Inclusion of third-party services and content We include third-party content and services in our online provision on the basis of our justified interests (i.e. interests in the analysis, optimisation and commercial operation of our online provision in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR), in order to include their content and services, such as maps and fonts (hereafter summarised as “content”). This always requires that the third-party-providers of this content have access to the users’ IP addresses, because without the IP addresses they would not be able to send the content to the users’ browsers. So the IP address is necessary in order to display this content. We take care only to use content whose corresponding providers use the IP address solely for the delivery of content. Furthermore, third-party providers can use so-called pixel-tags (invisible graphics, also called “web beacons”) for statistical marketing purposes. “Pixel-tags” can be used to collect information such as visitor traffic to the pages of a particular website. Such pseudonymous information can also be stored in cookies on users’ devices, containing technical information such as browser and operating system, referring websites, time of visit and other data about use of our online provision, which can also be linked to such information from other sources.   The following description offers an overview of third-party providers and their content, along with links to their data protection declarations, which contain further information about the processing of data and possibilities to object (so-called “opt-out”) mentioned to some extent already:   1.
