Use of Google services

‍Infometis AG uses the following Google products on its company websites: Google Analytics, Google Adwords, Google Search Console.

Legal basis

The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is your consent in accordance with GDPR Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1: https://dsgvo-gesetz.de/art-6-dsgvo/.

Use of Google Analytics

Provided you have given your consent, Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"), is used on the Infometis AG website you are visiting. Google Analytics uses "cookies," which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website will generally be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

Infometis uses this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage.

Use of Google AdWords

This website uses Google AdWords, an online advertising program of Google Inc. ("Google"), and within this framework also conversion tracking (visit action evaluation). Google Conversion Tracking is an analytics service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). With conversion tracking, Google AdWords places a cookie on your computer ("conversion cookie") if you have reached our website via a Google ad. These cookies expire after 90 days and are not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that someone clicked on the ad and was thus redirected to our site.

Each AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Therefore, cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of different AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics. This only records the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. Infometis does not receive any information that can personally identify users. This processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, due to our legitimate interest in targeted advertising and analyzing its effectiveness and efficiency.

You can prevent participation in this tracking process in several ways: a) by adjusting your browser settings accordingly; in particular, blocking third-party cookies will prevent you from receiving ads from third-party providers; b) by disabling conversion tracking cookies by configuring your browser to block cookies from the domain "googleadservices.com" (https://adssettings.google.de/). This setting will be deleted if you clear your cookies. c) by disabling interest-based ads from providers participating in the "About Ads" self-regulatory campaign via the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices. This setting will also be deleted if you clear your cookies. d) by permanently disabling tracking in your Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Google Chrome browser via the link http://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. Please note that in this case, you may not be able to fully utilize all the features of this service.
