Information on Data Processing in Connection with Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the data controller for data processing on this website is located outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, then Google Analytics data processing is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are hereinafter referred to as "Google."

Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies," which are text files stored on the visitor's computer and enable an analysis of the use of the website by the visitor. The information generated by the cookie about the use of this website by the visitor (including the truncated IP address) is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored there.

Google Analytics is exclusively used on this website with the extension "_anonymizeIp()". This extension ensures anonymization of the IP address by truncation and prevents direct personal reference. Through the extension, the IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address transmitted by the corresponding browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

On behalf of the website operator, Google will use the information collected to evaluate the use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website usage and internet usage to the website operator (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). The legitimate interest in data processing lies in the optimization of this website, the analysis of the use of the website, and the adaptation of content. User interests are sufficiently safeguarded by pseudonymization.

Google LLC. is certified under the so-called Privacy Shield (list entry here) and ensures an adequate level of data protection on this basis. The data sent and linked with cookies, user IDs (e.g., User-ID), or advertising IDs will be automatically deleted after 50 months. Data whose retention period has been reached is automatically deleted once a month.

The collection by Google Analytics can be prevented by adjusting the cookie settings for this website by the visitor. The collection and storage of the IP address and data generated by cookies can also be objected to at any time with effect for the future. The corresponding browser plugin can be downloaded and installed via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

The visitor to the website can prevent the collection by Google Analytics on this website by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set that prevents the future collection of data when visiting this website.

Further information on data use by Google, settings, and objection options can be found in Google's privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and in the settings for displaying advertisements by Google (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).

reCAPTCHA

To protect your inquiries via internet form, we use the reCAPTCHA service provided by Google LLC (Google). The query serves to distinguish whether the input is made by a human or is being misused by automated, machine processing. The query includes the transmission of the IP address and, if necessary, further data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service. For this purpose, your input is transmitted to Google and used there. However, your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before this. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of reCAPTCHA will not be merged with other data from Google. For this data, the separate privacy policies of the company Google apply. Further information on Google's privacy policies can be found at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en
