Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google LLC. The responsible service provider in the EU is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).

Scope of processing
Google Analytics uses cookies that enable an analysis of your use of our websites. The information collected using the cookies about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

We use the User ID function. Using the User ID, we can assign a unique, permanent ID to one or more sessions (and the activities within these sessions) and analyze user behavior across devices.

We use Google Signals. This allows Google Analytics to collect additional information about users who have activated personalized ads (interests and demographic data) and ads can be delivered to these users in cross-device remarketing campaigns.

We use the ‘anonymizeIP’ function (so-called IP masking): Due to the activation of IP anonymization on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. 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 your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

During your visit to the website, the following data is recorded, among others:

Your approximate location (region)
Your IP address (in abbreviated form)
Technical information about your browser and the devices you use (e.g. language settings, screen resolution)

The referrer URL (via which website/via which advertising medium you came to this website)

Purposes of processing
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your (pseudonymous [NOT IF USING USER ID]) use of the website and to compile reports on website activities. The reports provided by Google Analytics are used to analyze the performance of our website.

The recipient of the data is: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland as the processor. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google for this purpose. Google LLC, based in California, USA, and possibly US authorities can access the data stored by Google.

You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by
