    Function: Twitter Ads allows advertisers to collect data from users who visit their website. Cookies and code are used to connect the website to another third-party platform such as Twitter. A non-reversible and non-personal hash value is generated from your usage data and transmitted to Twitter for analysis and marketing purposes.

User behaviour, such as websites visited, content accessed, time of visit, etc., as well as device-related data, such as applications and operating systems used, are recorded. With “cross-device personalization”, Twitter also tries to link all devices of a user. Since the data is stored and processed by Twitter, a connection to the respective user profile on twitter.com is also possible. In the course of processing, the data may be transmitted to a Twitter Inc. server in the USA. Twitter Inc. is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield and thus ensures an adequate level of protection of your data in accordance with European data protection law. You can download the certificate here: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TORzAAO&status=Active. Anonymized data will be deleted within 6 months. Data that can possibly identify a specific user on Twitter will be deleted within 90 days. Further information on the duration of the storage can be obtained from the provider or at https://legal.twitter.com/ads-terms/international.html. You can object to Twitter’s data collection by adjusting the settings in your Twitter account or at https://twitter.com/personalization. If you would like to opt out of interest-based advertising from certain third-party advertisers, you can do so at https://optout.aboutads.info and https://optout.networkadvertising.org.
