We use the web analytics service Google Analytics of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountainview, CA 94043 USA (“Google”) on this website. Google Analytics uses cookies to analyse your use of the website. If you permit the use of these cookies, the following data is processed:
The information generated by this cookie is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. When Google Analytics is in use, it is possible that the cookies used by Google Analytics may record further personal data in addition to the IP address. Please note that Google may transmit this information to third parties if allowed by law, or if these third parties are processing the data on behalf of Google.
Google will use the information generated by the cookies on behalf of the operator of this website to analyse your website use, in order to generate reports on website activity, as well as to provide other services associated with use of the website for the website operator. Based on Google’s own statements, the IP-address that your Browser conveys within the scope of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google. You can prevent cookies from being saved in general by changing the settings of your browser software accordingly.
However, please note that, if you do so, you may not be able to use all of the functions of this website in full. It is possible that the cookies used by Google Analytics may record further personal data in addition to the IP address. To prevent information on your use of the website from being recorded by and transmitted to Google Analytics, you can download and install a plug-in for your browser via the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de This plug-in prevents information on your visit to the website from being transmitted to Google Analytics. The plug-in does not prevent other analysis. Please note that you cannot use the above browser plug-in if you are accessing our website via the browser on a mobile device (smartphone or tablet). Clicking this link will set a so-called opt out cookie in your browser. This will prevent information on your visit to the website from being transmitted to Google Analytics. Please note that the opt-out cookie is valid only for this browser and only for this domain. When you delete the cookies in this browser, the opt-out cookie will also be deleted. To continue preventing information from being recorded by Google, you will have to click the link again. The opt-out cookie can also be used as an alternative to the above plug-in when using the browser on your computer.
To ensure the best possible protection of your personal data, the code “anonymizeIp” has been added to Google Analytics on this website. This code causes the last 8 bits of the IP address to be deleted, thereby recording your IP address in an anonymised fashion (called IP masking). Your IP address is generally truncated, and thereby anonymised, by Google before transmission within a member state of the European Union, or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the whole IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.
Personal data may be transmitted to states outside of the EU/EEA, in particular to the USA, within the framework of using Google Analytics. To ensure appropriate protection of your personal data if it is transmitted to such so-called third countries, we have concluded EN-US standard contractual clauses with Google. The European Court of Justice considers the USA to be a country with an insufficient level of data protection under EU standards. Because no adequacy decision has been adopted, and because no relevant guarantees have been provided, there is a risk, in particular, that your data may be processed by US authorities for controlling and monitoring purposes, possibly without any legal recourse for you. Furthermore, we are in an ongoing discussion with Google to ensure the protection of your personal data through additional measures if necessary.
You can prevent cookies from being stored by changing the settings in your browser software accordingly, or by using the cookie consent manager in the “COOKIE SETTINGS”; however, please note that if you do so you may not be able to use all of the functions of this website in full.
Further information is available at: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or at https://policies.google.com/ (general information on Google Analytics and data protection).
The legal basis for using this cookie is your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke this consent at any time with future effect by deactivating cookies in your browser settings or using the cookie consent manager in the “COOKIE SETTINGS”. Furthermore, please refer to clause 4.
The storage term for data using Google Analytics is defined as a maximum of 2 years. The cookies set by Google Analytics have a maximum service life of 2 years.

We use videos from YouTube on this website. YouTube is part of the company Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“YouTube”). Videos are used in expanded data protection mode, which prevents analysis of user behaviour. This means that no data is collected on user activities, in order to personalise the display of the video. YouTube only sets cookies if you actively play an embedded video.
If you permit the use of these cookies, the following data is processed:
If you access a page on our website that has a YouTube plug-in, the page forms a connection to the YouTube servers, displaying the plug-in on the website via transmission to your browser. Because of this, the YouTube server is informed which of our websites you visited. If you are logged in as a member of YouTube, then YouTube associated this information with your personal user account on this platform. If you use this plug-in, such as by clicking on the Start button for a video or submitting a comment, this information will be associated, for instance, with your YouTube user account. The only way to prevent this is to log out before using the plug-in.
