Our internet site uses cookies in relation to the following services:

On the basis of your consent according to Art. 6 Par. 1 lit. a of DSGVO, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”). Therefore, a contract for data processing according to Art. 28 of DSGVO has been concluded with Google.

With the use of cookies set by Google Analytics, user data (e.g. websites visited, access times) as well as communication data (e.g. IP addresses, device information) are processed on our behalf to analyze the usage of our online offer, to compile reports about the activities within our online offer as well as to provide services that are related to the use of our online offer. Hereby, the creation of pseudonymized user profiles is also possible.

The use of Google Analytics occurs exclusively via IP anonymization. All personal data processed will be deleted after 14 months or will be completely anonymized. Further information with regard to the data used by Google, the configuration options and the possibilities for appeal can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy as well as in the settings for the display of ads by Google.

  – YouTube

On our website, we embed videos from the platform YouTube. When visiting our website, personal data will initially not be transferred to the service provider. Only by activating the relevant contents by clicking on the video, personal data (e.g. the IP address or browser information) will be transferred. This is based on your consent according to Art. 6 Par. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a of DSGVO. Furthermore, the contents will be embedded in such a way that the setting of cookies by the service provider will be technically prevented beforehand. If you are however registered on the relevant platform, the service provider can on the other hand perform further data processing and allocations to existing user accounts. You can find information on data collection and data utilization by the service provider on the linked privacy policy information below:

Google Web Fonts

On our website we use Google Fonts. These are provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, parent company: Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA;
Website: https://fonts.google.com
Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

We use Google Fonts for a uniform presentation of fonts in the different browsers of our website visitors and for the technically secure, maintenance-free and efficient use of fonts as well as in consideration of possible license restrictions for their implementation. The legal basis is our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 Par. 1 lit. f of DSGVO. The data (CSS, fonts) is requested from the Google domain fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. According to Google, the request for fonts is carried out separately from all other Google services. According to its own statements, Google limits itself to providing only the fonts and analyzes the visitors’ data only in an aggregated form. That means, the sum of all data is only used for compiling statistics (e.g. which fonts are used how often). Therefore, user data (e.g. the interest in contents) as well as meta and communication data (e.g. device information and IP addresses) are processed in an aggregated form according to Google’s own information.

We link to external websites as well as to social media providers. The connection is set up in such a way that no data is passed on to the provider of external offers when visiting our website.

When clicking on a link or button, you will, however, be sent directly to that external offer. These sites collect and process your data – particularly log data (including IP address, browser type, operating system, previously accessed website, accessed pages, cookie information) – according to their own user guidelines and/or privacy polices which you can view on the respective sites.

We recommend that you read these policies before using the pages. Please be aware that data protection regulations in regard to those services may be updated or changed regularly due to extended functionalities or similar reasons. We have no influence on the type and scope of data processing by the provider based on your click. Information regarding your respective rights and settings for protecting your privacy can be found in the respective privacy policies.
