Marketing cookies in detail:
a. Google Campaign Manager (previously DoubleClick by Google)
This website also uses Campaign Manager, an online marketing tool provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). Campaign Manager uses cookies to serve ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports and to prevent users from seeing the same ads more than once. Google uses a cookie ID to record which ads are displayed in which browser. It can thus prevent them from being displayed more than once. In addition, Campaign Manager can use cookie IDs to record conversions that are related to ad requests. This is the case, for example, when a user sees a Campaign Manager ad and later uses the same browser to visit the advertiser's website and make a purchase. According to Google, Campaign Manager cookies do not contain any personal information.
Your browser connects to Google’s server automatically due to the marketing tools used. We have no control over the scope or further use of Data that Google collects using this tool and are thus informing you based on the information we have: Through the embedding of Campaign Manager, Google is informed that you have accessed the relevant part of our website or that you have clicked on one of our advertisements. If you are registered for a Google service, Google will be able to associate your visit with your account.

The Trade Desk's Marketing Services allow us to display advertisements on our website in a more targeted manner so that we only show you ads that potentially match your interests.
For these purposes, the Marketing Services execute a code when you access our website or other websites on which these Marketing Services have been activated. This involves the integration of the (re)marketing tags into the website. These are used to store an individual cookie on the user's end device.

In order to retarget users with ads on other websites that use similar technology service providers, The Trade Desk may match its cookies with those of these other technology service providers ("Technology Partners"). This is known as cookie matching. This is done in order to be able to ascertain whether the respective user has also surfed on other websites. As a result of this matching, cookies from these technology partners may also be used on our website.
We also use cookies to measure the success of our advertising activities. The information obtained with the help of the cookie is used to generate conversion statistics. This term relates to the measurement of previously defined actions that a user has performed on our website (for example, visiting a specific page or placing an order). For example, we subsequently ascertain the total number of users who clicked on an ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion capture. However, we do not receive any information that would enable us to personally identify a user. We do not share these conversion statistics with third parties.
User data are processed in pseudonymized form as part of Marketing Services.
