Tracking-based analyses and other tools

Where applicable, Google will also transmit this information to third parties, insofar as this is prescribed by law, or if third parties process these data on its behalf. Google will not associate the IP address with any other data that it holds. Customers may prevent the installation of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on their browsers; however, please note that if this is done, it may not be possible to use all the functions of this website in their full capacity.

Cookies

Some be2 services require so-called cookies to be set. be2 therefore informs customers explicitly of the use of cookies.

Cookies are text snippets that are stored either for a limited time (so-called “session cookies”) in a computer’s temporary memory, or on a computer’s hard disk (so-called “persistent cookies”). Cookies contain, for example, information on users’ previous access to the appropriate server, information on which offers were requested or which methods of payment were agreed during previous transactions. The main purposes of cookies is, by storing personal settings on websites, to prepare offers customised to customers on the one hand and, on the other, to design the use of services to be as comfortable as possible, because customers can visit these websites in this way without having to make all the settings every time. In contrast, cookies are not used to carry out programs independently or even to load viruses onto customers’ computers.

be2 uses sessions cookies, partner and affiliate cookies and persistent cookies.

Sessions cookies:

be2 uses so-called “sessions cookies”. These are not stored on the computer’s hard disk and are deleted when the browser is closed. Sessions cookies are used in particular for login authentication during the registration procedure.

Partner and affiliate cookies:

In addition to the above, be2 uses so-called “partner cookies” or “affiliate cookies”. These are understood as cookies that are set if a customer accesses the service of be2 through the advertising space of a cooperation partner. These cookies are used for settlements with cooperation partners and do not contain any personal data of customers. They are deleted either when the customer registers on the be2 website or automatically on expiry of the relevant cookie lifetime.

Persistent cookies:

be2 uses so-called “persistent cookies” in order to store the personal usage settings that a customer enters when using be2 services. On the one hand, this ensures that customers find their personal settings again when they return to be2 websites and, on the other, it serves the automatic differentiation of the customer’s membership status, whether they have already seen specific information and advertising campaigns, or have taken part in a survey. Use of persistent cookies is intended to personalise and improve be2 services.

Partner websites:

If the be2 service is integrated in the website of a cooperation partner, this cooperation partner may also use cookies. be2 has no control over this and is not responsible for the practices of these cooperation partners. For their own security therefore, be2 recommends its customers to obtain information on the data protection provisions of the respective partner companies. The same applies if customers request the website of a cooperation partner from be2 website or apps.

Most Internet browsers are set to accept cookies by default. However, customers have the right and the possibility to set their computers to reject cookies, or at least for the customer to be asked to confirm beforehand. If the customer decides to reject or switch cookies off, the consequence may be a reduction in the scope of the be2 service and that not all offers will function without fault.
