Purpose of the Data Processing

Our website uses Google Analytics, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are saved on your computer and which allow an analysis of use of the websites you visit. As a rule, the information generated by cookies on the use of our website is transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Google Analytics IP Anonymization

Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. We have also concluded a contract with Google for data processing. Google processes this data on our behalf and thereby enables us to evaluate the use of the website by the users, to create reports on the website activities and to collect further information related to the use of the website and the internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.
