VIII. Use of web analytics tools

1. Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 (USA). Our service provider is headquartered in a country outside the member states of the European Union ("third country").

Google Inc., has been engaged on the basis of the decision reached by the European Commission on 12.07.2016 according to which an adequate level of protection exists in the USA (Adequacy Decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR).

Google Analytics uses cookies, which are placed on your computer and enable analysis of your use of our website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website is typically transmitted to one of Google’s servers in the USA and stored there. The use of IP anonymisation on our website ensures that IP addresses are anonymised when recorded (so-called IP masking).

Google uses this information on our behalf in order to evaluate your use of our website, to compile website activity reports, and to provide Titgemeyer with additional services connected with website and internet use. Google will not associate the IP address transmitted by your browser via Google Analytics with any other data held by Google.

We furthermore use the following Google Analytics features:

  • display advertising;
  • remarketing;
  • impression reports in the Google Display Network;
  • Google Analytics reports to measure demographics and interests as well as
  • user IDs.

You can disable Google Analytics for Display Advertising and adjust the displays in the Google Display Network by amending the display settings via the following link: www.google.de/settings/ads. For online advertising purposes, we use Google Analytics remarketing to place advertisements on third-party websites, including Google. This involves cookies being used by us and third-party providers, including Google. It especially includes the combined use of first-party cookies (e.g. Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (e.g. DoubleClick cookies) based on your previous visits to our website, but also the alignment, optimisation and placing of advertisements on this basis.

This also means that we link advertising impressions, other uses of advertising services, and interactions with these advertising services to your loading of our web pages and thus impacting their future delivery. The process also entails using interest-based advertising from Google. Data retrieved through these means as well as visitor data from third-party providers (e.g. age, gender, interests) are recorded and analysed by us in Google Analytics. The data is also used for advertising impressions, other uses of advertising services, and interactions with these advertising impressions and advertising services. Under no circumstances is this data merged with other personal data, however. The described remarketing is not limited to your use of our website on one individual device but enables us to display interest-based advertising across all devices you use.

We use the User ID function to record user behaviour on a variety of devices (e.g. tablets, notebooks, smartphones) and across various sessions, and to associate the User ID. This enables us to manage and measure marketing activities regardless of the device used and based on specific needs. The issuing of User IDs and evaluation of user behaviour always occurs in anonymised form.

You may deny the placing of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software; however, please note that if you do so you may not be able to use the features offered by our website in full. You can also prevent data recorded by the generated cookie and relating to your use of our website (incl. your IP address) from being transmitted to Google and also this data being processed by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at [https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout].
