I c) Google Analytics (statistics)

Based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and operation of our website), we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC („Google“). Google uses cookies. The data on the users’ use of this website generated by such cookies shall be transmitted to and stored on one of Google's servers in the USA. Google is certified in accordance with the Privacy Shield framework and this means that Google guarantees compliance with the European data protection regulations ( https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active ).

Google will use such information in our name in order to analyse how our visitors use our website, to prepare reports on the users’ activities on our website and to render other services to us in connection with the use of the website and of the internet. During such analysis, pseudonymised user profiles may be generated based on the processed data.

We only use Google Analytics with activated IP anonymisation. This means Google will shorten the users’ IP addresses within the member states of the European Union or in other countries which are parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to one of Google’s servers in the USA and shortened thereafter. The IP address transmitted by the user’s browser will not be combined with other data collected by Google. Users may prevent the storage of cookies by changing the relevant settings of their browser software. In addition, users may prevent the collection of their personal data in relation to their use of the website as generated by the cookie by Google as well as the processing of such data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de .
