Log Files

ligenius-solutions.com follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. All hosting companies do this and a part of hosting services’ analytics. The information collected by log files include internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of the information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.

Cookies

Like any other website, ligenius-solutions.com uses ‘cookies’. Cookies are tiny text files stored on your computer. Generally, cookies are stored for the duration of the current session, i.e. until you close your browser, but in some cases they are stored longer than this.

We use cookies to store information including visitors’ preferences, and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited. The information is used to optimize the users’ experience by customizing our web page content based on visitors’ browser type and/or other information.

Google Analytics and Google Optimize:

LiGenius Solutions uses Google Analytics and Google Optimize web analytics services provided by Google. Both Google Analytics and Google Optimize are web analytics services offered by Google Ireland Ltd.

Google Analytics and Google Optimize store cookies which enable an analysis of the surfing patterns of website visitors . We only use these Google Services with activated IP anonymization. This means that the IP address of the users will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. Google Analytics uses this information to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activity for website operators and to report other website activity and internet-related services. Google Optimize will use this information on our behalf to improve the attractiveness, content and functionality of our website by enabling us to offer new features and content to a percentage of our users and to statistically evaluate changes in usage.

If required by law, Google will pass along this information to third parties. Google will also pass along data to third parties for processing, provided this processing is done on behalf of Google. Under no circumstances shall Google connect your IP address with any other data held by Google. If you wish, you can adjust your browser settings so as to refuse cookies. Please bear in mind, however, that if you refuse all cookies, you will not necessarily have access to all functions of this website. By using this site, you consent to the processing of your data by Google as described above, for the aforementioned purpose.

You can prevent data collection via Google Analytics and/or Google Optimize by clicking this link:

Opt-Out-Link

An “Opt-out Cookie” shall then be applied to your website which shall prevent any future collection of your data when visiting this website. 

Additional information on how Google handles personal data in its advertising network can be found here: Advertising and Privacy.

We use cookies to store information including visitors’ preferences, and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited. The information is used to optimize the users’ experience by customizing our web page content based on visitors’ browser type and/or other information.

Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick

LiGenius Solutions also uses the cross-device capabilities of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick from the provider Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

This feature allows the Google Analytics remarketing ad groups described above, to be linked to the cross-device features of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. In this way, interest-based, personalized advertising messages that have been adapted to the particular user based on their previous usage and browsing behavior on one terminal (e.g., cell phone) may also be displayed on another user’s terminal (e.g., tablet or PC).

Once the user has given their consent, Google links the web and app browsing history to the corresponding Google account for this purpose. In this way, the same personalized advertising messages can be displayed on each device on which the user logs on with his Google Account. To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated IDs of users who are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create audiences for cross-device ad promotion. The site visitor can permanently object to cross-device remarketing / targeting by disabling personalized ads in their Google Account: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/. If the site visitor wishes to object to Google’s general tracking process, the conversion tracking cookies can be disabled by setting the browser to block cookies from the domain www.googleadservices.com: https://www.google.de/settings/ads.

The aggregation of the collected data in the Google account of the site visitor takes place exclusively on the basis of his consent, which he can give or revoke on Google (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). For data collection operations that are not merged into the user’s Google Account (for example, because they do not have a Google Account or have objected to the merge), the collection of data is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The legitimate interest arises from the fact that LiGenius Solutions has an interest in the anonymous analysis of the website visitors for advertising purposes.
