Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The operating company of Google AdWords services is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. If you reached our website via an advertisement placed by Google, a cookie is set on your computer by Google AdWords. The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an advertisement placed by Google.
If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the advertisement and was redirected to that page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their advertisement and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that personally identifies users.

Our company does not receive any information from Google that could be used to identify the data subject.
Storage Duration:
These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification.
