Server logs
Whenever this website is called up, the server infrastructure records a series of general data on access, which are stored in so-called log files. The name of the accessed website, the URL, date and time of access, transferred data volume, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page) and the user's IP address are recorded. These data are required to check and guarantee the functionality and security of the system.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are non-dangerous text files which your browser automatically saves on your device when you visit our website. They allow a visitor to be identified within a predefined period of time. These cookies are deployed to ensure you are able to use the technical functions, such as the contact form. In addition, they are a technical tool for the collection of data by third parties and Google Analytics mentioned in the section «Operation and hosting of this website». Most internet browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can set up your browser at any time so that cookies are not saved. In general, this website can also be used without accepting cookies. If cookies are deactivated, however, the functioning of this website may be restricted.
Web fonts
This website uses web fonts provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA to ensure the content is shown uniformly and in an appealing manner. When accessing a website, your browser loads the required web fonts in your browser cache, to show texts and fonts correctly. For this purpose, the browser you use must create a connection to Google's servers. This means that Google obtains information, for example, that your IP address accessed our website. Further information about Google web fonts can be found at developers.google.com/fonts and in Google's data privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy.
Google Analytics
To evaluate the use of our website, we use the Google Analytics service, a web analysis service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. For this purpose, cookies are used which allow an analysis of the use of the website by its users. The information generated is transferred to a server of the service provider and saved there. Before that, the access data is anonymised by shortening its IP address. This makes it impossible to link the data to a user. Google will evaluate visitor behaviour to compile reports about website activities and to perform further services for the website operator associated with the use of the website and the internet. The underlying records of Google about your visit to our website are deleted automatically after max. 180 days. You can prevent this data being recorded, by installing a browser add-on on the following website and thereby rejecting the future processing of this data: tools.google.com. You can find more information about the data privacy policy of Google Analytics at policies.google.com/privacy.
