Google Analytics This Site uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics makes use of so-called "cookies" or text files stored on a user’s computer that allow an analysis of the visitor’s website usage. In principle, this information – as displayed by the cookie – is transferred and stored on the Google server in the U.S. The company activated a so-called IP anonymization on this website, which means that Google shortens the IP addresses from within EU Member States or from other EEA treaty states before they are exported to the U.S. server. Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address may be transferred to the U.S. Google server before it is shortened in the U.S. As instructed by this Site's operator, Google will use the information for the purpose of analyzing use of the Company’s Site, to compose reports on Site activities and to provide further services to the website's operator related to the use of the website and the Internet. The IP address transferred to users by the browser and that is shortened before storing for the purposes of Google Analytics will not be added to other Google data. Users can prevent the storage of the cookies through the applicable browser settings; however, we remind you that, in certain instances, users may not be able to use all functions of this Site to the fullest extent possible. More Internet Technologies This Site collects and stores information related to the visitor’s s' surfing conduct in an anonymized way, through the use of various Internet technologies. This data is in no way used to personally identify the visitor of a webpage. The data stored is only used to improve this Site. Therefore, all IP addresses are shortened and thus processed in an anonymous way. It is not used in a different way or disclosed to third parties. Users can generally revoke their consent for the collection, processing and the use of data by analytics or retargeting technologies commissioned by this website, with altering consequences for the future. It will save a cookie opt-out to the user’s device. This revocation will remain effective as long as the user does not erase this cookie. 4.3 Clickstream Data While browsing the Internet, a trail of electronic information is left at each website visited. This information, which is sometimes called "clickstream" data, can be collected and stored by a website's server. Clickstream data can tell companies the address of the website from which the user linked to the Company’s Site, and in some instances, the user’s email address. We may use clickstream data to determine how much time visitors spend on each page of the Site and how users navigate the Site. This information will only be used to improve the Site. 5.
