Facebook Pixel, Custom Audiences and Facebook Conversion
In our online activities, we use the so-called “Facebook pixel” due to our legitimate interests in the analysis, optimisation and economical operation of our online offers. “Facebook pixel” is a product of the social network Facebook, Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA or, if you are in the EU, Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Canal Grande, Canal Grande, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”).
Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thus offers a guarantee to comply with European levels of data protection (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
Using Facebook Pixel, it is possible for Facebook to identify visitors to our online offers as a target group for displaying advertisements (so-called Facebook ads). Therefore, we use Facebook Pixel to show Facebook ads to users who have shown interest in our online offers, or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interest in certain items or products based on their visited web pages) that we send to Facebook (so-called “custom audiences”). Using Facebook Pixel, we also want to ensure that our Facebook ads are in accordance with users’ potential interests. Using Facebook Pixel, we are able to monitor the impact of Facebook ads for statistics and market research, allowing us to see whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad (so-called “conversion”).
Data processing by Facebook is part of Facebook’s data use policy. General guidelines for displaying Facebook ads can be found in Facebook’s data use policy: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php.
