2.6 Use of Google Analytics Advertising Features
Depending on the pages you visit on our Website, we may further use certain Google Analytics Display Advertising features, such as demographics and interest reporting and remarketing features.
To enable these features, a third-party DoubleClick Cookie will be placed on your device by Google (when you visit certain pages of our website or websites from other publishers that have implemented advertising features based on the DoubleClick Cookie).
The DoubleClick Cookie stores information about your use of our Website (and eventually other websites visited in the Google advertising network), including the sites visited, ad views, page views, user interaction data, browser information, IP-address, a cookie ID, and your search history. Google will not link your name or other personally identifiable information to your DoubleClick cookie without your prior approval.
We use Google Analytics to analyze the data stored in the DoubleClick Cookie in order to obtain statistical reports on our user's demographics (age, gender) and interests. These reports help us to better understand our users and to improve our website and services.
In addition, we use Google Analytics' remarketing features to run advertising campaigns (including Google AdWords) to users of our Website. Based on their prior visits to our website (and their interests expressed during those previous sessions), these users will be delivered relevant targeted advertising when they browse other sites in the Internet within the Google Display Network. We may also use the Google Analytics Advertising features to help us measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
Please further note that the DoubleClick Cookie also enables Google and other third-party vendors to serve targeted advertising (based on your prior visits to our website and/or other sites on the Internet). These ads may be shown on websites of Google and/or other publishers participating in the Google advertising network.
You can manage your preferences and opt-out of Google's interest-based ads in your Google Ads Setting . In this case, the unique cookie ID of the DoubleClick-Cookie is overwritten and can't be associated with a particular browser. Please note that a new DoubleClick-Cookie might be placed if you delete all cookies from your device and you may have to renew you opt-out settings.

2.7.1. YouTube
This Website also embeds videos provided by YouTube LLC (“YouTube”). Using YouTube’s offering requires a connection to be established to YouTube’s servers in the US. During this process, certain information is transmitted to YouTube. For all YouTube videos embedded in our website we have enabled the Privacy-enhanced mode offered by YouTube. This means that YouTube stores information about a visitor to our website only if he or she chooses to play an embedded video. LINKFLOW does not control the collection, storage and use of any of your information by YouTube and does not have access to any information collected. You should read YouTube’s Privacy Policy carefully before you use any YouTube features.
Further information about how your data are collected and used by YouTube and your rights in relation to this can be found in YouTube's privacy policy at www.youtube.com .

We embed videos from Vimeo on some pages. Vimeo is an Internet video portal that enables video publishers to set video clips and other users free of charge, which also provides free viewing, review and commenting on them. Vimeo allows you to publish all kinds of videos via the Internet portal. The operating company of Vimeo is Vimeo, Inc.
With each call-up to one of the individual pages on which a Vimeo video was integrated, the Internet browser is automatically prompted to download a display of the corresponding Vimeo component. Further information about Vimeo may be obtained under https://vimeo.com/about . When playing a video, Vimeo gains knowledge of what specific sub-page of our website was visited.
If you are logged in on Vimeo, Vimeo recognizes with each call-up to a sub-page that contains a Vimeo video, which specific sub-page of our Internet site was visited. This information is collected by Vimeo and assigned to your Vimeo account. This may be prevented by logging out of Vimeo before accessing pages that contain Vimeo videos.
Vimeo data protection provisions, available at https://vimeo.com/privacy , provide information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by Vimeo.

This website uses Google Maps ("Google Maps"), a map service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”) to display interactive maps.
