Scalable central measurement method (SZM)

Some of our websites use the measurement method ("SZMnG") of INFOnline GmbH ( https://www.INFOnline.de ) to determine statistical parameters about the use of our offers. The aim of usage measurement is to statistically determine the number of visits to our website, the number of website visitors and their surfing behavior - on the basis of a uniform standard procedure - and thus to obtain values that are comparable across the market.

For all digital offers that are members of the information community for determining the distribution of advertising media eV (IVW - http://www.ivw.eu ) or participate in the studies of the online research working group eV (AGOF - http://www. agof.de ) participate, the usage statistics are regularly processed by AGOF and the Media Analysis Association (agma – http://www.agma-mmc.de ) to reach and published with the performance value “Unique User” as well as by IVW with the performance values "Page Impression" and "Visits". These ranges and statistics can be viewed on the respective websites.

Legal basis for processing

The measurement using the SZMnG measurement method by INFOnline GmbH is carried out with a legitimate interest in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

The purpose of processing personal data is to create statistics and create user categories. The statistics are used to understand and document the use of our offer. The user categories form the basis for an interest-based alignment of advertising material or advertising measures. To market this website, a usage measurement that ensures comparability with other market participants is essential. Our legitimate interest results from the economic usability of the findings resulting from the statistics and user categories and the market value of our website - also in direct comparison with third-party websites - which can be determined using the statistics.

In addition, we have a legitimate interest in making the pseudonymised data available to INFOnline, AGOF and IVW for market research (AGOF, agma) and statistical purposes (INFOnline, IVW). Furthermore, we have a legitimate interest in making the pseudonymised data available to INFOnline for the further development and provision of interest-based advertising material.

type of data

INFOnline GmbH collects the following data, which according to DS-GVO has a personal reference:

IP address: On the Internet, every device needs a unique address, the so-called IP address, to transmit data. The at least short-term storage of the IP address is technically necessary due to the way the internet works. The IP addresses are shortened by 1 byte before any processing and only processed further anonymously. There is no storage or further processing of the unabridged IP addresses.
A randomly generated client identifier: To recognize computer systems, range processing alternatively uses either a third-party cookie, a first-party cookie, a "local storage object" or a signature that is created from various automatically transmitted information from your browser . This identifier is unique to a browser as long as the cookie or local storage object is not deleted. A measurement of the data and subsequent assignment to the respective client identifier is therefore also possible if you call up other websites that also use the measurement method ("SZMnG") of INFOnline GmbH.

The validity of the cookie is limited to a maximum of 1 year.

use of the data

The measurement method used by INFOnline GmbH on this website determines usage data. This is done in order to collect the performance values of page impressions, visits and clients and to form other key figures from them (e.g. qualified clients). In addition, the measured data is used as follows:

A so-called geolocalization, i.e. the assignment of a website call to the location of the call, takes place exclusively on the basis of the anonymized IP address and only up to the geographical level of the federal states / regions. Under no circumstances can conclusions be drawn about the specific whereabouts of a user from the geographic information obtained in this way.
The usage data of a technical client (e.g. a browser on a device) is merged across websites and stored in a database. This information is used for the technical assessment of the socio-information age and gender and passed on to the AGOF service providers for further range processing. As part of the AGOF study, socio-characteristics are technically estimated on the basis of a random sample, which can be assigned to the following categories: age, gender, nationality, professional activity, marital status, general information on the household, household income, place of residence, internet use, online Interests, place of use, user type.

Storage duration of the data

The full IP address is not saved by INFOnline GmbH. The shortened IP address is stored for a maximum of 60 days. The usage data in connection with the unique identifier are stored for a maximum of 6 months.

transfer of the data

The IP address as well as the shortened IP address will not be passed on. For the preparation of the AGOF study, data with client identifiers are passed on to the following AGOF service providers:

Kantar Germany GmbH ( https://www.tns-infratest.com/ )
Ankordata GmbH & Co. KG ( http://www.ankordata.de/homepage/ )
Interrogare GmbH ( https://www.interrogare.de/ )

If you do not want to take part in the measurement, you can object under the following link: https://optout.ioam.de In order to guarantee exclusion from the measurement, it is technically necessary to set a cookie. If you delete the cookies in your browser, it is necessary to repeat the opt-out process under the link above.

Further information on data protection in the measurement process can be found on the website of INFOnline GmbH ( https://www.infonline.de ), which operates the measurement process, the data protection website of AGOF ( http://www.agof.de/datenschutz ) and the IVW data protection website ( http://www.ivw.eu ).
