This page uses so-called web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When a page is opened, a connection to the library operator is triggered and your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly.
For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to Google’s servers. This gives Google knowledge that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and appealing presen­tation of our online offerings. This consti­tutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.
More infor­mation about Google Web Fonts can be found at https://​developers​.google​.com/​f​o​n​t​s​/​faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://​www​.google​.com/​p​o​l​i​c​i​e​s​/​p​r​i​v​a​cy/.
Our website uses Google Maps to display our locations and to provide direc­tions. This is a service provided by Google .
Through certi­fi­cation according to the EU-US Privacy Shield
Google guarantees that it will follow the EU’s data protection regula­tions when processing data in the United States.
To enable the display of certain fonts on our website, a connection to the Google server in the USA is estab­lished whenever our website is accessed.
The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in optimizing the functio­n­ality of our website.
By connecting to Google in this way, Google can determine from which website your request has been sent and to which IP address the direc­tions are trans­mitted.
If you do not agree to this processing, you have the option of preventing the instal­lation of cookies by making the appro­priate settings in your browser. Further details can be found in the section about cookies above.
