Data Protection Provisions Concerning the Application and Use of Google AdSense
The Website has integrated Google AdSense. Google AdSense is an online service that allows advertisements to be displayed on partner third-party websites. Google AdSense uses an algorithm to select ads displayed on partner websites to match the content of these websites. Google AdSense enables interest-based targeting through the creation of individual user profiles.
The operating company for Google AdSense is: Alphabet Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The Google AdSense component serves to integrate advertising on the Website. Google AdSense places a cookie in the user’s computer system. The definition of cookies has been explained in earlier paragraphs. Through the cookie, Alphabet Inc. can analyze how the Website is used by the User.
Each time a page of this Website, operated by the Editor and integrating a Google AdSense component, is accessed, the User’s browser automatically transmits its data via the Google AdSense component for advertising purposes and to calculate commissions for Alphabet Inc. During this technical process, Alphabet Inc. learns personal data about the User, such as their IP address, which helps Alphabet Inc. understand visitor origin and clicks to create commission rules.
As stated earlier, the User can prevent the placement of cookies via the Website at any time by appropriately configuring their Internet browser settings to permanently refuse cookies. Such a configuration would also prevent Alphabet Inc. from placing a cookie in the User’s computer system. Additionally, cookies already placed by Alphabet Inc. can be deleted at any time through the browser or other software.
Google AdSense also uses invisible pixels. An invisible pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in Internet pages that enables log file recording and analysis for statistical evaluation. Through integrated invisible pixels, Alphabet Inc. can determine whether (and when) a website was visited by a User and which links were clicked. Invisible pixels serve, among other purposes, to analyze visitor flows on a website.
Through Google AdSense, personal data, including IP addresses (necessary for ad collection and accounting), are transmitted to Alphabet Inc. in the USA. These personal data are stored and processed in the USA. Alphabet Inc. may disclose personal data collected through this technical process to third parties.
