4.7.Advertising and Marketing
4.7.1.GOOGLE MARKETING PLATFORM
The online marketing tool Google Marketing Platform (“GMP”) uses cookies to display ads that are relevant to users, improve campaign performance reports, or prevent users from seeing the same ads multiple times. Google uses a cookie ID to track which ads appear in which browser and to ensure they're not shown more than once. Additionally, GMP may track 'conversions' with cookie IDs, which indicate whether a user saw a GMP ad and later visited the advertiser's website and made a purchase. Google asserts that GMP cookies do not contain personal information.
When you visit our website, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google's server. We do not control the extent and further use of the data collected by Google through this service. Google's integration of GMP notifies them that you have visited our website or clicked on an ad. If you are logged into a Google service, Google may associate your web activity with your Google account. Even if you are not registered with Google or not logged in, there is a possibility that Google may obtain and store your IP address.
The use of GMP may result in the transfer of personal data to Google servers located in the USA. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers as required by the GDPR.
The processing of your data through GMP is based on your consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
You can prevent tracking by GMP by configuring your browser settings or by disabling personalized advertising at https://myadcenter.google.com/personalizationoff?hl=de&sasb=true&ref=ad-settings.
4.7.2.GOOGLE ADS
We use the Google Ads service on our website, an online advertising service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Ads allows us to display advertisements in Google search results and the Google advertising network.
We also use the Google Ads conversion tracking feature, which allows us to determine how successful individual advertising measures are. This is done by analyzing the actions users take after clicking on one of our ads. However, we do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.
You have the right to object to this form of data processing. You can opt out of interest-based advertising by Google by visiting https://www.google.com/settings/ads and adjusting your settings accordingly.
For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing, as well as more information about your rights in this regard and setting options to protect your privacy, please visit Google's Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
4.7.3.LINKEDIN ADS
Our website utilizes LinkedIn Ads, an advertising service provided by LinkedIn Corporation. This service allows us to display targeted advertisements to users on the LinkedIn platform and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.
When you interact with our website, LinkedIn may use cookies or similar technologies to collect data about your browsing behavior, which is then used to deliver personalized advertising. This may include information such as your IP address, device information, and information about your interactions with our ads.
The processing of your data through LinkedIn Ads is based on your consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. To opt out of personalized advertising from LinkedIn, you can adjust your LinkedIn ad settings or deactivate the use of cookies on your device through your browser settings.
We also utilize LinkedIn conversion tracking to understand how you interact with our website after viewing a LinkedIn ad. This helps us evaluate the effectiveness of our ads and improve future advertising strategies. However, this tracking does not provide us with any personal data that can identify you.
Your data may be transferred to servers in the United States as part of LinkedIn's advertising services. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are implemented in accordance with the GDPR to ensure the level of data protection for your information.
For more information on how LinkedIn processes personal data and your rights regarding this processing, please refer to LinkedIn's Privacy Policy at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.
4.8.GOOGLE TAG MANAGER
For the management of website tags through an interface, we use the Google Tag Manager, a service provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). The Google Tag Manager itself (which implements the tags) does not record personal data as it operates on a cookie-less domain. However, the service triggers other tags which may collect personal data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If deactivation has been performed at the domain or cookie level, it will persist for all tracking tags that are implemented with Google Tag Manager.
The processing of personal data by the tags managed by Google Tag Manager is based on your consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
By using Google Tag Manager, certain data from your browser may be transmitted to Google, potentially including your IP address and information about your browser usage. This may result in the transfer of personal data to Google servers in the USA. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers as required by the GDPR.
For more information about how Google Tag Manager uses and processes your data, please visit Google's tag use policy at https://www.google.com/intl/en/tagmanager/use-policy.html.
Insofar as we outsource certain parts of our data processing (e.g. to IT service providers, mailing services), we contractually oblige such contractor(s) to process personal data only in accordance with the requirements of the applicable data protection laws and to ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject. We also use (IT) services from our Swiss parent company Stadtcasino Baden AG. We also engage (IT) service providers from the EU as well as from the US. With all non-EU providers, we enter into corresponding agreements using the revised standard contractual clauses issued by the European Commission and implement technical and organizational measures to ensure an appropriate level of protection. We prioritize selecting IT service providers with server locations in Switzerland or the EU whenever possible.
If a recipient is located in a country without adequate statutory data protection, we ensure compliance with applicable data protection law through contractual obligations (using European Commission's standard contractual clauses), unless they are subject to a legally recognized set of rules ensuring data protection or an exemption applies. Exemptions may include necessary disclosures for legal proceedings abroad, cases of overriding public interest, performance of a contract, your consent, or if you have made the data publicly available and have not objected to its processing.
Under their legal mandate, the SFGB and other authorities may request access to our stored data. We handle such requests in accordance with legal obligations and ensure that any disclosure of personal data complies with data protection principles.
Data subjects have rights under GDPR and FADP which include access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and the right to object. If you believe that our processing infringes on your data protection rights, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
For further clarification on our technical and organizational measures or if you wish to exercise your rights as a data subject, please contact us.
We process and store your personal data for the duration necessary to fulfill our contractual and legal obligations, to achieve the purposes for which the data was collected, and for as long as required by applicable laws and regulations. This includes retaining personal data for the period during which claims can be asserted against our company, as required by law, or as justified by our legitimate business interests.
In accordance to GDPR and FADP, we do not keep personal data longer than needed. The specific retention period for personal data depends on the nature of the obligation or the purpose of the processing. For example, we retain financial data for a minimum of ten years to comply with tax and accounting requirements.
Once the retention period has expired, or if personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was processed, we will take steps to delete or anonymize the data as part of our standard processes, unless further processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
To protect your personal data against unauthorized access and misuse, we take appropriate technical and organizational security measures, such as issuing directives, providing training, implementing IT and network security solutions, access monitoring and restrictions, encrypting data carriers and transmissions, and using pseudonymization or anonymization and controls.
Within the scope of the data protection law applicable to you, such as the GDPR, you have various rights concerning your personal data. These rights include
- The right of access to your personal data,
- The right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”),
- The right to restrict processing under certain conditions,
- The right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or the performance of a task in the public interest/exercise of official authority, direct marketing (including profiling), and processing for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics,
- The right to data portability, which allows you to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit those data to another controller.
Please note that we reserve the right to enforce the restrictions provided for by law, for example if we are obliged to store or process certain data, have an overriding interest in it (insofar as we may invoke it) or require it to assert claims.
Exercising your rights is generally free of charge, but you may be required to provide proof of your identity (e.g., a copy of your ID) to prevent unauthorized access to your personal data. To exercise your rights, please contact us using the details provided in Section 2.
Furthermore, if you believe that your data protection rights have been breached, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in your country.
Please be aware that exercising certain data protection rights, such as erasure or restriction of processing, may conflict with contractual agreements and could have consequences like early termination of contracts or cost implications. We will inform you about such potential consequences beforehand, where not already contractually agreed upon.
We reserve the right to amend this data protection information at any time in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations. Changes are published on our websites and come into effect when they are activated. The current version is valid as of February 2024.
If you have any questions about the processing or security of your personal data, you can directly contact the data protection officer in accordance with Section 2 above.
