Cookies
Cookies are used when accessing our website. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer when you visit this website and help us to analyse how users use our website. After the browser session, most of the cookies we use are deleted (‘session cookies’). Some cookies are stored permanently and enable us to recognise your next visit to our website. This allows us to continuously improve our website. You can deactivate cookies completely or partially at any time in your browser settings.
Google Analytics
Our website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analysis service is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics uses ‘cookies’. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your end device and enable website usage to be analysed. Information generated by cookies about your use of our website is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. The server is usually located in the USA.
Google Analytics cookies are set on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and possibly also our advertising.
IP anonymisation
We use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymisation function. It ensures that Google truncates your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA) before transmitting it to the USA. There may be exceptional cases in which Google transmits the full IP address to a server in the USA and truncates it there. Google will use this information on our behalf to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

We delete your personal data when all process requirements have been met. If we are required by government regulations to retain personal data, it will be deleted immediately after the end of the retention period. You have the right to access your personal data that we are obliged to retain, to have incorrect personal data corrected and to request that it be restricted and deleted.
