Affiliate Programs and Affiliate Links

In our online offer, we integrate so-called affiliate links or other references (which may include e.B. search masks, widgets or discount codes) to the offers and services of third-party providers (collectively referred to as "affiliate links").

In order to be able to track whether the users have taken advantage of the offers of an affiliate link we use, it is necessary that the respective third parties know that the users have followed an affiliate link used within our online offer. The assignment of the affiliate links to the respective business transactions or to other actions (e.B. purchases) serves the sole purpose of the commission settlement and will be cancelled as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose.

For the purposes of the aforementioned assignment of the affiliate links, the affiliate links may be supplemented by certain values that are part of the link or can otherwise be stored, e..B. in a cookie. The values may include, in particular, the initial website (referrer), the time, an online identifier of the operators of the website on which the affiliate link was located, an online identifier of the respective offer, the type of link used, the type of offer and an online identifier of the user.
