The cookie is the only file on your device that is identified. Personal data can only be stored in cookies if you have agreed to this, or this is technologically mandatory, e.g., to enable login to a protected area.

How can cookies be deactivated?

When you use our website, you agree to the use and storing of cookies on your device. Of course, you can also view our website without cookies. However, this may limit the functionality of some parts of our website.

To decline cookies, an opt-out cookie is set in your browser. This cookie is only used for your refusal. Please note that due to technical reasons, an opt-out cookie can only be used for the browser from which it was set.

Google Analytics

If you have given your consent, Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. ("Google") is used on this website. The use includes the "Universal Analytics" operating mode. This makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus analyze a user's activities across devices.

Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users interact with the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended to include IP anonymisation in order to ensure anonymous collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html or https://policies.google.com/?hl=en.
