The data processing serves the purpose of analyzing this website and its visitors as well as for marketing and advertising purposes. For this purpose, Google will use the information obtained on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The following information may be collected: IP address, date and time of the page view, click path, information about the browser you are using and the device you are using, pages visited, referrer URL (website from which you accessed our website), location data, purchase activities. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
Google Analytics uses technologies such as cookies, web storage in the browser and tracking pixels that enable your use of the website to be analyzed. The information generated about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. There is no adequacy decision by the EU Commission for the USA. The data transfer takes place, among other things, on the basis of standard contractual clauses as suitable guarantees for the protection of personal data, which can be viewed at: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks (https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks). Both Google and US state authorities have access to your data. Your data may be linked by Google with other data, such as your search history, your personal accounts, your usage data from other devices and any other data that Google has about you.
IP anonymization is activated on this website. This means that your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

Use of social plug-ins using the “2-click solution”
We use social network plug-ins on our website using the “2-click solution”. This means that no connections to the servers of the social networks are established without your express consent and consequently no data is transmitted.
With the standard integration of plug-ins, a link is established between your computer and the servers of the social network provider when you access the pages of our website that contain such a plug-in and the plug-in is displayed on the page by notifying your browser. Both your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited are transmitted to the provider servers. This applies regardless of whether you are registered or logged in to the social network. Transmission also takes place for users who are not registered or not logged in. If you are also logged into the Facebook social network, this information will be assigned to your personal user account. When using the plug-in functions (e.g. by clicking the button), this information is also assigned to your user account, which you can only prevent by logging out before using the plug-in. To ensure that you retain control over your data, we have decided to initially deactivate the corresponding button. You can recognize this by the greyed-out button. Without your express consent – in the form of activating the button – no link to the social network server will be established and consequently no data will be transmitted.
Only when you activate the button will the button become active (highlighted in color) and a direct connection to the social network servers will be established.
By activating it, you give your consent to the transmission of your data to the respective social network provider. Among other things, your IP address and the information about which of our pages you have visited will be transmitted. If you are connected to one or more of your social network accounts at the same time, the information collected will also be assigned to your corresponding profiles. You can only prevent this assignment by logging out of your user accounts with the social networks before visiting our website and before activating the buttons.
The following social networks are integrated using the “2-click function”. For more information on the scope and purpose of the collection and use of the data as well as your rights and options for protecting your privacy, please refer to the linked data protection notices of the providers.
