Use of Cookies
We use cookies on our website. Cookies contain a so-called cookie ID, a unique identifier of the cookie that assigns websites and servers to a specific internet browser. A specific internet browser can be recognized and identified through this unique cookie ID.
Such information about the use of this website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to servers abroad and stored there, for instance in the case of Google Analytics. By using our website, you consent to the transmission of this data.
Cookies are stored on the user’s computer and transmitted to our website from there. Therefore, you as the user also have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your internet browser, you can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies. Already stored cookies can be deleted at any time, which can also occur automatically. If cookies are disabled for our website, not all functions may be fully usable. The use of interactive features is only possible with cookies.
Google Analytics
Our website uses features of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics also uses cookies. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google, according to Google’s specifications. The information generated by cookies about your use of our website is generally transmitted to and stored on a server of Google in the USA.
Our website has activated the IP anonymization function. Thus, your IP address is shortened by Google before transmission to the USA. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a server of Google in the USA and shortened there.
Our website uses the “demographic features” function of Google Analytics. This allows reports to be generated that provide information about the age, gender, and interests of website visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising by Google and from visitor data from third parties. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can deactivate this feature at any time via the ad settings in your Google account or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics. To disable Google Analytics, Google provides a browser add-on at http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
Social Media
Our website may include buttons (“social media plugins”) that connect to the servers of social networks (Facebook, Instagram, etc.). By clicking on one of these buttons, certain data such as IP address, website visit, among others, is transmitted to the respective operator of the social network. This data transmission occurs without our involvement. The privacy policies and terms of use of the respective social network apply.
