Google records information about your +1 activity to improve Google services for you and others.

Where we send your data
Social Plugins
Social media plugins are used on our websites. These plugins may send information, which may include personal data, to the service provider and may be used by them. We prevent the unconscious and unwanted collection and transfer of data to the service provider by means of a 2-click solution. To activate a desired social plugin, it must first be activated by clicking on the corresponding button. Only when the plugin is activated will the collection of information and its transfer to the service provider be triggered. We do not collect any personal data ourselves via the social plugins or through their use.
We have no influence on what data an activated plugin collects and how it is used by the provider. Currently, it must be assumed that a direct connection to the provider’s services is established and that at least the IP address and device-related information are collected and used. It is also possible that the service providers may attempt to store cookies on the computer being used. Please refer to the privacy policy of the respective service provider to find out what specific data is collected and how it is used. If you are logged into Facebook at the same time, Facebook can identify you as a visitor to a particular page.
Google AdWords
Our website uses Google conversion tracking. The operator of Google AdWords services is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. If you have reached our website via an advertisement placed by Google, Google AdWords will place a cookie on your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google.
If the user visits certain pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognise that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.
