                              This website uses Google Remarketing, a service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

                              Third-party providers, including Google, use the cookies to place ads on the basis of previous visits by a user on that website. The way (if applicable), Google provides a service associated with the use of the website and with Internet use in general and transmits cookie information to third parties, provided that it is required under the law or to the extent that this data is processed by third parties on behalf of Google.

This function serves to present interest-based publicity ads to website visitors within the scope of the Google advertising network. The browser of the website visitor stores so-called cookies, or text files that are saved on your computer, allowing for the recognition of the visitor when he or she calls up any websites belonging to the advertising network of Google. Publicity ads can then be presented to the visitor on those pages that relate to content which the visitor has previously called up on websites using the remarketing function of Google. Google claims not to collect any personal data during that process. Nevertheless, should you not agree to Google’s remarketing function, generally you can deactivate it by making the corresponding settings at https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated.

                                Every Google AdWords customer gets a different cookie. The cookies can not be tracked through the websites. The collected information with the help of conversion cookies serve to prepare statistics of AdWords customers who decided for conversion tracking. Customers get to know the total number of users who have clicked on the ad and who have been redirected to a page which includes a conversion tracking tag. No information will be provided where the user can be identified by person. If you do not want to participate in the tracking, you can easily contradict if you deactivate the cookie of Google conversion tracking in the internet browser in your user settings. You will then not be recorded in the statistics.
