User and user-related information, such as IP address, location, time or frequency of visiting our website, are transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, we use Google Analytics with the so-called anonymization function. With this feature, Google already truncates the IP address within the EU / EEA.

The data collected in this way will again be used by Google to provide us with an evaluation of the visit to our website as well as about the usage activities there. This data may also be used to provide other services related to the use of our website and the use of the Internet.

Google provides further data protection information for you, for example, instructions on how to prevent the use of data.

In addition, Google offers below

a so-called deactivation add-on together with further information. This add-on can be installed with the common Internet browsers and offers you further control over the data that Google collects when you visit our website. The add-on informs the JavaScript (ga.js) of Google Analytics that information for visiting our website should not be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, this does not prevent information from being passed to us or other web analytics services. Of course, this privacy policy contains information on whether and which other web analysis services we use.

Alternatively, the future analysis of your site visit by Google Analytics can be disabled by clicking on the link below. By clicking on the link a so-called “opt-out cookie” is set, which means that the analysis of your page visit on our site will be prevented in the future:

If you click on an ad served by Google, the conversion tracking we use will store a cookie on your device. These so-called conversion cookies lose their validity after 30 days and do not contain your personal identification.
