Cookies

We use so-called cookies in some areas of our website. These file elements allow your computer to be identified as a technical unit on this website during your visit in order to make it easier for you to use our website – even on repeat visits. These cookies are used to identify your client anonymously and to store whether you have taken note of the notice on the use of cookies. No personal data is stored or transmitted.

However, you usually have the option of setting your Internet browser to inform you about the occurrence of cookies so that you can allow or exclude them or delete existing cookies. Please use the help function of your Internet browser to obtain information on how to change these settings. We would like to point out that individual functions of our website may not work if you have deactivated the use of cookies.

Cookies do not allow a server to read private data from your computer or data stored by another server. They do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses.

We base the use of technically necessary cookies on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR: the processing is carried out to improve the functionality of our website. It is therefore necessary to protect our legitimate interests.

If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the consent can be revoked at any time.

The following cookies are used on our website:

Essential

Essential services enable basic functions and are necessary for the proper functioning of the website.

Statistics

Statistics cookies collect usage data that provide us with information about how our visitors interact with our website.

 

Use of Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookies about your use of this website (including your IP address) is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

We would like to point out that IP addresses are recorded anonymously on this website. Due to the activation of IP anonymization on this 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. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.

Google will use this information on our behalf for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing us with 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 other Google data.

The storage of cookies and tracking will only take place after you have given your express consent to the use of tracking cookies. This consent can be revoked at any time. You can also prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; 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 can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by clicking on the following link (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de) by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link.

You can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting data by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will then be set to prevent further collection of your data when you visit this website. This procedure is particularly recommended when accessing our website via mobile devices.

Deactivate Google Analytics

 

Use of the advertising functions of Google Analytics

In addition to the standard configuration of Google Analytics, this website also uses Google Analytics functions that support interest-based advertising and advertising based on the surfing behavior of users. Google Analytics uses a third-party cookie from DoubleClick to evaluate data about the surfing behavior of users on various websites. This data can be used to make statistical statements about demographic data and areas of interest of website users.

We expressly point out that we do not view any data about individual users and that the statistical data we use cannot be traced back to specific users.

 

Online presences in social media

We maintain online presences within social networks and platforms in order to communicate with the customers, interested parties and users active there and to inform them about our services.

We would like to point out that user data may be processed outside the European Union. This may result in risks for users because, for example, it could make it more difficult to enforce users’ rights.

Furthermore, user data is generally processed for market research and advertising purposes. For example, usage profiles can be created from the usage behavior and the resulting interests of the users. The user profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements inside and outside the platforms that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the user’s computer, in which the user’s usage behavior and interests are stored.

Furthermore, data can also be stored in the user profiles independently of the devices used by the users (especially if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them).

The processing of users’ personal data is based on our legitimate interests in effective user information and communication with users in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. If the users are asked by the respective providers of the platforms for consent to the data processing described above, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7 GDPR.

For a detailed description of the respective processing and the opt-out options, we refer to the following linked information from the providers.

In the case of requests for information and the assertion of user rights, we would also like to point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the providers. Only the providers have access to the users’ data and can take appropriate measures and provide information directly. If you still need help, you can contact us.

 

Social networks

Social media cookies make it possible to establish a connection to your social networks and to share content from our website within your networks.

Our website uses buttons for the social networks:

  • LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland,
  • XING / New Work SE, Am Strandkai 1, 20457 Hamburg, Germany.

The buttons are marked with the logo of the respective social network. However, these are not the usual social plug-ins, but buttons with stored links. You must activate the buttons separately by clicking on them.

As long as these buttons are not clicked, no data is transmitted to the social networks. Only when you click on the buttons and thereby declare your consent to communication with the servers of the social network will the buttons become active and the connection be established.

Once clicked, the button corresponds to a so-called share plug-in. The social network is provided with information about the page you have visited, which you can share with your contacts in your social network. If you want to “share” the information, you must be logged in. If you are not logged in, you will land on the login page of the social network you clicked on and will no longer be on the pages of four-pack.de. If you are logged in, the information that you would like to recommend the respective article will be transmitted.

By activating the button, the social networks then receive, among other things, the information that and when you have accessed the corresponding page of our website, as well as, for example, your IP address, information on the browser used and the language settings. If you click on the button, your click will be transmitted to the social network and used in accordance with its data usage guidelines. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the respective social network as well as your rights in this regard and setting options to protect your privacy can be found in the following information:
