We use Google Analytics on our website, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and only shortened there. We have also concluded an agreement with Google for order processing. Google processes these data on our behalf and thereby enables us to evaluate the use of the website by the users, to create reports on the website activities and to collect further information connected with the use of the website and the internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data.
By adjusting your browser software accordingly, you can prevent the storage of cookies. However, we point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of our website as a whole.

In order to display our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries such as Google Web Fonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) on our website. Google Web fonts are cached in your browser to avoid multiple loading. If your browser does not support Google Web Fonts or prevents access, content will be displayed in a default font. Calling up script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library operator. It is theoretically possible – although it is currently unclear whether and for what purposes – that the operators of such libraries collect data. The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
