This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 (hereinafter: Google). This use includes the “Universal Analytics” operating mode. This makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus analyse a user’s activities across devices. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, which are text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of how you use the website. As a rule, the cookie-generated data regarding your use of this website will be forwarded to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services regarding website activity and Internet usage for the website operator. Our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is § 95 TKG or Article 6 Paragraph 1 (a) GDPR. Sessions and campaigns will end after a certain period of time. By default, sessions end after 30 minutes without activity and campaigns after six months. The time limit for campaigns can be up to a maximum of two years.
