Google Analytics

This website uses the “Google Analytics” service offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to analyze website usage by users. The service uses “cookies” – text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymization is used on this website. The user's IP address is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This shortening eliminates the personal reference to your IP address. As part of the contract data agreement, which the website operators have concluded with Google Inc., the latter uses the information collected to compile an evaluation of website usage and website activity and provides services related to internet usage.

You can also use a browser plug-in to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to Google Inc. and used by Google Inc. The following link takes you to the corresponding plugin: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
