I. Data processing
V. Web analytics by Google Analytics, use of cookies
1. Scope of the processing of personal data
On our website, we use the analysis software Google Analytics for analysing our users' surfing behaviour. The software places a cookie on the user's computer.
Cookies are text files that are stored in the internet browser or on the user's computer system by the internet browser. When a user visits a website, a cookie is stored on the user's operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string, enabling the unique identification of the browser when you revisit the website.
If individual pages of our website are visited, the following data is stored:
(1) The first two bytes of the IP address of the user's system used for the visit
(2) The webpage visited
(3) The website via which the user accessed the webpage (referrer)
(4) The subpages visited via the visited webpage
(5) The duration of visit to the website
(6) The frequency with which the webpage is visited
In this respect, the software runs on the servers of the service provider, Google Analytics. The software is set up such that the IP addresses will not be stored completely; rather the last two bytes of the IP address are masked (e.g.: 192.168.xxx.xxx). In this way, the assignment of the truncated IP address to the accessing computer is no longer possible
2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
The legal basis for the processing of the personal data of users is Section 6(1f) GPDR.
3. Purpose of the data processing
The processing of users' personal data allows to analyse our users' surfing behaviour.
By evaluating the data obtained, we are able to compile information about the use of the individual components of our website. This helps us to continually improve our website and its user friendliness. Our legitimate interest in processing data also lies within these purposes, pursuant to Section 6(1f) GDPR. By anonymising the IP address, sufficient account is taken of the users' interest in protecting their personal data.
4. Duration of storage; options for raising objections and for removal
Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted to our site. Therefore, you as a user have full control over the use of cookies:
• By modifying the settings in your internet browser, you can disable or restrict the transfer of cookies.
• Previously stored cookies can be deleted at any time. This can also be done in an automated manner. If cookies are disabled for our website, it may be that not all of the features of the website can henceforth be used to their full extent.
• You can prevent collection by Google Analytics by clicking on the link below. An opt-out cookie will be used, which will prevent the future collection of data upon visiting this website. In this way, another cookie is placed on your system, which tells our system signals not to store the user's data. If, in the meantime, the user deletes the appropriate cookie from his/her own system, he/she must once again accept the opt-out cookie.
