We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with other Personal Information. Although Google Analytics places a Cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit our Site, the Cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google.

Facebook: We use Cookies and pixels set by Facebook. With the support of the Facebook pixel, Facebook is able to determine you as a visitor to our Site in order to assist us display advertisements to you (Facebook Ads). We use the Facebook pixel to display the Facebook Ads placed by us only to those Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our online offerings or who exhibit certain characteristics (that is, interests in certain topics or products determined on the basis of the websites visited) that we transmit to Facebook (known as custom audiences). With the help of the Facebook pixel, we also want to ensure that our Facebook Ads correspond to the potential interest of users. The Facebook pixel also enables us to track the effectiveness of Facebook Ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether users are redirected to our Site after clicking on a Facebook ad (known as a conversion).
