We do not have access to the data collected (e.g. IP addresses, information on the web browser, location of the website, buttons you clicked on, Pixel IDs and other features), we may only use it to display certain ads.
If you have a Facebook account and are logged in, your visit to this Website will be associated with your Facebook user account.
We also use Facebook’s remarketing feature “Custom Audiences”. This feature enables the display of interest-based ads (“Facebook Ads”) to users of our website that are visiting Facebook or other websites that use this function. We pursue the interest of displaying ads to you that are relevant to your interests to provide you with a more interesting experience on our website.
Your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Facebook server to exchange the relevant data. We have no control over the extent and further processing of the data collected by Facebook using this tool and therefore we provide the information available to us: the integration of Facebook Custom Audiences provides Facebook with the information that you visited the relevant web page or clicked on one of our ads. In case you are logged into a “Facebook” service, Facebook can associate your visit with your account. Even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not logged in, there is a possibility that the provider ascertains your IP address and other identifiers and stores them.
If you have given your consent, we might pass your telephone number or e-mail address to Facebook to be able to display ads that are relevant to your interests.
