12. Google Analytics

12.3 Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our website by users, to compile reports on activities within this website and to provide us with other services relating to the use of this website and the internet. Pseudonymous user profiles can be created from the processed data.

12.4 We use Google Analytics only with activated IP anonymization. This means that the IP address of the user is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

12.5 The IP address transmitted by the user’s browser will not be merged with other data held by Google. Users may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on their browser, they may also refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on their browser, they may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on their browser and they may refuse the processing of cookies by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available from the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de .

13. Google-Re/Marketing-Services

13.1 On the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer in the sense of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. of the German Civil Code), we shall use the information contained in this website for our own purposes. DSGVO) the marketing and re-marketing services (short ‚Google Marketing Services‘) of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, (‚Google‘).

13.2 Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement, thereby providing a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).

13.3 Google’s marketing services allow us to display advertisements for and on our website in a more targeted manner in order to present users only with ads that potentially match their interests. If, for example, a user is shown ads for products in which he or she is interested on other websites, this is referred to as ‚re-marketing‘. For these purposes, when you visit our and other websites on which Google marketing services are active, Google executes a code directly from Google and (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as ‚web beacons‘) are incorporated into the website. With their help, an individual cookie, i.e. a small file, is stored on the user’s device (comparable technologies can also be used instead of cookies). The cookies can be set by various domains, including google.com, doubleclick.net, invitemedia.com, admeld.com, googlesyndication.com or googleadservices.com. In this file it is noted which websites the user visits, which contents he is interested in and which offers he has clicked, furthermore technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, visiting time as well as further information about the use of the online offer. The IP address of the user is also recorded, whereby we inform within the scope of Google Analytics that the IP address within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area is shortened and only in exceptional cases completely transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address is not merged with user data within other Google services. Google may also combine the above information with such information from other sources. If the user subsequently visits other websites, the ads tailored to the user’s interests may be displayed.

13.4 The user’s data will be processed pseudonymously within the framework of Google Marketing Services. This means, for example, that Google does not store and process the name or e-mail address of the user, but processes the relevant data cookie-related within pseudonymous user profiles. This means that, from Google’s point of view, the ads are not administered and displayed for a specifically identified person, but for the cookie holder, regardless of who this cookie holder is. This does not apply if a user has expressly permitted Google to process the data without this pseudonymisation. The information Google Marketing Services collects about users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google’s servers in the United States.

13.5 The Google marketing services we use include the online advertising program ‚Google AdWords‘. In the case of Google AdWords, each AdWords customer receives a different ‚conversion cookie‘. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked through the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected through the cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. AdWords customers know the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were directed to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, you will not receive any information that personally identifies users.

13.6 We may use the Google Marketing service ‚DoubleClick‘ to include third-party advertisements. DoubleClick uses cookies to enable Google and its partner sites to serve ads based on users‘ visits to this site or other sites on the Internet.

13.7 We may include third-party advertisements based on Google’s AdSense marketing service. AdSense uses cookies to enable Google and its partner sites to serve ads based on users‘ visits to this site or other sites on the Internet.

13.8 We may also use the ‚Google Optimiser‘ service. Google Optimiser allows us to track how various changes to a web site affect your use of Google Optimiser through what is known as ‚A/B testing‘.

14.2 Content of the newsletter: We send out newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications containing advertising information (hereinafter referred to as „newsletter“) only with the consent of the recipient or a legal permission. If the contents of the newsletter are specifically described within the scope of registration, they are decisive for the consent of the user. In addition, our newsletters contain information on chemical products, as well as on PINPOOLS and services offered within PINPOOLS.

14.3 Double opt-in and logging: Registration for our newsletter is carried out in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that you will receive an e-mail after registration asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that nobody can register with external e-mail addresses.

Optionally, we ask you to provide a name for the purpose of personal contact in the newsletter as well as your industry and website for the purpose of knowing our readers and adapting the newsletter content to their interests.

14.5 Statistical survey and analysis – The newsletters contain a so-called ‚web-beacon‘, i.e. a file the size of a pixel, which is retrieved from the server of the dispatch service provider when the newsletter is opened. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval are first collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services on the basis of the technical data or the target groups and their reading behaviour on the basis of their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times. The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our nor the shipping service provider’s intention to monitor individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognise the reading habits of our users and to adapt our contents to them or to send different contents according to the interests of our users.

DSGVO) content or service offers from third parties in order to integrate their content and services, such as videos or fonts (hereinafter uniformly referred to as ‚content‘). This always presupposes that the third-party providers of this content perceive the IP address of the user, since they would not be able to send the content to their browser without the IP address. The IP address is therefore required for the presentation of this content. We make every effort to use only those contents whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the contents. Third party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as ‚web beacons‘) for statistical or marketing purposes. The ‚pixel tags‘ can be used to evaluate information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on the user’s device and may contain, among other things, technical information about the browser and operating system, referring web pages, visit times and other information about the use of our online offering, as well as may be linked to such information from other sources.
