We also process your personal data, which we have collected when concluding a contractual relationship (e.g. when booking an event) via our website, for our own marketing purposes within the framework of the statutory provisions, in particular in order to adapt our offers to your interests in a needs-based manner and to send you corresponding information by e-mail or post. The legal basis for this data processing for the purpose of direct advertising is initially Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) DS-GVO in conjunction with. § Section 7 (3) UWG.
You may object to the processing of your data for these advertising purposes at any time. In the event of an objection, we will no longer process your personal data for the purposes in question. More detailed information on the objection and the consequences of an objection can be found in the following privacy policy (see below). Should the processing of your personal data be carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) DS-GVO, you have a right of revocation with effect for the future at any time.
The provision of the personal data dutifully indicated in the contract form is necessary for the conclusion of the contract. The customer is obliged to provide all personal data specified. If the data is withheld, proper execution and fulfillment of the contract cannot be guaranteed with the consequence of refusal to conclude the contract. The same applies with the consequence of a possible termination of the contract, if the customer claims the deletion or restriction of the processing of the data, which are necessary for the execution of the contract.
A disclosure of the customer's personal data is made - within the scope of the purposes stated in section 3 - only for the purpose of fulfilling the contract (e.g. congress hotels as well as congress organizers) or if we are legally obliged to do so.

The legal basis for the storage, processing and disclosure of your data is, on the one hand, your consent (e.g. in the case of newsletters or comments), a weighing of interests that did not result in a restriction of your rights and freedoms (e.g. due to our interest in using analysis tools with the help of which we measure the success of our website and optimize surfing on the site, or e.g. when answering your inquiries via the contact form) or, in the case of a purchase, the purchase contract with you.
You can object to the processing of your personal data for purposes of direct advertising and/ or market research at any time without giving reasons.

In the event of a justified objection, we will generally no longer process the personal data for the purposes in question and delete the data, unless we can demonstrate compelling reasons for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
The customer has the right to complain to the competent supervisory authority if he believes that the processing of personal data concerning him violates data protection regulations.

In the following, we inform you which services of the Google Group (for users within the EU: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland; outside the EU: Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). are used on our website.
For more information on data protection at Google, please visit: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy, Google's data collection and use statement at https://privacy.google.com/intl/de/your-data.html and https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.
a) Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Group. Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookies about your use of this website is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Due to the IP anonymization activated on our website, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area in order to ensure anonymized recording of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).
In exceptional cases, the full IP address is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing 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 any other data held by Google.
For more information, see Google's statement on data use on websites using Google services at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites?hl=de, on "advertising" by Google at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=de, and information and options for disabling personalized advertising at https://adssettings.google.de/authenticated.
b) Google Ads
We use the online advertising program "Google Ads" on our website and in this context conversion tracking (visit action evaluation). Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service provided by Google. Please note that Google may use personal data that you have provided, e.g. if you are logged into your Google account, have activated your location (GPS) and allow Google to access it, or are using an Android device. Google does not share this data with us. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is placed on your computer. These cookies have a limited validity (usually up to 30 days), do not contain any personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Because each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie, there is no way that cookies can be tracked across Ads customers' websites.
The information obtained with the help of the conversion cookie is used for the purpose of creating conversion statistics. Here, we learn the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. In this context, we neither receive nor process information with which users can be personally identified.
To this end, you can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate technical settings in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. In addition, you can deactivate personalized advertising for you in Google's advertising settings. You can find instructions on how to do this at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=de. Further information as well as Google's privacy policy can be found at: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/
c) Google Tag Manager
In order to integrate and manage the described services of Google and possibly other services of other providers listed here, we can use the "Google Tag Manager". The Google Tag Manager merely implements and manages tags; this service itself does not set any further cookies or collect any personal data.
d) YouTube and information about Doubleclick by Google
On our website we use the plug-in of the service YouTube, which belongs to Google.
The plug-in is recognizable on our site by the embedded video, which can be clicked on. When you click on the video on one of our pages, your browser establishes a direct connection with the YouTube servers via a cookie. The YouTube server thus receives information about which particular page of our website you have visited.
In other places on our website, there is only a clickable link to a YouTube video. When you click on it, the video opens in a new tab on the YouTube page, where Google's privacy policy applies (see below).
If you are logged into your YouTube account or other Google account, you would enable YouTube or Google by clicking on the video or the link, your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. Google also uses the data for personalized advertising, to customize its services and for market research. You can prevent this possibility of assignment if you log out of your account beforehand. You can also turn off personalized advertising in the settings in your Google account or on your Android device. Further information on this and on how to object to Google's use of data can be found in the privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de
Since we embed YouTube videos on our website, "Doubleclick by Google" is also in use there on the website. Doubleclick, like YouTube, belongs to Google. Doubleclick uses cookies for advertisements and for measuring the success of advertisements. For this purpose, your browser is assigned a so-called pseudonymous identification number (pID). According to Google, Doubleclick cookies do not contain any personal information. However, Google uses the cookies and the pID to identify which pages have been visited in order to serve ads across pages and analyzes which ads have been displayed and which, if any, have been called up, i.e. clicked on. Doubleclick can use cookie IDs to record so-called conversions, which are related to ad requests. In addition, we point out that Google can assign the website visit to your Google account if you are registered and logged in to one of the Google services. Even without registration or login, it is technically possible for Google to query and store your IP address. The information generated by the cookies is transferred by Google to a server in the USA or another EU third country for evaluation and stored there.
If you do not wish to receive personalized advertising, you can set this accordingly at http://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/?hl=de. To prevent tracking, you can
However, such a setting may mean that our website cannot be used without restrictions. For more information about Doubleclick by Google, please visit https://www.google.de/doubleclick.
