Facebook pixel for the creation of custom audiences with extended data comparison (with cookie consent tool)
Within our online offer, the so-called "Facebook pixel" of the social network Facebook is used in the mode of extended data comparison, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Facebook").
On the basis of his / her express consent, when a user clicks on an advertisement played on Facebook and placed by us, the URL of our linked page is appended by Facebook Pixel. This URL parameter is then written into the user's browser via a cookie, which our linked page sets itself. In addition, this cookie collects specific customer data such as the e-mail address that we collect on our website linked to the Facebook ad for processes such as sales, account registrations or registrations (extended data comparison). The cookie is then read by Facebook Pixel and enables the data, including the specific customer data, to be forwarded to Facebook.
With the help of the Facebook pixel with extended data comparison, it is on the one hand possible for Facebook to precisely determine the visitors to our online offer as a target group for the presentation of advertisements (so-called "Facebook ads"). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel with extended data comparison in order to only display the Facebook ads placed by us to Facebook users who have also shown an interest in our online offer or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products that based on the websites visited), which we transmit to Facebook (so-called "Custom Audiences"). With the help of the Facebook pixel with extended data comparison, we would also like to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of the users and are not annoying. In this way, we can further evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by tracking whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called "conversion"). Compared to the standard version of Facebook Pixel, the extended data comparison function helps us to better measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns by recording more assigned conversions.
All transmitted data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook data usage guidelines (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). The data can enable Facebook and its partners to place advertisements on and outside of Facebook.
These processing operations are only carried out when express consent has been given in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
Consent to the use of the Facebook pixel may only be given by users who are older than 16 years. If you are younger, please ask your legal guardian for permission.
The information generated by Facebook is usually transmitted to a Facebook server and stored there; it can also be transmitted to the Facebook Inc. server in the USA. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. In order to exercise your revocation, remove the tick next to the setting for the “Facebook Pixel” in the “Cookie Consent Tool” integrated into the website.
