well as collecting data or activating services.

(3) We process your personal data based on our legitimate interest to improve our website and make it more interesting for you as a user.

(4) Cookies are stored on your computer for this evaluation. The information collected in this way is stored on servers, also in the USA.
