Legitimate interests pursuant to article 6 (1)(f) of the GDPR are the legal basis for this, where our legitimate interest lies in optimising how we address our customers and potential customers.

In addition, we use what is known as “advanced matching” as part of the Facebook Pixel.

Processing therefore only takes place on the basis of your express consent pursuant to article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.

You are entitled to revoke your consent at any time or, for reasons arising from your personal situation, to object to your personal data being processed at any time pursuant to article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. To change your current consent, please click this link.

LinkedIn tags are used to enable detailed campaign reports and to gain information about actual visitor target groups (not visitor identities) on our website and, consequently, serve our interest in optimised marketing measures. 
Processing is based on your express consent pursuant to article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. Only in the event that your approval proves ineffective for formal reasons do we base processing on the legal basis of the balancing of interests pursuant to article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR where our legitimate interest lies in optimising our marketing efforts. 
You can find information on data collection (purpose, scope, further processing and use) and on your rights and settings options from the LinkedIn data protection information. You can find this information on LinkedIn at: www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.
