We may also collect information that Your browser sends whenever You visit our service or when You access the service by or through a mobile device.

Tracking Technologies, Cookies and Server Log Files  

We use Cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our service and store certain information. Tracking technologies used are beacons, tags, and scripts to collect and track information and to improve and analyze our service. Almost every website uses cookie technology. It is downloaded by Your Internet browser the first time You visit a website. The next time You visit this website using the same device, the cookie and the information stored in it is either sent back to the website that generated it (first party cookie) or sent to another website to which it belongs (third party cookie). In this way, the website recognizes that You have already been called up with this browser and in some cases varies the content displayed. Some cookies are extremely useful because they can improve the user experience when You revisit a website that You have visited several times before. For example, assuming You are using the same device and browser as before, cookies remember Your preferences, tell You how to use a page and tailor the offers displayed to Your personal interests and needs. Learn more about cookies: All About Cookies.

Absolutely necessary cookies, also called "strictly necessary", guarantee functions without which You would not be able to use this website as intended. These cookies are used by the Company and its Affiliates and are therefore so-called first party cookies. They are only stored on Your computer during the current browser session. Such cookies ensure, for example, the functionality of a change from http to https in case of a page change, and thus the compliance with increased security requirements for data transmission.

First Party Cookies, where there is consent required on this Website: Cookies, which according to a purely legal definition are not absolutely necessary in order to use the Website, nevertheless fulfil important tasks. Without these cookies, functions that enable comfortable surfing on our Website, such as saving a language selection You have made, are no longer available and would therefore have to be queried again on each page.

Third party cookies, where there is consent required on this Website: the Company and its Affiliates also integrate third party content into this Website. Examples are the integration of Facebook services. These third party services can theoretically set cookies while You are visiting our Website and thereby receive information, for example, that You have visited our Website. Please visit the websites of these third party providers for more information on their use of cookies. If You have decided not to give or withdraw Your consent to the use of cookies requiring Your consent, You will only be provided with those functions of our Website that we can guarantee to use without these cookies. Website areas that potentially offer the technical possibility to integrate third-party content and thus set third-party cookies are not available to You in this case. You will be informed of this by a corresponding note. Should You nevertheless wish to use the Website content in such a case, this is possible, but subject to Your declaration of consent to the use of cookies requiring Your consent. If You do not wish to allow cookies, You can set this in Your browser.

If You delete all Your cookies at a later date, You will need to go through the process again; the same applies if You visit this Website from other computers. If Your security settings are too high and the cookie is blocked, we will not be able to process Your request. You will be notified and should repeat the opt-out process with lower security settings.

Web Analysis 

This following list of web analysis tools is subject to change at any time. The Responsible Entity undertakes to require its Third Party Service Providers to provide sufficient guarantees as to the implementation of appropriate technical and organizational measures so that the processing complies with legal and regulatory requirements and guarantees the protection of Your rights. In addition, the Responsible Entity may share Personal Data with any Third Party Service Provider for Processing when a legal obligation to do so is in force.

Use of Google Analytics  

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics sets cook ies on the user's computer (for cookies, see above) and enables us to analyse Your use of our Website. The information generated by the cookies about Your use of our Website (including Your IP address) is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. As far as possible, the IP address of Google users within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area is shortened beforehand. The full IP address is only transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases.

This information is used by Google on our behalf to evaluate Your use of our Website, to compile reports on the activities of the Website and to provide other services associated with the use of our Website and the Internet. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. The IP address determined by Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Our Website also uses Google Optimize 360. It is an experience personalization and testing platform with native connections to our Google performance and advertising data. Google Optimize 360 allows us to create a custom segmented customer experiences and then test those experiences to increase engagement, interactions, and conversion goals.

Use of Google Ads  

On our Website we use Google Ads Conversion, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. With this service we can use advertising material (so-called Google Ads) on external websites to draw attention to our offers and services. In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are.

These advertising media are delivered by Google via so-called "Ad Servers". For this purpose, we use ad server cookies (for cookies, see above), through which certain parameters can be measured to measure success, such as the display of ads or clicks by users. If You reach our Website via a Google ad, Google Ads will store a cookie on Your device. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and are not intended to identify You personally. The unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions) and opt-out information (marking that the user no longer wishes to be contacted) are usually stored as analysis values for this cookie.

These cookies enable Google to recognize Your internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of an ad client's website and the cookie stored on their computer has not expired, Google and the client may recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to that page. A different cookie is associated with each ad client. As a result, cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of ad clients.

