Web analysis

Our website uses functions provided by the Google Analytics web analysis services, Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). For this purpose, cookies are installed to analyse use of the website. The information generated by cookies is transferred to the server of the provider where it is stored.

You can stop cookies being installed by setting your browser so that no cookies are stored.

We have concluded a corresponding contract data processing agreement with the provider.

A record is kept of your IP address which is anonymised as soon as technically feasible (by deleting the last eight bits) before it is sent to the Google server so that your physical location can only be identified approximately.

The relationship with the web analytics provider is managed in compliance with the EU-US Privacy Shield arrangement.

Data processing is carried out in accordance with the legal requirements set out in Section 96 (3) of the Telecommunications Act and in Article 6 (1) (a) (consent) and/or (legitimate interest) of the GDPR.

Our aim is to improve our website and the services we offer in accordance with the GDPR (legitimate interest). Since the privacy of our users is a matter of great importance for us, user data is anonymised before it is forwarded.

The user data is kept for a period of 26 months.
