(4) We also use cookies on our website to enable us to analyse the surfing behaviour of users. This serves the purpose of improving the quality of our website and its content. We use analysis cookies to learn how the website is used so that we can continuously improve our services.
On our website we use the open source software tool Matomo (formerly PIWIK) to analyse the surfing behaviour of our users. Whenever individual pages of our website are accessed, the following data are stored:
IP address, shortened to the two leading bytes (this anonymization takes sufficient account of users' interest in the protection of their personal data)
website from which the user accessed the web page (referrer)
subpages accessed from the web page accessed
frequency with which the web page is accessed
This software runs exclusively on the servers of our website. The user's personal data is stored here and nowhere else. The data is not passed on to third parties.
The use of analysis cookies can be prevented by setting the "Do Not Track" header in the browser or by using the opt-out function in Matomo. In the latter case, another cookie is placed on your system which signals our system not to store the user's data. If the user deletes the corresponding cookie from their own system in the meantime, they must set the opt-out cookie again.

You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your web browser. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it is possible that you will not be able to use all of the website functions to their full extent.
