This tool detects movements on the observed web pages in so-called heatmaps. This allows us to anonymously recognize where visitors click and how far they scroll. This allows us to make our website better and more customer-friendly. Protecting your personal information is very important to us when using this tool. All data is collected without us being able to assign it to specific users. We can only understand how the mouse moves, where it was clicked, and how far scrolled. Further, the screen size of the device, the device type, information about the browser, the country from which it was accessed, and the preferred language are recorded. If personal data is displayed on a website, Hotjar automatically fills it. They are therefore incomprehensible to us. Through a "Do Not Track header", the use of the tool hotjar can be prevented. Then no data will be collected about the visit to our website. For this, the browser must be set accordingly.
