Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", i.e. text files that are placed on your computer to permit an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookies with respect to your use of this website will be generally transmitted to and stored by a Google server in the USA. IP anonymisation is activated on our website, i.e. should you access this website from a member state of the European Union or from another country that is party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, Google will truncate your IP address before transmission. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to the server of Google in the US and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of analysing your use of the website, compiling reports on the website activities and providing the website operator with other services relating to website and Internet usage.

(4) This website uses Google Analytics with the suffix "_anonymizeIp()". Like this, IP addresses are truncated before being processed; it is then no longer possible to link them to a certain person. Insofar as the data collected allow for a direct reference to a person, this is immediately made impossible, and the personal data are immediately erased.
(5) We use Google Analytics to analyse the use of our website and to regularly improve it.

(1) This page uses plugins of the social network Facebook, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. You can recognize these Facebook plugins by the Facebook logo or the “Like”-button on our page. At http://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/ you will receive an explanation of the different modules. When visiting our page, a direct connection between your internet browser and Facebook servers will be built. Among other things, Facebook will get the information that you visited our page with your IP address. If you click the like button and sign up with your Facebook account, you can link the content of our page on your own profile to Facebook. This allows your Facebook account to assign your visit to our page. As an operator of the pages, we will not be aware of the content of the data submitted and their use by Facebook. Facebook's privacy statement can be found at https://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php it contains more detailed information about the use of the data.

(1) This website embeds videos of YouTube. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
(2) We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode causes YouTube not to store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, the disclosure of data to YouTube partners is not necessarily excluded by the extended data protection mode. Thus, YouTube - regardless of whether you watch a video - establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network.
(3) As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account. Furthermore, YouTube can save various cookies on your end device after starting a video or use comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device fingerprinting). In this way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve the user experience and prevent fraud attempts.
(4) If applicable, further data processing operations may be triggered after the start of a YouTube video, over which we have no control.
(5) YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
