Use of cookies and analysis service

Cookies

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files, which are saved in the internet browser or by the internet browser on the user’s computer system. If a user opens a website, then a cookie can be saved on the user’s operating system. A cookie contains a characteristic string, which clearly identifies the browser when the website is opened again.

Technically essential cookies are used to simplify the use of our website for the user. We cannot offer some functions of our website without using cookies. A list is given below:

Cookie name Expiry date Purpose

This cookie tells the website if a visitor is logged onto Typo3-Backend and has the rights to manage it.

fe_typo_user

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web-analysis service of Google Inc. (''Google''). Google Analytics uses so-called cookies. The information generated by the cookie regarding your usage of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in USA and is saved there. If the IP-anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within the member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the agreement across the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in USA and will be shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your usage of the website, to assemble reports on the website activities and to provide other services associated with the use of the website and of the internet to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser is not compiled with other Google data, as a part of Google Analytics.

We would like to point out that Google Analytics is expanded by the “{anonymize_ip: true}” code on this website in order to ensure an anonymised collection of IP addresses (so-called IP Masking).

Processing of personal data of the users enables us to analyse the surfing behaviour of our users. With the evaluation of the data obtained, we are able to compile information on the use of individual components of our website and to steadily improve the user friendliness of our website.

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer needed for recording purposes. For us, this is after 14 months.

For more information on the terms of use and data protection related to Google Analytics, refer to google.com/analytics/terms/ or to techfacts.de/ratgeber/google-analytics-datenerhebung.
