Facebook Custom Audience

Our website uses so-called Facebook Custom Audience of the social network Facebook, a service. It is offered to users outside the U.S. and Canada by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Facebook") and for all other users by Facebook Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA ("Facebook"). To do this, a so-called pixel is implemented on our website by Facebook. With the help of the pixel, Facebook is able to determine visitors to our website as the target group for the display of ads (so-called "Facebook ads"). This only shows the Facebook ad we run to those who have shown an interest in our online offering.

In the event that personal information is transferred to the US, Facebook is subject to the EU-US Privacy Shield. Facebook uses this data to match as many customers as possible with Facebook user accounts. These user accounts make up a list of the audiences (custom audiences) we can send ads to on Facebook. Facebook can also create new audiences based on customer data and search for other users that resemble our customer groups.
