(Re-)Marketing / data sharing with third parties

We use cookies and similar technologies to evaluate the reach of our advertising campaigns and how users who have become aware of our website through our advertising campaigns use our services. We also use cookies and similar technologies to record which users use our website in order to form groups (so-called audiences) and to address these audiences on other online platforms with personalised advertising.

 

We also transfer this information to third parties who may also process it for their own purposes.

 

If you have consented to this, we will record whether you have reached us via one of our advertising campaigns and how you then interact with our website. For example, we can record which share of users who have seen an ad actually use content from our website. This enables us to better plan and control our advertising budget.

 

 

In addition, we group the users of our website in so-called audiences. Audiences are user groups that are put together by us according to certain criteria (e.g. all users who have accessed a category of recipes). If the users of an audience are also users of our marketing partners, we can individually address these users  with advertisements (re-marketing) through our marketing partner’s platform.. Information that our marketing partner has about his users in one of our audiences can also be used by him to suggest similar user groups to us for advertising.

 

To this end, we inform our marketing partners that you have visited our website and whether you have visited pages defined by us or have carried out other actions (e.g. registered an account). Our marketing partners may also use this information for their own purposes, for example to further personalise your profile on their own platform.
