4. Web Analytics and Tracking

a) Google Analytics

In order to design our website in line with requirements and to continuously optimize it, we create reports on website activities with the help of Google Analytics. In this context, pseudonymized usage profiles are created and small text files that are stored on your computer ("cookies", for the use of cookies see section VIII. 1) are used. The information generated by the cookies on the use of this website is transmitted to the servers of the providers of these services, stored there and processed for us. We may process the following information as a result:

  • the time spent on the website or sub-page
  • the sub-page on which the website is left
  • the country, region or city from which the website is accessed

The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website and internet usage for the purposes of market research and to tailor this website to your needs.

The provider of Google Analytics is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Before the data is transmitted to the provider, the IP address is shortened by activating IP anonymization ("anonymize IP") on this website within the Member States of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The anonymized IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with any other data held by Google. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. In these cases, we ensure through contractual guarantees that Google maintains a sufficient level of data protection. According to Google, in no case will the IP address be associated with other data relating to the user.

This allows us to measure and evaluate the use of the website (not on a personal basis). Permanent cookies set by the service provider are also used for this purpose (for the use of cookies, see section VIII). The legal basis for the processing is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR.

5. Social-Media Plugins

We use plug-ins from social networks on our website. This is apparent to you in each case (typically via corresponding icons). We have configured these elements so that they are deactivated by default. Only by activating them by clicking on them and thus giving your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR) to the transmission of data, a direct connection to the servers of the respective social network is established. The content of the respective plugin is then transmitted directly to your browser by the associated provider and integrated into the page.

When you click on the relevant social network icons, you will be linked to the relevant social network to perform the selected functionality, e.g. to share a content on Facebook or tweet on Twitter. To do this, however, you must log in to your user account or already be logged in. If you select one of the provided functionalities and click on the icon of the relevant social network, a direct connection is established between your browser and the server of the relevant social network. With that the network will be provided with the information that you have visited our website with your IP address and called up the link. If you call up a link to a social network while you are logged into your account with the social network concerned, the content of our websites may be linked to your profile with the social network. This means that the social network can assign your visit to our websites directly to your user account. If you wish to prevent this, you should log out before clicking on the corresponding links. An assignment will take place in any case if you log in to the relevant network after clicking on the link.

We provide you with plugins from the following social networks:

We offer you the option of sharing content on social media networks via the AddToAny service (AddToAny LLC, San Francisco, CA, USA). Data is only processed when these services are accessed by you. Since you can only use these services if you have a user account there and have to log in with your access data, the responsibility from this point on is no longer with us, because the creation of user accounts, i.e. membership of a social media network, requires your consent. According to their privacy policy, AddToAny does not store any personal data. We also do not receive any data from AddToAny or data resulting from the use of the share buttons. AddToAny provides an opt-out option for a large number of advertising networks. You can opt-out directly via this link: https://optout.networkadvertising.org

The legal basis for the aforementioned data processing lies in our legitimate interest in the economic operation of our online offer (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

You can find more information on the collection and use of your data by AddToAny in their privacy policy: https://www.addtoany.com/privacy
