Controller <\/h2>\n\nThe Controller, within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (Art. 4(7) GDPR) and the other national data privacy laws, as well as any other provisions under data protection law, is:\n\nClimbing Perch UG (haftungsbeschr\u00e4nkt)\n\nLindenstr. 33A\n\n12555 Berlin\n\nE-Mail: info@climbingperch.com\n\nFull provider identification: www.easytranscript.de\/imprint\n\nThese contact details are thus relevant for all matters of a data privacy nature relating to this website, as well as any claims on your part under data privacy law.\n\n

B. Collecting and storing of personal data when visiting our website<\/h2>\n\nBelow, we provide information about the processes relevant to data protection that take place when you visit our website.\n

1. Logfiles<\/h3>\nWe host the content of our website with IONOS SE, Elgendorfer Str. 57, 56410 Montabaur (hereinafter referred to as IONOS). When you visit our website, IONOS collects various log files, including your IP addresses. For details, please refer to the IONOS privacy policy: https:\/\/www.ionos.de\/terms-gtc\/terms-privacy<\/a>. \n\nThe use of IONOS is based on Art. 6 para. (1) (f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in ensuring that our website is displayed as reliably as possible. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. (1) a DSGVO und \u00a7 25 Abs. 1 TDDDG, soweit die Einwilligung die Speicherung von Cookies oder den Zugriff auf Informationen im Endger\u00e4t des Nutzers (z. B. Device-Fingerprinting) im\nSinne des TDDDG umfasst. Die Einwilligung ist jederzeit widerrufbar. \n\nWe have concluded a contract for order processing (AVV) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract required by data protection law, which ensures that the personal data of our website visitors is only processed in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR. \n

2. Cookies and Consent-Management<\/h3>\nWe deploy so-called \u201ccookies\u201d on our website. These are small files that your browser creates automatically, and which are stored on your computer system if you visit our site. Cookies do not harm your computer system, and do not contain any viruses, Trojan horses, or other malware.\n\nIn order to manage these cookies and external services in compliance with data protection regulations, we use consent technology from Borlabs Cookie (provider: Borlabs GmbH, R\u00fcbenkamp 32, 22305 Hamburg). When you visit our website, a Borlabs cookie is stored in your browser, documenting the consents you have given or the revocation of these consents. This data is not passed on to the provider of Borlabs Cookie. It is used to obtain the legally required consents for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR.
Translated with DeepL.com (free version) (1) c GDPR.\n\nWe deploy cookies to improve our website, thus, for example, to design it to be more user-friendly and adapt it to users\u2019 interests.\n\nIn that respect, the following data is stored in the cookies and transmitted:\n
    \n \t
  1. Language settings<\/li>\n \t
  2. Login details<\/li>\n \t
  3. Making use of website functions<\/li>\n \t
  4. Order Attribution: We use WooCommerce’s built-in order attribution to analyze the origin of orders (e.g., which ad or search engine a purchase was made through).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nThe data gathered in this way is pseudonymised by means of technical precautions. Therefore, it is generally not possible to assign the data to you. The data is not stored together with other personal data unless this is necessary for contract processing (e.g., for an order). \n\nThe data processed by cookies is necessary for the purposes mentioned, in order to protect our legitimate interests, as well as those of third parties, pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) GDPR.\n\nMost browsers accept cookies automatically. In order to prevent this, you may, however, configure your browser in such a way that no cookies are stored on your computer system, or that a notice always appears before a new cookie is placed. Completely deactivating cookies may, however, lead to you not being able to use all the functions of our website.\n

    3. Website Analysis<\/h3>\n

    Matomo<\/h4>\n\nThis website uses the open source web analytics service Matomo.\n\nWith the help of Matomo, we are able to collect and analyze data about how visitors use our website. This allows us to find out, among other things, when page views were made and which region they came from. We also collect various log files (e.g., IP address, referrer, browsers and operating systems used) and can measure whether our website visitors perform certain actions (e.g., clicks, purchases, etc.). \n\nThe use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. (1) a GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s terminal device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG.\nConsent can be revoked at any time. \n\nWe use IP anonymization for analysis with Matomo. This means that your IP address is truncated before analysis, so that it can no longer be clearly assigned to you. \n\nWe have configured Matomo so that Matomo does not store any cookies in your browser.\n\n

    Google Ads<\/h4>\n\nThe website operator uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising program from Google Ireland Limited (\u201cGoogle\u201d),\nGordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. \n\nGoogle Ads enables us to display advertisements in the Google search engine or on third-party websites when the user enters specific search terms in Google (keyword targeting). Furthermore, targeted advertisements can be displayed based on user data available to Google (e.g., location data and interests) (target group targeting). As website operators, we can evaluate this data quantitatively, for example by analyzing which search terms led to the display of our advertisements and how many advertisements led to corresponding clicks. \n\nThe use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. (1) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent may be revoked at any time. \n\nData transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy\/frameworks<\/a> and https:\/\/business.safety.google\/controllerterms\/<\/a>. \n\nThe company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the US that aims to ensure compliance with European data protection standards when data is processed in the US. Every company certified under the DPF undertakes to comply with these data protection standards. Further information on this can be obtained from the provider at the following link: https:\/\/www.dataprivacyframework.gov\/participant\/5780.<\/a> \n\n

    Google Ads Remarketing<\/h4>\n\nThis website uses the functions of Google Ads Remarketing. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (\u201cGoogle\u201d), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. \n\nWith Google Ads Remarketing, we can assign people who interact with our online offering to specific target groups in order to then show them interest-based advertising on the Google advertising network (remarketing or retargeting).\n\nFurthermore, the advertising target groups created with Google Ads Remarketing can be linked to Google’s cross-device functions. This allows interest-based, personalized advertising messages that have been tailored to you based on your previous usage and browsing behavior on one device (e.g., cell phone) to also be displayed on another of your devices (e.g., tablet or PC). \n\nIf you have a Google account, you can opt out of personalized advertising at the following link: https:\/\/adssettings.google.com\/anonymous?hl=de.<\/a>\n\nThe use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. (1) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent may be revoked at any time. \n\nFurther information and the privacy policy can be found in Google’s privacy policy at: https:\/\/policies.google.com\/technologies\/ads?hl=de.<\/a>\n\nThe company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF).

With the help of Google Conversion Tracking, Google and we can recognize whether the user has performed certain actions. For example, we can evaluate which buttons on our website are clicked how often and which products are viewed or purchased particularly frequently. This information is used to compile conversion statistics. We learn the total number of users who clicked on our ads and what actions they took. We do not receive any information that allows us to personally identify the user. Google itself uses cookies or similar recognition technologies for identification. \n\nThe use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. (1) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent may be revoked at any time. \n\nMehr Informationen zu Google Conversion-Tracking finden Sie in den Datenschutzbestimmungen von Google: https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy?hl=de<\/a>.\n\nThe company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF).
