d) Lead Forensics

This website uses Lead Forensics (https://www.leadforensics.com) an IP address-based web analysis service for website optimization and analysis of our Internet content, advertising and lead generation. Lead Forensics works on the basis of reverse business IP tracking, which is not the same as cookies. Instead a code is used, which tracks IP addresses visiting our website, identifies them as business related and matches them to a wholly owned global database of businesses and business information. The software is almost entirely focused on leveraging business related information to effectively match a business IP address with wider business data to provide valuable business related visitor information to us, such as the date and duration of the user’s visit, and the web pages which the user visits. This data may be used by us to contact the business about their experience or for marketing purposes. We will not pass this data to third parties for any reason. Furthermore, Lead Forensics does not identify any personal IP addresses, mobile devices or any other data than that associated with the business. It does not, and cannot, provide individual, personal or sensitive data regarding who has visited our website.
All data within the Lead Forensics solution is verified at least once in a 12 months cycle. Any invalid records are placed into a deletion queue, which is then securely purged four times in a 12 months period.
You can object to data being processed by Lead Forensics by clicking the link in section 6 below.
Processing of data takes place on the basis of Art. 6 (1f) GDPR. This is based on our legitimate interest of continuous improvement of our website.

Only when you activate the respective button with a 2nd click will a direct connection be established between your browser and the server of the selected social media service.

k) LinkedIn Insight-Tag

On our websites, we integrate the service "LinkedIn Insight-Tag" of LinkedIn Corporation, 1000 W. Maude Ave, Sunnyvale, California 94085, USA. The LinkedIn Insight tag enables the collection of data on visits to our website.

We do not receive any personal data from LinkedIn members, only reports and notifications (in which members are not identified) about the website audience and ad performance. Retargeting also gives us the ability to display targeted ads outside of our website without identifying the member. We also use the data to improve the relevance of ads and reach members across devices. "LinkedIn Conversion Tracking" creates statistics for us from which we can see how many users responded to our ads and in what way. Based on these statistics, we can optimize the effectiveness of our advertising and control our advertising strategy. In particular, LinkedIn enables us to create target groups for "LinkedIn Retargeting" (target group-oriented advertising) on the basis of this data and to address them via LinkedIn ads. 

Members of LinkedIn can control the use of their personal data for advertising purposes in their account settings.

Direct member identifiers will be removed to pseudonymize the data. This remaining pseudonymised data is then deleted within 30 days.

Insofar as we use optional cookies and similar technologies as part of the integration of the service or insofar as data is stored in or read from your terminal device by the service, this is done in accordance with Section 25 (1) TTDSG. The processing of personal data is based on your consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the EU-DSGVO.

You can revoke consent you have already given at any time in the cookie settings. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

When using "LinkedIn Conversion Tracking", the processing of your data may also take place in countries outside the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA) in third countries without an adequate level of data protection, in particular in the USA. If your data is transferred to third countries, there is a risk that authorities there may access your data for security and monitoring purposes without you being informed or being able to appeal. To ensure an adequate level of data protection when transferring your data to LinkedIn Corporation, 1000 W. Maude Ave, Sunnyvale, California 94085, USA, standard contractual clauses of the European Commission have been concluded in accordance with Article 46 (2) (c), (5) sentence 2 EU-DSGVO and further technical measures have been taken. In principle, we have no influence on further data processing by the third-party provider. Further information on the handling of personal data by LinkedIn can be found at: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.
