You can delete cookies from the hard disk of your computer at any time by editing the privacy settings of your browser. The legal basis for this is, as described in 4. Google Analytics, your consent in accordance with Article 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR.

Only in exceptional cases will the entire IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.

Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and provide additional services associated with the use of the website and internet to the website operator. The IP address that your browser transmits within the scope of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google.

The legal basis for the use of the analytic tool is Article 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. When you visit the website and confirm the corresponding function in the cookie notice, you are giving us your consent to use Google Analytics.

5. Use of Google AdWords Conversion Tracking

This website uses the online advertising programme "Google AdWords" and conversion tracking as part of Google AdWords. The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files which are saved on your computer system. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. Should you visit certain pages of the website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the website can tell that you clicked on the ad and proceeded to that page. Each Google AdWords advertiser has a different cookie. Thus, cookies cannot be tracked using the website of an Adwords advertiser. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Adwords customers who have opted into conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a conversion tracking tag page. However, they do not obtain any information which can be used to identify you personally. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can refuse by simply deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie via your internet browser settings. By doing so, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The legal basis for the use of Google AdWords is Article 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. When you visit the website and confirm the corresponding function in the cookie notice, you are giving us your consent to use Google AdWords. If you do not consent to the use of this tool, it will be not be used. This option is made available to you every day when you visit our website again.

The extended data protection mode is used here, which, according to the provider, does not begin storing user information until the video(s) are played. If the playback of embedded YouTube videos is started, the provider uses "YouTube" cookies to collect information about user behaviour. According to YouTube, these serve, among other things, to collect video statistics, to improve user-friendliness and to prevent abusive practices. Regardless of the playback of the embedded videos, every time this website is accessed, a connection to Google's DoubleClick network is established, which can trigger further data processing operations without our influence.
