1.1 Foreword
The operators of www.rabenring.com take the protection of private data seriously. Particular attention to privacy when processing personal data is a top priority. Personal data is processed in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG); the operators of this website are committed to maintaining confidentiality. These websites may contain links to websites of other providers, to which this privacy policy does not apply.
The operators reserve the right to change the security and data protection measures if this is necessary due to technical developments and to adapt the data protection declaration accordingly.
1.2 Personal data
Personal data is information that can be used to determine someone's identity. This includes information such as their real name, address, postal address, and telephone number. Information that is not directly linked to their real identity (e.g., favorite websites or the number of users of a website) is not included. Our online offering can generally be used without revealing their identity. When you access our website, data (e.g., date, time, and pages viewed) is stored on the server. No personal data is used. We reserve the right to conduct statistical evaluations of anonymized data records. We use personal data for the purposes of technical website administration and customer management only to the extent necessary in each case. Personal data is neither sold nor marketed in any other way. Furthermore, personal data is only stored if provided voluntarily.
1.3 Disclosure of personal data
We use personal information only for this website. We do not share this information with third parties without your express consent. Our employees are obligated to maintain confidentiality and to comply with the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). If data is shared with service providers as part of contract data processing, these service providers are bound by the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), other statutory provisions, and this Privacy Policy. Personal data is only collected or shared with government institutions and authorities within the framework of mandatory legal provisions.
1.4 Use of cookies
We use "cookies" – small files containing configuration information. They help determine user-specific settings and implement special user functions. We do not collect any personal data through cookies. All website functions can be used without cookies; however, some user-defined features and settings will then not be available.
1.5 Data protection notice
1.5.1 Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). 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 is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, Google will shorten your IP address beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Please note that this website uses Google Analytics with the extension "_anonymizeIp()" and therefore IP addresses are only processed in shortened form to prevent them from being directly linked to a person. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data held by Google. You can prevent cookies from being saved by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that if you do this you may not be able to use all of the functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de .
1.5.2 Google Adwords
This offering uses the Google AdWords online advertising program, which is operated by Google Inc. ("Google") in the USA and, as part of this, conversion tracking. Cookies may be used for this purpose. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this offering and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to compile conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users. Users who do not wish to participate in tracking can easily deactivate the Google Conversion Tracking cookie via their internet browser under user settings. These users will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. For more information, see
https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ .
The following Google AdWords features are used on this website:
- Remarketing
- Interest categories
- Similar target groups
- Other types of interest-based advertising
We use these Google Adwords features to retarget visitors to this website on third-party websites or to target internet users with specific interest profiles based on their internet usage. We do not collect any personal information with our cookies, remarketing lists, or other anonymous IDs.
Upon request, we will provide you with information about the data stored about you or your pseudonym free of charge. We are also obligated to correct, block, or delete the data stored about you upon request.
1.5.3 YouTube
Integration of third-party services and content It may happen that third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites, is integrated into this online offering. This always assumes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") perceive the IP address of the user. Without the IP address, they could not send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore necessary for the display of this content. We endeavour to only use content whose respective providers use the IP address solely to deliver the content. However, we have no influence on whether the third-party providers save the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. As far as we are aware of this, we will inform users about it.
1.5.4 Newsletter
With the newsletter we inform you about us and our offers.
You can revoke your consent to the storage of your email address and its use for sending the newsletter at any time. You can revoke your consent via a link in the newsletter itself or by sending a message to the contact details provided on this website.
1.6 Third-party websites/links
Our online offering contains links to other websites. We have no influence on their operators' compliance with data protection regulations. These links to third-party websites do not constitute approval of their content by the operators of www.rabenring.com. The operators assume no responsibility for the availability or content of such websites and no liability for damages or injuries resulting from the use of such content – regardless of the nature of the content. Links to other websites are provided to users of this website solely as a convenience. Connecting to these websites is at the user's own risk.
1.7 Revocation, changes, corrections and updates
The user has the right to receive, upon request and free of charge, information about the personal data stored about him or her.
