On its website, we use the Facebook Pixel function from Facebook Inc. 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, or if you are based in the EU, Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”).

Facebook Pixel is an analysis tool that allows Objectbay to evaluate the effectiveness of its Facebook ads. This makes it possible to display only relevant advertisements to target groups that are tailored to their interests. The Facebook code implemented on this page can analyze the behavior of those website visitors who came to this website from a Facebook ad. This can be used to continuously optimize Facebook ads. The data collected in this way is collected and stored by Facebook. The data cannot be viewed by Storebox, but can only be used as part of advertising. Cookies are also set by using the Facebook pixel.

By using the Facebook pixel, Facebook registers visits to this website so that visitors can see suitable advertisements on Facebook. If you have a Facebook account and are logged in there, your visit to this website will be associated with your Facebook account.

You can find out how the Facebook pixel is used for advertising campaigns here: https://www.facebook.com/business/learn/facebook-ads-pixel.

You can set your ad preferences on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen change, provided you are logged into your Facebook account.

This website uses Facebook's “Custom Audiences” remarketing feature. With the “extended reconciliation”, personal data is transmitted to Facebook in encrypted form. Using “Custom Audiences from File”, the email address, name and telephone number are also uploaded to Facebook in encrypted form as the recipient of the newsletter. This is used to determine the recipient of the Facebook ads and to ensure that the ads are only shown to interested users. Storebox has no influence on the quantity, quality or storage time of the transferred data. Facebook may share the data with third parties.

Our website uses plugins from the YouTube site operated by Google. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited.

If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to associate your surfing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

We provide you with links to social media platforms (such as Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn) in various areas of our website. You can recognize them by the logo of the respective social media provider. When you use our website, no personal data is initially passed on to the providers of the social media platforms. Only when you click on these links will you be redirected to the website of the respective social media provider and then transfer personal data to the provider. You are leaving our website and we have no influence on the data and data processing processes then collected, nor are we aware of the full scope of data collection, the purposes and the storage periods. If you click on such a link, the social media provider receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our online offering. In addition, the data specified in the “Collection of personal data for informational use” section of this statement will be transmitted. This is done regardless of whether you have an account with this social media provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in to the social media provider, this data is directly assigned to your account. The social media provider stores the personal data as user profiles and uses them for advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to display appropriate advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, although you must contact the respective social media provider to exercise this right. For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the social media provider, please see the privacy policies of these providers provided below. There you will also find further information about your rights in this regard and settings options to protect your privacy.

Our website contains links to external websites of third parties over whose content we have no influence. For this reason, we cannot assume any liability for this external content. The respective provider or operator of the pages is always responsible for the content of the linked pages. The linked pages were checked for possible legal violations at the time of linking and no illegal content was discernible at the time the link was created. However, continuous monitoring of the content of the linked pages is not reasonable without concrete evidence of an infringement of law. If we become aware of legal violations, we will remove such links immediately.

In principle, you have the rights to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation and objection with regard to your data stored by us.

If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates applicable legal data protection regulations, you have the right to complain to the competent supervisory authority.
