Our Website uses Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a service from Google LLC. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043. USA; ‘Google’) employing cookies which are saved on your computer, allowing Google to analyze your use of the Site. The information generated by the cookie is transferred to a Google server generally located in the USA and stored there. On our Website, IP anonymization is activated, so that the IP address of Google users within member states of the European Union or other contracting parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area is effectively anonymized before being transferred, thus eliminating any possibility of personally identifying the user in question. In exceptional cases only the full IP address is transferred to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. Google uses this information on our behalf in order to analyze the use of the Website, to compile reports on the Website activities, and to provide other services relating to use of the Site and Internet use for the Website operator. The IP address transferred from your browser through Google Analytics is not merged with other data by Google for profiling purposes. Further information on Google’s use of data can be here.
You can prevent the collection and subsequent transfer of any data (including the anonymized IP address) generated by the Google Analytics cookie relating to use of the Website by Google as well as the processing of this data altogether by Google by either downloading and installing the Browser Plugin available here. Alternatively, you can click here https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/user-opt-out.
We use the Google Maps, a component of Google. Google sets a cookie in order to process the user configuration and data when the page with the integrated ‘Google Maps’ component is displayed. As a general rule, this cookie is not deleted by closing the browser, but rather expires after a certain time, as long as it is not previously manually deleted by you. If you do not agree with this processing of your data, you may choose to deactivate the Google Maps service and thereby prevent the transfer of data to Google. To do this, you must deactivate the Java Script function in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use “Google Maps” or at least only to a limited extent.
