Campaign Manager

 

a) Type and scope of data processing         

We use the online marketing tool Campaign Manager from Google, a service from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland, Tel: +353 1 543 1000, Fax: +353 1 686 5660, E-mail: support-deutschland@google.com ("Google").

Campaign Manager uses cookies to serve ads relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads more than once.

Google uses a cookie ID to track which ads appear in which browser and can thus prevent ads from appearing more than once. In addition, Campaign Manager can use cookie IDs to capture conversions related to ad requests. This is the case, for example, when a user sees a Campaign Manager ad and later visits the advertiser's website with the same browser and buys something there.

Because of the marketing tools used, your browser automatically connects directly to Google's server. We have no influence on the extent and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge.

 

b) Purpose and legal basis

Through the integration of Campaign Manager, Google receives the information that you have called up the relevant part of our website or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account.

Even if you are not registered with Google or you have not logged in, the provider may collect and store your IP address.

The Campaign Manager (DoubleClick Floodlight) cookies used enable us to understand whether you are carrying out certain actions on our website after you have accessed one of our display/video ads on Google or another platform via Campaign Manager or clicked on it (conversion tracking). This allows us to send you targeted advertising.

The legal basis is the consent according to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

c) Storage period      

The stored data are deleted by us as soon as they are no longer needed for our purposes mentioned above.

Social Networks

When you access our website, no data is transmitted to the operator of the respective social network, but only when you actively follow the link to our profile on the respective social network or click on the social plugin.

The following categories of data are processed by the respective social network:

·        IP address

·        Date, time

·        Visited website

 

If you are logged in to your user account on a social network when you access our profile page, the operator of the social network may be able to assign the information collected during your visit to your personal account.

If you interact via a "Share" or "Like" button of the respective network, this information can also be assigned to the user's personal account and published if necessary.

If you want to avoid that the collected information can be directly assigned to your user account, you have to log out of the respective social network before accessing our profile page or using the social plugin.

You can also configure the user account on the respective social network accordingly.

If you access our profile page on a social network, the operator of the social network can also set cookies on your end device, regardless of whether you have an account with the network or whether you are logged in there. Cookies are data packets that mark the user's end devices with a specific identifier. Cookies are set primarily to enable us to display personalized advertising to visitors to social networks, including our profile pages. This is done, for example, by showing the user ads on social network pages from social network advertising partners whose websites the user had previously visited. Cookies also enable us to compile statistics on the use of our profile page (e.g. number of page views, user categories). If we receive such statistical analyses from the operator of the social network, the data is previously anonymised by the operator, i.e. it is not possible for us to assign usage data to an individual user.

The purpose of processing your data on our profile page with the respective social network is to inform you about our offers and services and to answer any enquiries on our profile page. The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. In this respect, public relations work is covered by our legitimate interests within the meaning of the provision. If you use a social plugin integrated by us, the legal basis is your consent according to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

Private messages that you send us via social networks will be deleted 2 years after the last communication with you. Public posts from you (e.g. in our timeline) will always remain permanently published until you explicitly request their deletion.

We have no influence on which data is collected and transmitted by the social network operator, to which third party recipients a transmission by the social network operator takes place and how long the data is stored by the social network operator. For this we refer to the privacy policy of the respective social network.

We reserve the right to delete illegal content published by users on our profile page on the respective social network, e.g. copyright infringements or statements relevant under criminal law.

In accordance with the case law of the European Court of Justice, we are jointly responsible with the operator of the respective social network for the operation of our profile page or the social plugin with regard to compliance with data protection regulations. Within this framework, the operator of the social network provides the corresponding IT infrastructure as well as the social network website and is basically the primary contact person when it comes to processing your data on the social network pages (e.g. information or deletion). However, you can also assert your legal rights against us. In this case we will forward your requests to the operator of the social network.

US providers (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn) are transmitting to the US. By concluding so-called EU standard contractual clauses, these providers have undertaken to comply with a level of data protection that essentially corresponds to the European level. TikTok may also transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) based on EU standard contractual clauses.

 

Please note, however, that the existence of an appropriate data protection standard for providers outside the EU / EEA – even in the case of the conclusion of EU standard contractual clauses – cannot be guaranteed in every case.

This means that Serviceplan must also guarantee that your data is processed legally via its fanpage and that you can also exercise your rights regarding your data against Serviceplan. Serviceplan and Facebook Ireland have concluded an agreement on joint responsibility in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR (https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum).

 

See also the information on Page Insights data (https://www.facebook.com/help/268680253165747?helpref=about_content). This describes which Page Insights are processed on a Facebook fanpage. Page-Insights are summarized statistics that are created on the basis of certain events and are logged by the Facebook servers when people interact with Pages and the content associated with them.

 

If you call up a Facebook fanpage, Facebook can set cookies on your mobile device, regardless of whether you have a Facebook account or whether you are logged on to Facebook as a user. Cookies are data programs that mark end devices of the user with a certain identification.

 

Cookies are primarily used to display personalized advertising to visitors to Facebook websites, including a fanpage. This is done by showing the user on Facebook (i.e. also on the fanpage) ads from Facebook's advertising partners whose websites the user has previously visited. In addition, cookies make it possible to create statistics on the use of a fanpage.

 

The collection of your data through cookies in the context of the use of the fan page is not required by law or contract. Nor is this necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Cookies that are not technically necessary therefore require your consent. Whether and how Facebook obtains your consent is the responsibility of Facebook.

Facebook alone decides on the use of cookies. Serviceplan has no influence on this, which cookies are used for which purpose by Facebook, which information Facebook receives from them, where and how they are used, how long they are stored, to which third party recipients they are transmitted and how you can control and set Facebook advertisements is described by Facebook in its cookie policy. This is available at:

For more information, particularly on the transfer of data to Facebook Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California, USA, please refer to Facebook's Data Policy.

 

By concluding so-called EU standard contractual clauses, Facebook has undertaken to comply with a level of data protection that essentially corresponds to the European level.

Please note, however, that the existence of an appropriate data protection standard for providers outside the EU / EEA – even in the case of the conclusion of EU standard contractual clauses – cannot be guaranteed in every case.

· Right to withdraw your consent in accordance with Art. 7 para. 3 sent. 1 GDPR

· Right to obtain information according to Art. 15 GDPR
