Marketing and Re-Targeting
Personalized Information
Our websites make use of so-called re-targeting technologies. We use these technologies to make our internet offers more interesting for you. This technique allows internet users who have already shown an interest in our services to be provided with tailored information on the websites of our partners and other third parties. The use of this marketing approach by our partners is undertaken on the basis of a cookie technology and an analysis of previous user behavior.

Through LinkedIn's conversion tracking and website-demographic features, Schunk can understand what happens after a LinkedIn user clicks on our ad by using analytic methods and systems provided by LinkedIn that allow us to send data to LinkedIn and its affiliates about actions that people take on our websites or mobile applications ("Event Data"). We use this service to provide you with targeted information regarding services and events of Schunk. LinkedIn and Schunk both adhere to the relevant EU data-protection law.

Schunk does not provide LinkedIn with personally identifiable data from our central operational IT systems (such as CRM or CSV data).
