1.1 This data protection declaration explains which personal data (the "Data") are processed when using the internet services of westwert projects GmbH & Co. KG ("our Website"), and how this Data is subsequently protected by westwert projects GmbH & Co. KG as the controller.

1.2 You will find information on our processing of Data below, or you may contact us at office@westwert.net. The Website contains links to third-party websites. We have no control over the content or privacy practices of these other websites. Please read the respective data protection provisions of these other websites that you visit. 2 PROCESSING OF DATA 2.1 When you visit our Website, we process the Data that you voluntarily provide (e.g. in connection with a product or service request, contact form, registration, communication with you personally, or your job application), such as title, name, contact data (telephone number, address, email address).

1.3 However, you can also visit our website without actively providing us with disclosures about your identity. In this case, we will only gather the personal data transmitted by your browser to our server. This data will be anonymised or gathered using pseudonyms in order to deliver the contents of the website to the user's computer and in order to perform an evaluation for the purposes of optimising and monitoring the functionality of our web presence while ensuring the security of our information technology systems (Art. 6 Para. 1 Letter f GDPR).

1.4 Our log files contain disclosures about the date and time of retrieval of our website, browser type, version and settings, your operating system and Internet service provider, about the websites used by you to get to our website or which called up by you via our website, as well as the quantity of data transmitted.

1.5 Your IP address will likewise be gathered on a case-by-case basis, i.e. an address allocated by your Internet service provider to your computer once to connect to the Internet. This IP address enables communication on the Internet. Your Internet service provider can retrace the IP address allocated to you at a given point in time. Since the full IP address allows at least to establish an indirect relation to an identifiable person on this account, we will exclusively gather your IP address in an abbreviated (anonymised) form to ensure that establishing any relation to an identifiable person by us will be excluded, and we will store it separately from any personal data.

1.6 Collection of such data to provide the website and to store the data in log files will be absolutely necessary to ensure operation of the website. Any possibility to object does not exist in this context.

2.1 Furthermore, our website also uses cookies to collect your data exclusively while using pseudonyms. Cookies are small data packages generated by a web server and placed on the hard drive of your computer while your computer is communicating with the web server.

2.2 These information can also include Data such as IP address, web browser, device type, unique device identification numbers, name of the file accessed, date and time of access, amount of data transmitted, notification of successful access. We may also collect information about how your device interacts with our website, such as which pages were accessed and which links were clicked. Some of these Data may be collected by using cookies or similar technologies.

2.3 We use two types of cookies: (1) necessary cookies, without which the function of our website would not be possible or only to a limited extent (for which consent is not necessary), and (2) optional cookies for purposes of website analysis and marketing. By collecting this information, we can better understand who visits our website, where visitors come from and what content on our website they are interested in. We use this information for our internal analysis and to improve the quality of our website and to better tailor it to the interests of our visitors. Furthermore, the Data can be used to guarantee network and data security.

3.1 For optimization purposes our website uses the web analytics tool by Google LLC. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies. Google Analytics places a cookie on your computer to recognize you on an anonymous basis when you return to a particular website. Google uses the information obtained by the cookie to store a profile of which pages you have visited within a session.

3.2 The stored information of the use of the website (e.g. pages visited, time spent on the website) generated by the cookies is transmitted and saved on a server by Google in the USA. This website has activated the IP anonymization, whereby the IP address is shortened by Google within the EU and the EEA. Only in exceptional cases the whole IP address is first transferred to a server of Google in the USA and then shortened. Google is certified under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, so that an adequate level of data protection is ensured when processing data in the USA. Google is a processor for our company and processes the Data solely on our behalf. We have a direct customer relationship with Google for the use of Google Analytics, by accepting the "Data Processing Amendment" for Google Analytics. To find out more about the "Data Processing Amendment" in Google Analytics please visit: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/3379636?hl=en&utm_id=ad.

3.3 The Data received from Google Analytics will be used by us for our own business activities and planning, as well as for marketing activities, in order to better understand how the content of our website and the associated experience can be optimized. The IP address processed by Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google.

3.4 This website uses the "Demographics" function of Google Analytics. Thereby reports can be created which contain information about age, gender and interests of site users. These data originate from interest-based advertisements of Google as well as user data from third party providers. These data cannot be attributed to natural persons.

3.5 You can also disable the collected website specific data (IP address) through cookies sent and processed by Google, by downloading and installing the following browser plugin (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).

4.1 Our websites use the features of Google Analytics Remarketing combined with the cross-device capabilities of Google AdWords and DoubleClick. This service is provided by Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

4.2 This feature makes it possible to link target audiences for promotional marketing created with Google Analytics Remarketing to the cross-device capabilities of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. This allows advertising to be displayed based on your personal interests, identified based on your previous usage and surfing behaviour on one device (e.g. your mobile phone), on other devices (such as a tablet or computer).

4.3 Once you have given your consent, Google will associate your web and app browsing history with your Google Account for this purpose. That way, any device that signs in to your Google Account can use the same personalized promotional messaging.

4.4 To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated IDs of users that are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create audiences for cross-device ad promotion.

4.5 You can permanently opt out of cross-device remarketing/targeting by turning off personalized advertising in your Google Account; follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.

4.6 The aggregation of the data collected in your Google Account data is based solely on your consent, which you may give or withdraw from Google per Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO. For data collection operations not merged into your Google Account (for example, because you do not have a Google Account or have objected to the merge), the collection of data is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing anonymous user behaviour for promotional purposes.
