Other cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and can allow cookies only in individual cases, accept cookies for certain cases or generally exclude them and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser.

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system in use
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request

These data cannot be assigned to specific persons. A merge of this data with other data sources does not take place. We reserve the right to check this data at a later date, if we become aware of specific indications for illegal use.

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on the user’s computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about users’ use of this website is generally transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, the IP address of Google users within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area will be shortened beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. IP anonymization is active on this website. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating the use of the website by users, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage for website operators.

The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google. Users may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on their browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. In addition, users can prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and related to their use of the website (including your IP address) and Google from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

IP-Anonymization

We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. As a result, your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area prior to transmission to the United States.

Google will use this information on behalf of the website operator to analyze your use of the website, prepare a website activities report and to provide other services related to the website and Internet use to the website operator.

Demographic characteristics with Google Analytics

This website uses the Google Analytics “demographics feature”. As a result, reports can be produced that contain statements on the age, gender and interests of the web page visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google and third-party visitor data. This data cannot be associated to a specific person. You can disable this feature at any time through the ad settings in your Google account, or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as outlined in the section “Objection to data collection”.

YouTube

Our site uses the provider YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA, represented by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA for the integration of videos. Normally, when you call up a page with embedded videos, your IP address is sent to YouTube and cookies are installed on your computer. However, we have integrated our YouTube videos with the extended data protection mode (in this case, YouTube still contacts Google’s DoubleClick service, but according to Google’s data protection declaration, personal data is not evaluated). As a result, YouTube no longer stores any information about the visitors unless they watch the video. If you click on the video, your IP address will be transmitted to YouTube and YouTube will know that you have viewed the video. If you are logged into YouTube, this information will also be assigned to your user account (you can prevent this by logging out of YouTube before viewing the video).

We have no knowledge of the possible collection and use of your data by YouTube and have no influence over it. For more information, see YouTube’s privacy policy at www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/. In addition, we refer to our general presentation in this data protection declaration for the general handling and deactivation of cookies.

An encrypted connection is indicated by the address line of the browser changing from “http: //” to “https: //” and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL encryption is enabled, the data you submit to us cannot be read by third parties.
