Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service that uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website usage and internet usage to us. We use Google Analytics to analyze and regularly improve the use of our website. With the statistics we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics for a cross-device analysis of visitor traffic conducted via a user ID. You can disable the cross-device analysis of your use in your customer account under “My Data”, “Personal Information”.

Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords)

We use Google Ads in order to draw attention to our products and services with the help of advertising (so-called Google Ads) on external web pages. In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. To do this, we use ad server cookies, from which certain performance metrics such as ads or user clicks can be measured. If you access our website through a Google ad, Google Ads will store a cookie on your device. These cookies allow Google to recognize your internet browser. We do not collect and process any personal data as part of this process.

Google Remarketing

In addition to Ads Conversion, we use the Google remarketing application, which enables you to see our ads after visiting our website as you continue to use the internet. This is done by means of cookies stored in your browser, through which your usage behavior when visiting various websites is recorded and evaluated by Google. With the use of remarketing, information about your browsing behavior is collected for marketing purposes in anonymous form and stored on your computer using cookies.

Google Campaign Manager (formerly Google DoubleClick) 

This website uses the online marketing tool Campaign Manager by Google. Campaign Manager uses cookies to place ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads multiple times. Campaign Manager cookies (DoubleClick Floodlight) help us to understand whether you complete certain actions on our website after viewing any of our display/video ads on Google or other platforms through Campaign Manager or clicking through one of these ads (conversion tracking). Campaign Manager applies this cookie to understand the content with which you have interacted on our website to be able to send you targeted advertising later on.

Google reCAPTCHA

This website uses Google reCAPTCHA to check whether the data entered on our website (such as on a contact form) has been entered by a human or by an automated program (“bots”). reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. This service allows Google to determine from which website your request has been sent and from which IP address the reCAPTCHA input box has been used. In addition to your IP address, Google may collect other information necessary to provide and guarantee this service.

Google Fonts

This website uses Google Fonts to display external fonts. For this purpose, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly, which requires your browser to establish a direct connection to Google Servers. Google can identify the website from which your request has been sent and to which IP address the fonts are being transmitted for display.

Google Classroom

We use Google Classroom to provide you with curricula and information relevant to succeed in our programs. Please also visit https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/#topic=7301138 to learn more about Google Classrooms privacy policies. We use the data that you share with us on Google Classroom by filling out forms, quizzes or by uploading files to Google Drive to support you to complete our program successfully. In addition to that, we send you reminder emails for assignments and their due dates.

Facebook Custom Audiences / Conversion (“Facebook Pixel”)

Information/purpose:

This website uses the so-called “Facebook Pixel” of the social network “Facebook” for the following purposes:

  • Facebook (website) Custom Audiences

We use the Facebook pixel for remarketing purposes to be able to contact you again within 180 days. This allows us to display interest-based advertisements (“Facebook Ads”) to users of the website when they visit the social network “Facebook” or other websites also using this tool. In this way, we pursue the interest in displaying advertisements that are of interest to you in order to make our website or offers more interesting for you.

  • Facebook conversion

We also use the Facebook Pixel to ensure that our Facebook Ads match the potential interest of users and are not annoying. With the help of the Facebook Pixel, we can track the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called “conversion”).

Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Facebook server as soon as you have agreed to the use of cookies requiring your consent. Through the integration of the Facebook pixel, Facebook receives the information that you have called up the corresponding website of our internet presence or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Facebook service, Facebook can assign the visit to your account.

The processing of this data by Facebook takes place within the framework of Facebook’s data policy. Special information and details about the Facebook pixel and its functionality can also be found in the Facebook help area.
