Use of Facebook Pixel

We use the Facebook pixel from Meta or Facebook on our website (the service provider is Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland; according to Facebook, the data collected is also sent to the USA and other third countries transfer). For this we have implemented a programming code on our website. The Facebook pixel is a snippet of code in the JavaScript programming language that loads a collection of functions that Facebook can use to track your user actions if you came to our website via Facebook ads. For example, if you purchase a product on our website, the Facebook pixel will be triggered. It then saves your actions on our website in one or more cookies. These cookies enable Facebook to compare your user data (customer data such as IP address, user ID) with the data in your Facebook account. Facebook will then delete this data again. The data collected is anonymous and cannot be viewed by us, it can only be used in the context of placing advertisements. If you are also a Facebook user yourself and are logged in, your visit to our website will be automatically assigned to your Facebook user account. Unfortunately, we as the site operator cannot influence this use of your data.

The use of the Facebook pixel is legally based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in effective advertising, including social media. If a corresponding consent was requested (e.g. consent to the storage of your cookies), then processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR; the consent can of course also be revoked at any time. The data transfer to the USA etc. is based on the legal standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found at:https://www.facebook.com/legal/EU_data_transfer_addendum as well as https://de-de.facebook.com/help/566994660333381.

We only want to show our services and products to those people who are actually interested in them. With the help of Facebook pixels, our advertising measures can be better tailored to your interests and wishes. In this way, Facebook users (provided they have allowed personalized advertising) also see the appropriate advertising. In addition, Facebook uses the collected data for various analysis purposes and its own advertisements.

In the data protection information from the company Facebook you will also find further information on the protection of your privacy: https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/ or. https://www.facebook.com/policy.php .

You can also use the Custom Audiences feature in the Ads Settings section at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen deactivate. However, you must be logged in to Facebook for this.

However, if you do not have a Facebook account, you can also opt out of Facebook usage-based advertising on the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance website: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/ .
