5.3.1  Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) (“Google”). Google Analytics uses tag files and cookies. The cookies are stored on your computer and generate information about your use of our website. This information is transmitted to a Google server in the USA for storage. IP anonymization is activated on this website, i.e. your IP address will be shortened by Google within Member States of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted. The full IP address is only transmitted to a Google server in the USA in exceptional cases and shortened there. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework. 
Google uses the information generated for reports to TANOS on the use and activities on our website and to provide other services for TANOS in connection with use of the website and the Internet, including functions to display advertisements, and Google Analytics reports on performance by demographic characteristics and interests. Google's demographic and interest performance analytics reports use information and visitor data from third parties (such as age, gender and interests) obtained through interest-based advertising by Google. Google will also transmit this information to third parties, if required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.
The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. You can prevent the use and storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly. However, we note that in such case you may not be able to use all functions of our website to their full extent.

5.4  Remarketing

This website uses the Google Tag Manager of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA  94043, USA). Google Tag Manager is used to manage website tags (identifiers) through an interface. By using the Google Tag Manager, no cookies are set and no personal data is collected. The tool triggers web tags, which in turn may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, it will remain in effect for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.

5.4.2  Google AdWords and Google Analytics Remarketing

This website uses the function of Google Analytics in connection with Google AdWords Remarketing of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) The Google AdWords remarketing technology enables us to reach users who have  already visited our website and are interested in our offer through targeted advertising on the pages of the Google Partner Network. For this purpose, a cookie is set when visiting our site in order to recognize the user when visiting a page of other Google Partner Network participants. Furthermore, user behavior can be analyzed and then used for targeted product recommendations and interest-based  advertising. The data stored in the cookie is not combined with other personal data to create user profiles. By using this website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out in this Privacy Statement.

Further information on Google's terms and conditions can be found at www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

5.4.3  Google  Conversion-Tracking

We use the so-called conversion tracking in connection with Google AdWords. When you click on an ad taken out by Google, a cookie is set for conversion tracking. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user has clicked on the ad and has been redirected to such page.
Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers see the total number of users who  clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they will not receive any information that personally identifies users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can block this use by easily deactivating the Google Conversion Tracking cookie via your Internet browser under User Settings. This will prevent you from being included in the conversion tracking statistics. For more information on Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking, please see Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.
You can set your  browser so that you are informed when cookies are set and only allow cookies in specific cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. When cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

5.4.4  Google reCAPTCHA

We use Google  reCAPTCHA (below referred to as “reCAPTCHA”) on our websites. The provider is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
The reCAPTCHA service is used to check whether the data entered on our websites (e.g. in a contact form) is done by a human being or by an automated program. For this purpose reCAPTCHA analyses the behavior of the website visitor on the basis of different characteristics. This analysis starts automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For analysis reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g. IP address, time the website visitor stays on the website or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
The reCAPTCHA analyses runs completely in the background. Visitors to the website are not informed that an analysis is taking place.
Further information about Google reCAPTCHA and Google's privacy policy can be found at: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/android.html.

5.4.5  Facebook Remarketing / Retargeting

This website uses remarketing tags, such as the Facebook Pixel from the social network Facebook, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. The remarketing tags establish a direct connection between the Facebook server and the user's browser when visiting our website. This will transmit to the Facebook server the identity of our websites which the user has visited with his/her IP address. This information is available to us for use when displaying Facebook Ads. This allows the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements to be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising measures to be optimized. Facebook assigns this information to the user’s personal Facebook account. We note that we are not aware of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Facebook. The collected data is anonymous to us, and we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. For more information about Facebook's collection and use of the data, your rights and ways to protect your privacy, please see Facebook's privacy policy at www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. If you do not want Facebook to associate the collected information directly with your Facebook account, you can deactivate the remarketing function “Custom Audiences” through this link. To do this, you must be logged in to Facebook.

5.5  Social media plug-ins

Our website also uses programs (plug-ins) from the following social networks: Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and
Vimeo.
These are services provided from U.S. companies:
Facebook Inc. (1601 p.  California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA),
Google Inc. (1600  Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA),
Instagram Inc. (1601  Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA), and
Vimeo Inc. (555 West  18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA).
The plug-ins are indicated on our website by the logos or symbols of the respective companies (e.g. “Like” and/or “Recommend” buttons). When you visit a page on our website that contains such a plug-in, your browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of the respective company, which in turn transmits the content of the plug-in to your browser and integrates it into the displayed page. This will forward the information that you have visited our website to such companies. We have no influence on the data collected and on data processing, nor are we aware of the full extent of data collection or deletion, the purposes of processing, or the storage periods. TANOS is not responsible for the privacy practices of any social media plug-in provider or website. The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as user profiles and uses these for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation takes place in particular (including for users who are not logged in) for the presentation of ads tailored to suit a market need and in order to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You may block or object to the creation of these user profiles by contacting the respective plug-in provider.  Through the plug-ins we offer you the possibility to interact with social networks and other users, so that we can improve our website and services and make them more interesting for you as a user. If you are logged in to a social media provider via your personal user account during your visit to our website, the provider can assign the website visit to your account. By interacting with plug-ins, e.g. by clicking the "Like" button or leaving a comment, this information is transmitted directly to these companies and stored there.
If you visit one of our pages equipped with a Vimeo plugin, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established. The Vimeo server will be informed which of our pages you have visited. Vimeo also obtains your IP address. This also applies if you are not logged in to Vimeo or do not have an account with Vimeo. The information collected by Vimeo is transmitted to the Vimeo server in the USA. TANOS is not responsible for the privacy practices of Vimeo. If you are logged in to your Vimeo account, you allow Vimeo to associate your web surfing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account.
For more information on the handling of user data, please refer to Vimeo's privacy policy at: https://vimeo.com/privacy
If you wish to prevent such data transmission, you must log out of your account before visiting our website. The purpose and scope of the data collection by these companies as  well as the further processing and use of your data there and your rights and setting  options for the protection of your privacy can be found in the Privacy Statements provided by:
