Use of the tracking tool Google Analytics

Type and purpose of processing

If you have given your consent, Google Analytics 4 is used on this website, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland).

Google Analytics uses cookies that enable analysis of your use of the website. The collected information is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

In Google Analytics, automatic anonymization of IP addresses is enabled by default. Due to IP anonymization on this website, your IP address is shortened by Google within EU or EEA member states. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. According to Google, the IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

During your visit to our website, your user behavior is recorded in the form of so-called events, such as:

  • Page views
  • Start of a session
  • Length of stay
  • User engagement
  • First visit to a website
  • Scrolls (when a visitor scrolls to 90% of the bottom of the page)
  • Clicks on external links
  • Viewed or clicked ads
  • Internal searches
  • Interaction with video content
  • Downloads
  • Language settings

In addition, the following information is collected:

  • Your approximate location (region)
  • Your IP address (in shortened form)
  • Technical information such as browser, internet provider, device and screen resolution
  • Source/referrer URL of your visit (i.e. which website or advertising medium brought you to us)

Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html and at https://policies.google.com/?hl=de.

On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide further services related to website and internet use to the website operator.

Legal basis

The legal basis for this data processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Recipients

We use technical service providers for the operation and maintenance of our website and for the evaluation of cookies who act as our processors.

Further recipients of the data are Google Ireland Limited (Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland). Google Ireland Limited uses Google LLC in the USA (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) as a service provider.

Storage period

The data sent by us and linked to cookies is automatically deleted after: 12 months.

The maximum lifetime of Google Analytics cookies is two years. Data deletion once the retention period has been reached occurs automatically once a month.

Third-country transfer

Since Google’s headquarters are in the USA, it cannot be ruled out that data will be processed on Google servers in the USA. This entails the risk that your data may be processed by US authorities for control and monitoring purposes without effective legal remedies. To ensure an adequate level of data protection, we have concluded EU Standard Contractual Clauses with Google, which can be viewed here: https://business.safety.google/adscontrollerterms/sccs/eu-c2c/

You can withdraw your consent at any time for the future in the cookie settings.

You can also prevent tracking by Google Analytics on our website by clicking this link. An opt-out cookie will then be installed on your device. This will prevent Google Analytics from collecting data for this website and this browser in the future as long as the cookie remains installed in your browser.

You can also prevent the collection by Google of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: Browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics.
