Google Analytics
For the purpose of analyzing the use of our website, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics tool from Google that automatically processes your data (IP address, time of visit, information about your device and browser, as well as information about your use of our website) for this purpose and creates pseudonymous user profiles based on them. Cookies may be used for this purpose. Your IP address is generally not combined with other data collected by Google. Data processing within Google Analytics is carried out on the basis of a data processing agreement concluded with Google.
In order to optimize and make our website offer more attractive, we have also activated the data sharing settings for “Google products and services”.

To create and perform A/B tests of our website, we also use the Google Optimize tool, which is an extension of the Google Analytics services.
For web analytics purposes, we also use Google Signals, which is an extension of Google Analytics and enables so-called “cross-device tracking” (identifying users using multiple devices). This means that if your internet-enabled devices are connected to your Google account and you have activated the “personalized advertising” option in your Google account, Google can generate reports on how our website is used (in particular, the number of users using different devices), even if you change devices. We do not process your personal data in this respect; we only receive statistics based on Google Signals functions and technologies. For the purposes of analyzing the use of our website and advertising, we also use the so-called DoubleClick Cookie within the Google Analytics service, which allows your browser to be recognized when using other websites. Google will use this information to compile a report on your activities on our website and to provide other services related to the use of the website.
Google AdSense
Our website promotes advertising space from other providers and advertising networks via Google AdSense. These advertisements are displayed to you in various places on our website. As part of the integration of Google AdSense, when you visit our website, a so-called DoubleClick cookie from Google is stored on your end device, which enables the display of advertisements based on your interests and processes your data for this purpose (IP address, time of visit, information about your device and browser, as well as information about your use of our website) and automatically assigns you a pseudonymous user ID (UserID).

Google Analytics
For the purpose of analyzing the use of our website, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics tool from Google that automatically processes your data for this purpose (IP address, time of visit, information about your device and browser, as well as information about your use of our website) and creates pseudonymous user profiles based on them. Cookies may be used for this purpose. Your IP address is generally not combined with other data collected by Google. Data processing within the Google Analytics service is based on a data processing agreement concluded with Google.
In order to optimize and make our website offering more attractive, we have also activated the data sharing settings for “Google products and services”. This allows Google to access the data collected and processed within Google Analytics and to use it to improve the products and services provided by Google. The data is shared with Google for this purpose on the basis of an additional agreement concluded between the data controllers. We have no influence on the subsequent processing of the data by Google.
We also use Google Optimize, an extension of Google Analytics, to create and perform A/B tests of our website.
For web analytics purposes, we also use the Google Signals tool, which is an extension of Google Analytics services and enables so-called “cross-device tracking” (identifying users using multiple devices). This means that if your internet-enabled devices are connected to your Google account and you have activated the “personalized advertising” option in your Google account, then Google can generate reports on how our site is used (in particular, the number of users using different devices), even if you change devices. We do not process your personal data in this respect, we only receive statistics based on Google Signals functions and technologies.
Google AdSense
Our website promotes advertising space from other providers and advertising networks via Google AdSense. These advertisements are displayed to you in various places on our website.

Further data processing only takes place if you have activated the option to personalize ads in your Google account settings.
