Cookies

In order to enable you to use the website of HARTJES Gesellschaft GmbH without restrictions, we use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small files which allow for a recognition of the user and an analysis of your use of our website. In these files, a randomly generated unique identification number is stored. In addition, a cookie contains information on its origin and storage period. Cookies are not able to access, read or change other data on your computer.

 

The cookies set by HARTJES Gesellschaft GmbH do not pose any risk for the user’s computer system as they do not cause any damage and do not contain any viruses or the like either. Most cookies on this website are automatically deleted (session cookies). At the same time, HARTJES Gesellschaft GmbH also uses permanent cookies in order to recognise you when you visit the website of HARTJES Gesellschaft GmbH again. You can manually delete these permanent cookies in your browser at any time.

 

The use of cookies can be prevented by setting your browser accordingly. If your browser supports the “Do not track” technology and you have enabled it, no user profile will be generated with regard to your visit. Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may impair your online experience and prevent you from using this website to its full extent.

Google Analytics

The website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis tool by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”) in order to gear the offer to our visitors in a more specific manner. Google Analytics also uses so-called cookies which are saved on your computer to allow for an analysis of the website. The information about your use of the website (including your IP address) that is generated by the cookies is transferred to a Google server and stored there. Your IP address is automatically shortened/anonymised by the "IP anonymisation” used by this website as soon as Google receives your IP address. 

 

Based on this information and on behalf of the website operator, Google will prepare for HARTJES Gesellschaft GmbH reports on the website activities and other services connected to the Internet use in order to analyse your use of the website and to compile reports on the website activity.

However, we would like to point out that as a consequence of the deactivation of the cookies and Google Analytics, you may no longer be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.

In order to enhance such analysis and continually improve this website, we have activated the Google Analytics services report by demographic characteristics, interests and devices (Google Signals). This breaks down web analytics data by demographic characteristics and interests. Amongst other things, Google uses third party cookies (e.g. doubleclick cookies) in order to capture such data.

We also use Google Analytics to analyse data from AdWords and/or the double-click cookie. If you do not want this, you can prevent it by making corresponding settings at the following link - https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated?hl=de.

Google Maps

Our website uses the “Google Maps” component by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 , USA (“Google”).

 

Every time the “Google Maps” component is accessed, Google will place a cookie to process user settings and data when displaying the website on which the “Google Maps” component has been integrated. As a general rule, this cookie will not be erased when the browser is closed, but will expire after a fixed period, unless it is manually erased by you beforehand.

 

If you do not agree to such a processing of your data, you can disable the “Google Maps” service and thus prevent the transfer of data to Google in this way. To do so, you must disable the JavaScript function in your browser.

Google web fonts

This website uses so-called Web Fonts for a uniform presentation of fonts; these web fonts are provided by Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). When accessing a website, your browser will load the necessary web fonts into your browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly. For this purpose, the browser you use must establish a connection to the Google servers. This informs Google that our website has been accessed by your IP address. Google web fonts are used to ensure a uniform and appealing presentation of our online offers. This is a legitimate interest in terms of Art. 6(1) point (f) of the GDPR. If your browser does not support web fonts, one of your computer’s standard fonts will be used.

Google Remarketing

Our website uses the remarketing function Google Remarketing from Google, Inc.

The purpose of this remarketing function is to present visitors to this website with advertising that reflects the interests of the viewer in the context of the Google advertising network. To do this, your browser stores what are known as ‘cookies’ on our terminal device. These enable the Google advertising network to recognise visitors when they call up a website. Google then processes this information and uses it to generate interests-based advertising.

The legal basis for using the Google Remarketing function is defined in Art 6 Para. 1 lit f GDPR (legitimate interest) because we have a legitimate interest in the analysis of visitor behaviour which enables us to adapt our web offering and/or our advertising to suit the interests of visitors. According to Google, the Google Remarketing tool is not used to process personal details.

You do, however, have the option of opposing their use by selecting settings in http://www.google.com/settings/ads that define the kinds of ads that are displayed to you. Furthermore, you can disable the use of Google-Remarketing cookies on our website altogether, by clicking

These cookies ensure that information provided to us only remains available for a limited period of time, they do not store any personal details and therefore cannot be used for identification purposes. While a cookie is still valid, and if you visit a specific page on our website during that time, we and Google can both tell that you clicked an ad that caused you to be redirected to this page. The purpose of this tool is to produce conversion strategies. Here we learn about the total number of users who clicked our ads and could then be redirected to a page provided with a conversion tracking tag.

The legal basis for using the Google Ads Conversion Tracking function is defined in Art 6 Para. 1 lit f GDPR (legitimate interest) because we have a legitimate interest in the analysis of visitor behaviour which enables us to adapt our web offering and/or our advertising to suit the interests of visitors. According to Google, the Google Ads Conversion Tracking tool is not used to process personal details.

YouTube videos

YouTube videos which are stored on “www.youtube.com” are integrated into our website and can be played directly from our website. In this connection, we use the “enhanced data protection mode” option provided by YouTube; this means that no data about you as a user will be transferred to YouTube unless you play the videos. YouTube cookies will only be saved on your computer and data sent to the YouTube operator Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”) when you play the videos. When you play videos stored on YouTube, at least the following data will be transmitted to Google: IP address and cookie ID, the specific address of the accessed page on our website, browser language setting, system date and time of the request as well as your browser ID. The data will be transferred regardless whether you have logged on to YouTube using a user account or whether you have a user account or not. If you are logged in, this data will be associated directly with your account. You can prevent this association by logging off before pressing the Start button. Google will store this data as user profiles and use it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the custom configuration of its website. You have a right to object to the creation of these user profiles which you must directly address to Google as operator of YouTube. More information on data protection on YouTube is provided by Google at www.google.at/intl/de/policies/privacy/. By playing the YouTube videos, you declare your consent to the data processing by Google. There is no processing of the data concerned by HARTJES Gesellschaft GmbH.

Facebook Pixel

To measure conversion rates, this website uses the visitor activity pixel of Facebook, Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA („Facebook“).

This tool allows the tracking of page visitors after they have been linked to the website of the provider after clicking on a Facebook ad. This makes it possible to analyse the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes and to optimize future advertising campaigns.

For us as the operators of this website, the collected data is anonymous. We are not in a position to arrive at any conclusions as to the identity of users. However, Facebook archives the information and processes it, so that it is possible to make a connection to the respective user profile and Facebook is in a position to use the data for its own promotional purposes in compliance with the Facebook Data Usage Policy. This enables Facebook to display ads on Facebook pages as well as in locations outside of Facebook. We as the operator of this website have no control over the use of such data.

The use of Facebook Pixel is based on Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in effective advertising campaigns, which also include social media. If a corresponding agreement has been requested (e.g. an agreement to the storage of cookies), the processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the agreement can be revoked at any time.

In Facebook’s Data Privacy Policies, you will find additional information about the protection of your privacy at: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

You also have the option to deactivate the remarketing function „Custom Audiences“ in the ad settings section under https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen. To do this, you first have to log into Facebook.

If you do not have a Facebook account, you can deactivate any user based advertising by Facebook on the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/.
