We have entered into a data processing agreement with Cloudflare.

7. YouTube mit erweitertem Datenschutz

Videos from YouTube are embedded on our website in enhanced privacy mode. YouTube cookies are not set until the video is actively playing.

8. Google Ads – Measuring Success (Offline Conversion Tracking)

We run ads through Google Ads and use offline conversion tracking to measure which ads lead to actual inquiries and orders.

How tracking works technically: When you click on one of our Google ads, Google stores a cookie in your browser containing a unique Google click ID (GCLID). This cookie is stored in your browser for a maximum of 90 days. If you subsequently submit an inquiry via our contact form, we collect the following data—only with your prior consent:

• Email address
• Google Click ID (GCLID), if available
• Date of the inquiry
• Order Status and Value

Storage and Internal Processing: The data is stored in a secure environment; access is restricted to authorized individuals. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the data from unauthorized access.

What data is transmitted to Google: We use your email address exclusively for internal purposes to match your inquiry with our order data. Once the assignment is complete, we transmit only the Google Click ID (GCLID) to Google, along with the order value as a conversion signal. Your email address is not transmitted to Google.

If the Google Ads conversion tag is also active on our website, the following data is additionally transmitted to Google: pages or URLs visited; information indicating that a previously defined conversion event has occurred (e.g., a contact request); your truncated IP address; technical information such as browser, device, and screen resolution; a randomly generated user ID.

Consent via our performance tracking page: On our performance tracking page, you can provide us with your email address and separately consent to our use of cookies for statistics and marketing. Both forms of consent are voluntary. You can revoke them at any time via the cookie settings or by sending a message to info@hinterdobler.de.

Service Provider, Data Processing, and Liability: The service provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. To the extent that Google processes personal data as a data processor, this is done on the basis of a data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR). In addition, certain data processing activities may be carried out under our sole responsibility (Art. 4(7) GDPR) or jointly with Google (Art. 26 GDPR).

Data Transfer to the U.S.: Some processing is carried out by Google LLC in the U.S. The primary legal basis for the transfer is the European Commission’s Adequacy Decision regarding the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Art. 45 GDPR); Google LLC is certified under this framework. In addition, Standard Contractual Clauses issued by the European Commission pursuant to Art. 46 of the GDPR have been agreed upon with Google; these serve as a subsidiary safeguard should the adequacy decision no longer apply in the future.

Legal Basis: The legal basis for the processing is your consent pursuant to Article 6(1), first sentence, letter a of the GDPR, and for the setting of cookies, Section 25(1) of the TDDDG. You provide your consent via our consent management tool or by confirming it during the inquiry/quote process.

Withdrawal of Consent: You may withdraw your consent at any time with future effect, for example, through your cookie settings or by sending a message to info@hinterdobler.de. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place prior to the withdrawal.

Retention Period: Data stored internally is deleted as soon as it is no longer needed for matching and advertising analysis, but no later than 14 months.
