We participate in affiliate partner programmes. In affiliate partner programmes, advertisements from a company (advertiser) are placed on websites of other companies in the affiliate partner network (publisher). If you click on an of these affiliate adverts, you will be forwarded to the advertised offer. If you subsequently make a certain transaction (conversion), the publisher receives a payment for this. In order to calculate this remuneration, it is necessary for the affiliate network operator to be able to track which advert brought you to the respective offer and which predefined transaction you carried out. Cookies or comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device fingerprinting) are used for this purpose.
The data is stored and analysed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the correct calculation of its affiliate remuneration. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.
