SSL encryption

This site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as enquiries that you may send to us as site operators. Encrypted connections may be identified by the fact that the address line of your browser will change from "http://" to "https://" and by the padlock symbol in your browser line.
Provided the SSL encryption is activated, third parties will not be able to read the data you transmit to us.

Use of Google Analytics

(1) This website uses the Google Inc. (“Google”) web analysis service Google Analytics. Google Analytics uses “cookies”, i.e. text files stored on your computer to allow analyses of how you use the website. The information on your use of this website as generated by such cookies will generally be sent to a Google server in the USA, where it will be stored. When you activate IP anonymisation on this website (see paragraph 4 for more detail) Google will, however, within Member States of the European Union or other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, truncate your IP address prior to transmission. Full IP addresses will be transmitted to a Google server in the USA to be truncated there in exceptional cases only. Google will, on behalf of the operator of this website, use this information to evaluate how you are using it and to compile reports on website activities and provide other services related to Internet usage to the operator.
(2) The IP address your browser transmits within the framework of Google Analytics will not be associated with other Google data.
(3) Although you are free to block the storage of cookies by suitably instructing your browser, we point out that some functionalities of this website may not thereafter remain fully functional. You may, in addition, also block Google’s collection of cookie-generated data related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and their processing of this data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
(4) This website uses Google Analytics with the “_anonymizeIp()” extension. This means that IP addresses will be processed in abbreviated form, thus ruling out associations with persons. Any links between your private collected data and the person will thus be excluded and such personal data will be deleted.
(5) Google Analytics enables us to analyse and continuously improve the use of our website. The generated statistics allow us to improve our offer and make it more interesting to you, the user. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f DSGVO [GDPR].
