3 Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use 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, your IP address will first be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent Google from capturing the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).

You can find more information on this at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or at privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/ (general information on Google Analytics and data protection). We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended by the code "gat._anonymizeIp();" in order to ensure anonymised capture of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).

4. piwik

Our website uses the open source software Piwik to statistically analyse visitor access.

Piwik uses "cookies" to analyse user access. These text files, which are stored on the computer of the respective user, make it possible to analyse the use of the website. The information and data generated by cookies are stored on a server in Germany. The IP address is anonymised before storage. You can deactivate the use of cookies in your browser settings. However, this may mean that our website can no longer be used to its full extent.

The data will not be passed on to third parties. Piwik uses user data in anonymised form so that we can optimise our website and our offer. IP addresses are stored by Piwik without the last digits. This enables us to determine the network from which an enquiry originates. It is therefore not possible to assign the IP address to a computer.

By using our website, you consent to the processing of data by Piwik to the extent described above and for the aforementioned purpose.

5 JW Player

If you have given your consent when accessing our website, we use the JW Player software to show you videos. Data is transferred to the manufacturer. This processing is based on your consent mentioned above, which fulfils the conditions of § 25 TTDSG and forms the legal basis according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. You can revoke this consent at any time by deactivating it in the consent tool at the beginning of the website.
The exact circumstances of the processing can be found in the explanations under "Show details" in the consent tool.
