These web pages use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser. They are being stored by the utilised device when accessing these web pages. Cookies can not cause any harm to the device in use. They do not contain any virus or other malware. While cookies store information about the device used, it is not possible for our company to identify the visitor.

According to the basic settings of most internet browsers cookies are being accepted. It is possible to adapt the settings of the browser to warn you whenever cookies are placed or to accept cookies on a case-by-case basis or to exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general or to automatically delete cookies when the browser is shut down. Deactivating cookies may limit the functionality of the website.

Cookies that are required to facilitate electronic communication or to provide certain functions you might desire are stored on the basis of point (f) of Art. 6 (1) 1 DSGVO.  The operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies in order to provide its services without technical faults and in an optimal way.

5. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google Analytics

On this website, the controller has integrated the component of Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analysis service collects, inter alia, data about the website from which a person has come (the so-called referrer), which sub-pages were visited, or how often and for what duration a sub-page was viewed. Web analytics are mainly used for the optimization of a website and in order to carry out a cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising. Web analytics services may be used on the basis of point f) of Art. 6 (1) 1 DSGVO.

The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, United States.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the traffic on our website. Google uses the collected data and information, inter alia, to evaluate the use of our website and to provide online reports, which show the activities on our websites, and to provide other services concerning the use of our Internet site for us.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. With the setting of the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this website, the internet browser on the information technology system of the visitor will automatically submit data through the Google Analytics component. During the course of this technical procedure, the enterprise Google gains knowledge of personal information, such as the visitor’s IP address, which serves Google to understand the origin of visitors and clicks.

For the web analytics through Google Analytics the controller uses the application “_gat. _anonymizeIp”. By means of this application the IP address of the visitor’s Internet connection is abridged by Google and anonymized when accessing our websites from a Member State of the European Union or another Contracting State to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The cookie is used to store personal information, such as the access time, the location from which the access was made, and the frequency of visits of our website by the visitor. With each visit to our Internet site, such personal data, including the IP address of the Internet access used by the data subject, will be transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may pass the collected personal data through the technical procedure to third parties.

The visitor may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent Google Analytics from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by Google Analytics may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.

In addition, the visitor has the possibility of objecting to a collection of data that are generated by Google Analytics, which is related to the use of this website, as well as the processing of this data by Google and the chance to preclude any such. For this purpose, the data subject must download a browser add-on under the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?=de and install it. This browser add-on tells Google Analytics through a JavaScript, that any data and information about the visits of Internet pages may not be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-ons is considered an objection by Google. If the information technology system of the visitor is later deleted, formatted, or newly installed, the browser add-ons to disable Google Analytics must be reinstalled. If the browser add-on was uninstalled or is disabled, it is possible to execute the reinstallation or reactivation of the browser add-ons.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google may be retrieved under https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