Social Plugins  

Our Website uses social plugins ("plugins") from various social networks. With the help of these plugins You can, for example, share content or recommend products to others. The plugins are deactivated by default on waterdrop.com and therefore do not send any data. If You activate these plugins, Your browser will establish a direct connection with the servers of the respective social network as soon as You call up a Website of our Internet presence. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from the social network to Your browser, which integrates it into the Website. Of course, the plugins can be deactivated again with one click. By integrating the plugins, the social network receives the information that You have called up the corresponding page of our Website. If You are logged in to the social network, it can assign the visit to Your account. If You interact with the plugins, for example, by clicking the Facebook "Like" button or making a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from Your browser to the social network and stored there. The purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by social networks as well as Your rights and setting options for the protection of Your privacy can be found in the data protection notices of the respective networks or websites. You will find the links below.

If You do not want social networks to collect data about You via our Website, You must log out of these networks before You visit our Website. On our Website we use the following plugins:

Facebook, Google+, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Tiktok

Legal basis for the use of the Social Plugins is Your consent. Even if You are not logged in to the social networks, data can be sent to the networks from websites with active social plugins. An active plugin sets a cookie with an identifier each time You visit the Website. Since Your browser sends this cookie every time You connect to a network server without being asked, the network could in principle use it to create a profile of which websites the user belonging to the identifier has visited. And it would then also be possible to assign this identifier to a person again later - for example, when logging in to the social network later.

Facebook 

Our pages integrate plug-ins from the social network Facebook, provider Facebook Inc. 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA, and Facebook Ireland Ltd. 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. You can recognize the Facebook plug-ins by the Facebook logo or the "Like Button" ("Like") on our site. An overview of the Facebook plug-ins can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/

When You visit our pages, the plug-in establishes a direct connection between Your browser and the Facebook server. Facebook thereby receives the information that You have visited our site with Your IP address. If You click on the Facebook "Like-Button" while You are logged in to Your Facebook account, You can link the contents of our Pages on Your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate Your visit to our Pages with Your user account.

In addition, we maintain an online presence on Facebook, the so-called fan page, in order to be able to communicate with the customers, interested parties and users active there and to inform them about our services.

Twitter 

Our Website uses so-called social plugins ("Plugins") of the microblogging service Twitter, which is operated by Twitter Inc, 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA ("Twitter"). The plugins are marked with a Twitter logo, for example in the form of a blue "Twitter bird". If You call up a page of our Website that contains such a plugin, Your browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of Twitter.

The content of the plugin is transmitted by Twitter directly to Your browser and integrated into the page. Through the integration, Twitter receives the information that Your browser has called up the corresponding page of our Website, even if You do not have a profile on Twitter or are not currently logged in to Twitter. This information (including Your IP address) is transmitted by Your browser directly to a Twitter server in the USA and stored there. If You are logged in to Twitter, Twitter can immediately assign Your visit to our Website to Your Twitter account. If You interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the "Twitter" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Twitter server and stored there. The information is also published on Your Twitter account and displayed to Your contacts. For the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by Twitter as well as Your rights and settings options for the protection of Your privacy, please refer to the Twitter privacy policy: https://twitter.com/privacy

If You do not want Twitter to associate the data collected via our Website directly with Your Twitter account, You must log out of Twitter before visiting our Website. You can also completely prevent the Twitter plugins from loading by using add-ons for Your browser.

Google+ 

We use plug-ins from the social network Google+, which is operated by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). An overview of Google's plugins and their appearance can be found here: developers.google.com/+/web/

Pinterest 

We use plugins from the social network Pinterest, which is operated by Pinterest Inc., 635 High Street, Palo Alto, CA, USA ("Pinterest"). The link to Pinterest's privacy policy can be found here: Pinterest's privacy policy: about.pinterest.com/privacy/

Instagram 

We use plugins from the Instagram social network, which is operated by Instagram, LLC Instagram Inc, 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA ("Instagram"). The link to Instagram's privacy policy can be found here: Instagram's Privacy Policy: instagram.com/about/legal/privacy/#

TikTok

We use plugins from the TikTok social network, which is operated by TikTok Inc., 5800 Bristol Parkway, Suite 100, Culver City, CA 90230, USA (“TikTok”). The link to TikTok's privacy policy can be found here: TikTok's Privacy Policy https://www.tiktok.com/legal/page/us/privacy-policy/en

If You do not want social networks to collect information about You through active plugins, You can either simply disable the social plugins with a single click on our Websites or select the "Block third-party cookies" function in Your browser settings. Then the browser will not send cookies to the server for embedded content from other providers. With this setting, however, other cross-site functions besides the plugins may no longer work.
