Cookie Policy

1. Cookies

We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage tech­nolo­gies stored on your computer by your browser. These cookies process certain specific infor­ma­tion about you, such as your browser, loca­tion data, or IP address.  Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique iden­ti­fier of the cookie. It consists of a char­acter string through which internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differ­en­tiate the indi­vidual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recog­nized and iden­ti­fied using the unique cookie ID.

These data will be stored for a maximum of 180 days as a tech­nical safe­guard to protect the data processing systems against unau­tho­rized access.

The legal basis for such processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies are used to collect data to initiate or process contrac­tual rela­tion­ships.

If the processing does not serve to initiate or process a contract, our legit­i­mate interest lies in improving the func­tion­ality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

1.1. Anony­mous user profile

Within statu­tory provi­sions our company creates user profiles under a pseu­donym for the reason of promo­tion, market research and the customiza­tion of our services. You can object to the usage of this data at any time with future effect.

1.2. Third-party cookies

If neces­sary, our website may also use cookies from compa­nies with whom we coop­erate for the purpose of adver­tising, analyzing, or improving the features of our website.

Please refer to the following infor­ma­tion for details, in partic­ular for the legal basis and purpose of such third-party collec­tion and processing of data collected through cookies.

1.3. Disabling cookies

You can refuse the use of cookies by changing the settings on your browser. Like­wise, you can use the browser to delete cookies that have already been stored. However, the steps and measures required vary, depending on the browser you use. If you prevent or restrict the instal­la­tion of cookies, not all of the func­tions on our site may be fully usable.

 

2. Web analysis tools

2.1 Google Analytics (with anonymi­sa­tion func­tion)

BWT AG has inte­grated the Google Analytics compo­nent (with anonymi­sa­tion func­tion) into this website. Google Analytics is a web analysis service. Web analytics refers to the collec­tion, compi­la­tion and eval­u­a­tion of data on the behav­iour of visi­tors to websites. A web analysis service collects data on, among other things, the website from which a data subject arrived on a website (known as the referrer), which subpages of the website are accessed or how often and the length of time for which a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is predom­i­nantly used to opti­mise a website and to perform a cost-benefit analysis of online adver­tising.

The company that oper­ates the Google Analytics compo­nent is Google LLC (“Google”) 1600 Amphithe­atre Pkwy, Moun­tain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

BWT AG uses the “_gat._anonymizeIp” suffix to carry out web analyses using Google Analytics. By using this suffix, the IP address of the data subject’s internet connec­tion is trun­cated and anonymised by Google when our website is accessed from a member state of the Euro­pean Union or from another country that is a signa­tory to the Agree­ment on the Euro­pean Economic Area (EEA).

The purpose of the Google Analytics compo­nent is to analyse visitor flows on our website. Google uses the data and infor­ma­tion gained to, among other things, eval­uate the usage of our website, to create online reports for us that show and compile the activ­i­ties on our website and to provide further services in connec­tion with the usage of our website.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the data subject’s IT system. It has already been explained above what cookies are. Placing the cookie enables Google to analyse the usage of our website. Each time one of the indi­vidual pages of this website, which is oper­ated by the data controller and on which a Google Analytics compo­nent has been inte­grated, is called up, the web browser on the data subject’s IT system is auto­mat­i­cally prompted by the Google Analytics compo­nent to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis.

As already outlined above, the data subject can at all times use a corre­sponding setting on the web browser used to block the place­ment of cookies by our website and thus perma­nently object to the place­ment of cookies. Such a setting on the web browser used would also prevent Google from placing a cookie on the data subject’s IT system. In addi­tion, a cookie that has already been placed by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time using the web browser or other soft­ware programs.

Further­more, the data subject has the option of objecting to the collec­tion of data gener­ated by Google Analytics in rela­tion to usage of this website as well as to the processing of this data by Google and can prevent this. To do so, the data subject must down­load and install a browser add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via JavaScript that data and infor­ma­tion on visits to websites may not be trans­mitted to Google Analytics. The instal­la­tion of the browser add-on is inter­preted by Google as an objec­tion. If the data subject’s IT system is deleted, formatted or rein­stalled at a later time, the data subject must re-install the browser add-on to deac­ti­vate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is unin­stalled or deac­ti­vated by the data subject or by another person in his area of control, there is an option to rein­stall or reac­ti­vate the browser add-on.

Further infor­ma­tion and Google’s currently applic­able privacy policy can be down­loaded from https://www.google.de/intl/de/poli­cies/privacy/ and http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail under the following link: https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/.

2.2. Google AdWords with Conver­sion Tracking

Our website uses Google AdWords and conver­sion tracking. This is a service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphithe­atre Parkway, Moun­tain View, CA 94043 (here­inafter “Google”).

Through certi­fi­ca­tion according to the EU-US Privacy Shield Google guar­an­tees that it will follow the EU's data protec­tion regu­la­tions when processing data in the United States.

https:// www. pri vacy shie ld. gov/ partic­i­pant? id=a2z t000 0000 01L5 AAI& sta tus=Act ive

We use conver­sion tracking to provide targeted promo­tion of our site. The legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legit­i­mate interest lies in the analysis, opti­miza­tion, and economic oper­a­tion of our site.

If you click on an ad placed by Google, the conver­sion tracking used stores a cookie on your device. These so-called conver­sion cookies expire after 30 days and do not other­wise iden­tify you person­ally.

