When you access our website—meaning you do not register or otherwise submit information—general technical information is automatically collected. This information (server log files) includes the type of web browser, operating system used, the domain name of your Internet service provider, your IP address, and similar data.
This information is processed for the following purposes:
We do not use your data to draw conclusions about your identity. However, we reserve the right to review the server log files retrospectively if there are concrete indications of unlawful use.
Processing is carried out pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR based on our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website as well as ensuring system security and detecting misuse.
The recipients of the data may include technical service providers who act as data processors on our behalf for the operation and maintenance of our website.
Server log files are stored in a form that permits the identification of data subjects for a maximum of 14 days unless a security-relevant event occurs (e.g., a DDoS attack).
In such cases, server log files are stored until the security incident has been resolved and fully investigated.
The provision of the above-mentioned personal data is neither legally nor contractually required. However, without the IP address, the service and functionality of our website cannot be guaranteed. Additionally, certain services and features may be unavailable or limited.
Please refer to the information regarding your right to object under Art. 21 GDPR below.

If you have given your consent, this website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland).
Google Analytics uses cookies to help analyze how users interact with the website. The information collected is typically transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the United States.
Google Analytics is configured with IP anonymization enabled by default. This means that Google truncates your IP address within EU or EEA member states. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the U.S. and truncated there. According to Google, the IP address transmitted by your browser will not be merged with other Google data.
During your visit to our website, your user behavior is tracked in the form of events, such as:
In addition, the following information is collected:
Further information on terms of use and privacy can be found at: www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html and https://policies.google.com/.
Google uses this information on behalf of the website operator to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website and internet usage.
We use technical service providers for the operation and maintenance of our website and for cookie evaluation. These providers act as data processors on our behalf.
Another recipient of the data is Google Ireland Limited (Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland), which uses Google LLC, based in the USA (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), as a service provider.
Data we send and that is linked to cookies will be automatically deleted after 14 months.
Google Analytics cookies have a maximum lifespan of two years. Data deletion takes place automatically on a monthly basis once the retention period has been reached.
Because Google’s headquarters is located in the United States, it is possible that your data may be processed on servers located in the U.S. This may pose a risk that U.S. authorities could access your data for surveillance purposes, without effective legal remedies being available to you. To ensure an adequate level of data protection, we have entered into EU Standard Contractual Clauses with Google, which can be reviewed here:
https://business.safety.google/adscontrollerterms/sccs/c2c/
You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by adjusting your cookie settings.
You can also disable Google Analytics tracking on our website by clicking this link. This sets an opt-out cookie on your device that prevents future data collection by Google Analytics on this website, provided the cookie remains installed in your browser.
Furthermore, you can prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and prevent Google from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link:

A cookie is a small data file that is created when you visit a website and temporarily stored on the website visitor’s device. When the user accesses the server of this website again, their browser sends the previously stored cookie back to the server. The server can then evaluate the information obtained through this process. Cookies help improve website navigation and usability in particular.
You can access detailed information about the cookies used on this website and their specific purposes at any time in the cookie settings.
You can delete individual cookies or the entire set of stored cookies. You will also find instructions on how to delete cookies or block their storage in advance, depending on your browser provider. Relevant information can be found via the following links:

Please refer to our cookie consent tool for a complete overview of the cookies used on this website.
The processing of data through technically necessary cookies is based solely on our legitimate interest in providing a user-friendly website experience and in documenting consent under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in conjunction with a balancing of interests under §25(2) TDDDG (German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act).

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (f) of Art. 6 (1) GDPR (data processing on the basis of a balance of interests); this also applies to profiling based on this provision within the meaning of Art. 4 No. 4 GDPR.
If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
