Website analysis
On this website, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).
Google analyzes your use of this website on our behalf. For this purpose, we use cookies, among other things, which are described in detail in the cookie table above. The information collected by Google about your use of this website (e.g. the referring URL, pages visited on our site, the web browser you are using, your language preference, the operating system you are using or your screen resolution) is transferred to a Google server in the USA, stored there, analyzed and the result is made available to us in anonymized form. Your usage data will not be linked to your full IP address. We have activated the IP anonymization function offered by Google on this website, so that the last octet (type IPv4) or the last 80 bits (type IPv6) of your IP address are deleted.
You can revoke your consent to web analytics at any time by either downloading and installing the available browser plugin from Google or managing your consents in the table above, whereby an opt-out cookie is set. Both options prevent web analysis only as long as you use a browser on which you have installed the plugin or as long as you do not delete the opt-out cookie.
