This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies”, text files which are saved on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. Information on your use of this website generated by the cookie is normally transferred to a Google server in the USA and saved there.

However, in case of activation of the IP anonymization, Google will truncate in advance your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address is sent to and shortened by Google servers in the USA. On behalf of the website provider, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating the use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website provider. Google will not associate your IP address sent by your browser within Google Analytics with any other data held by Google.

You may prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of this website fully. Furthermore, you can prevent Google’s collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (incl. your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Use of retargeting functions

Placing of interest-related advertising with the help of “Retargeting”

This website uses so-called “Retargeting Tags”. The "Retargeting tag" is a JavaScript element that is placed in the source code of the website. If a user visits a page on this site that contains a "Retargeting tag”, an online advertising provider (such as Google) places a cookie on that user's computer and assigns it to the appropriate retargeting target group lists. This cookie also serves to bring retargeting campaigns ("interest-related advertising") to other websites. Studies have shown that the inclusion of interest-related advertising is more interesting to the Internet user than advertising which has no direct relation to interests or previously visited websites.
