For this purpose, the Pinterest conversion tag has been implemented on the website. This tag establishes a direct connection to the Pinterest servers when you visit the website. This transmits to the Pinterest server which of our pages you have visited. Pinterest assigns this information to your personal Pinterest user account if you are logged into the social network. When you visit Pinterest, you will then be shown personalized, interest-based Pinterest ads.
If you access our website via a pin on the Pinterest social network, a cookie for conversion tracking will be stored on your computer. These cookies are valid for a limited time, do not contain any personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Pinterest and we can recognize that you clicked on the pin and were redirected to this page. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics and thus optimize our website. The following information may be processed, among others: total number of users who clicked on one of our pins and were redirected to our website, subpages visited on our website (e.g. category or product pages), search queries on our website, your shopping cart contents, completed transactions.
Your data may be transferred to the USA. For the USA, there is an adequacy decision of the EU Commission, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). Pinterest is not certified according to the TADPF. The data transfer takes place on the basis of standard contractual clauses as appropriate guarantees for the protection of personal data, which can be viewed
