Google AdWords

This website uses Google AdWords, an analytic service provided by Google, Google AdWords uses conversion tracking. Google AdWords stores a cookie for conversion tracking in your browser (so-called “conversion cookie”) when you click on an ad placed by Google. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not for personal identification.

The information obtained by the conversion cookies is used to generate statistics for AdWords customers using conversion tracking. These statistics tell us the total number of users who clicked on the ad served by Google and viewed a page with a conversion tracking tag.

In addition to conversion tracking, we sometimes use the following functions:

• Remarketing
• Target groups with common interests
• Custom audiences with common interests
• Ready to buy target groups
• Similar audiences
• Demographic and geographic targeting.

Google’s remarketing feature will reach people who have already visited our site. This allows us to present our advertising to target groups who are already interested in our products or services. Additionally, AdWords identifies common interests and characteristics of the users of our website based on user behaviour on websites within the Google display network as well as contextual search engines over the last 30 days. Based on this information, AdWords will then find new potential customers for marketing purposes whose interests and characteristics are similar to those of users of our website. Targeted remarketing is accomplished through the combined use of cookies, such as: Google Analytics cookies and Google DoubleClick cookies.