If the cookie is still valid and you visit a specific page of our website, both we and Google can eval­uate that you clicked on one of our ads placed on Google and that you were then forwarded to our website.

The data collected in this way is in turn used by Google to provide us with an eval­u­a­tion of visits to our website and what visi­tors do once there. In addi­tion, we receive infor­ma­tion about the number of users who clicked on our adver­tise­ment(s) as well as about the pages on our site that are subse­quently visited. Neither we nor third parties who also use Google AdWords will be able to iden­tify you from this conver­sion tracking.

You can also prevent or restrict the instal­la­tion of cookies by making the appro­priate settings in your browser. Like­wise, you can use the browser to delete cookies that have already been stored. However, the steps and measures required vary, depending on the browser you use. If you have any ques­tions, please use the help func­tion or consult the docu­men­ta­tion for your browser or contact its maker for support.

In addi­tion, Google provides further infor­ma­tion with regard to its data protec­tion prac­tices in partic­ular infor­ma­tion on how you can prevent the use of your data.

3. Social Media

We are present on social networks and plat­forms to commu­ni­cate with and inform customers, stake­holders and users about our services.

In this regard, we point out that user data might be processed outside the Euro­pean Union. This can result in risks for the users, e.g. the enforce­ment of user rights might be more diffi­cult. Through certi­fi­ca­tion according to the EU-US Privacy Shield providers guar­antee that they will follow the EU's data protec­tion regu­la­tions when processing data.

Usually, the user data is processed for market research and adver­tising purposes. On basis of the usage behav­iour and the inter­ests arising user profiles can be drawn. The user profiles can be used to place adver­tising in and outside of social networks and plat­forms, to attend to the user’s specific inter­ests. For this purpose cookies are stored on the user’s device, where the user’s behav­iour and inter­ests are stored. Further­more the user profiles might save data inde­pen­dent from the used device.

The processing of the users’ personal data is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR, our legit­i­mate interest on effec­tive infor­ma­tion of and commu­ni­ca­tion with the users. If the users are asked for consent for the data processing by the providers, the legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR, Art. 7 GDPR.

Requests for infor­ma­tion and enforce­ment of user rights can be most effec­tively made with the providers. Solely the providers have access to the user data, they can take actions and provide infor­ma­tion. Should you need assis­tance, you can contact us at any time.

To register and log in to your customer account, you also have the option of authen­ti­cating your­self with your existing profile on one of the following social networks, Face­book, Google+ or LinkedIn, and finally regis­tering or logging in.

For this purpose, you will find on the regis­tra­tion page or login page the corre­sponding symbols of the respec­tive providers of the social networks supported by our website. Before a connec­tion to the provider is estab­lished, you must expressly agree to the process and trans­mis­sion of data described below:

6. Online Adver­tising

6.1. Amazon Ads

Within our website, we use the "Amazon Pixel" to present adver­tise­ments tailored to indi­vidual inter­ests. This is done using the infor­ma­tion you provide to us when you visit our websites and use our content or services. Customized ads, some­times referred to as person­al­ized or interest-based adver­tising, are based on infor­ma­tion we receive through your activ­i­ties, such as: For example, purchases on our websites, use of devices, soft­ware or appli­ca­tions, or visits to sites containing Amazon content or ads, inter­ac­tion with Amazon tools, or use of these payment services.

The data collected in this way is anony­mous to us, which means that we can neither see personal data of indi­vidual users nor combine these with other infor­ma­tion about a user.

The data is stored and processed by Amazon. Amazon can track the behavior of users who clicked on an ad and were redi­rected to our website. By using cookies, which are text files stored on your computer, Amazon can then recog­nize that user in the Amazon member area and opti­mize the effi­ciency of adver­tise­ments, for example to offer adver­tise­ment tailored to the needs of target group, in order to the data use policy of Amazon. This only applies to users who have an account on Amazon and are logged into the member’s area of Amazon. Users who are not members of Amazon are not affected by this data processing.

You can object the data processing by following link: https:// www. amazon. de/ adprefs

 

6.2. Facebook-Pixel, Face­book Custom Audi­ences, Looka­like Audi­ences

The “visitor action pixel” is a tool of Face­book Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. Based on website visits and the surfing behavior, this tool allows us to deter­mine target groups for adver­tising on Face­book, so-called “Facebook-Ads”.

Also we use this tool to measure the effec­tive­ness of online marketing activ­i­ties. So we can follow the actions of users after they have viewed and/or clicked a Face­book adver­tise­ment and then placed an order. Once you reach the website, the pixel is inte­grated directly by Face­book and can store a cookie on your device. The tool "Looka­like Audi­ence" is based on the same tracking pixel and allows Face­book to deter­mine simi­lar­i­ties with existing Face­book account holders for interest-based adver­tising.

The browser auto­mat­i­cally estab­lishes a direct connec­tion to the Face­book server. We have no influ­ence on the extent and further use of the data collected by Face­book through the use of this tool and there­fore inform you according to our level of knowl­edge. By inte­grating Face­book Custom Audi­ences, Face­book receives the infor­ma­tion that you have called up the corre­sponding website of our Internet pres­ence, or that you have clicked on an adver­tise­ment from us. If you are regis­tered with a Face­book service, Face­book can asso­ciate your visit with your account. Even if you are not regis­tered with Face­book or have not logged in, it is possible that the provider may obtain and store your IP address and other iden­ti­fying infor­ma­tion.
