Use of Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (hereinafter: Google). Google Analytics uses "cookies". These are text files placed on your computer to help analyse how you use the website. The information generated by a cookie about your use of the website is usually transmitted to and stored on Google servers in the United States. These web pages use IP anonymisation, and your IP address will therefore be truncated by Google prior to transmission if you access the website in a member state of the European Union or in another contracting state of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the United States prior to being truncated. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to analyse your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser through Google Analytics will not be linked to other Google data.
The purposes of data processing are the analysis of website use and the compilation of reports on website activity. Further related services will then be provided based on website and internet use. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of the website operator.
You may refuse the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on yourbrowser. Please note, however, that you may not be able to access the full website functionality if cookies are blocked. You may also prevent the collection of data that has been generated by cookies concerning your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: Browser add-on to disable Google Analytics.
DoubleClick by Google
(1) This website also uses the online marketing tool DoubleClick by Google. DoubleClick uses cookies to display user-relevant ads, improve campaign performance reports or prevent ads being shown to the same user more than once. Google uses a cookie ID to record what ads are shown in which browser to prevent ads from being shown more than once. DoubleClick additionally uses cookie IDs to record so-called conversions that relate to ad requests. This happens, for example, when a user sees a DoubleClick ad and later visits the advertiser's website to make a purchase using the same browser. According to Google, DoubleClick cookies do not contain any personal information.
(2) The marketing tools used ensure that your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore provide this information based on our current state of knowledge: The integration of DoubleClick ensures that Google is informed if you access the relevant part of our website or if you click on one of our advertisements. If you have registered for a Google service, Google can link the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or are not logged in, there is a possibility that the provider learns and stores your IP address.
(3) There are several ways for you to opt out of this tracking process: a) by activating the relevant settings in your browser software. In particular, disabling third-party cookies will ensure that you do not see ads from third-party providers; b) by disabling conversion tracking cookies. In order to do so, set your browser to block cookies from the domain "www.googleadservices.com" (https://www.google.de/settings/ads). Please note that this setting will be deleted if you delete your cookies; c) by disabling the interest-based ads of providers that are part of the "About Ads" self-regulation campaign. You may do so via the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices. Please note that this setting will be deleted if you delete your cookies; d) by permanently disabling these cookies in your Firefox, Internet Explorer or Google Chrome browser using the link http://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. Please note that you may not be able to access the full functionality of this website if you disable cookies.
(4) The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR.
