• Google Analytics

Extent of personal data processing
We use the web tracking service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter referred to as “Google Analytics”) on our site. In the context of web tracking, Google Analytics uses cookies, which are stored on your computer and enable analysis of the use of our website and your surfing behaviour (so-called tracking). We carry out this analysis based on Google Analytics tracking services in order to continuously optimise our website and improve its availability. In the context of using our website, data, including your IP address and user activities in particular, is sent to Google LLC servers and is processed and stored outside of the European Union, e.g. in the US.

The European Commission has noted that an appropriate data protection level can exist in the US if the data processing company is subject to the EU/US Privacy Shield Agreement and if the data export to the US was designed to be permissible in this way. Google will anonymise your IP address before transmission if you activate IP anonymisation within this website’s Google Analytics tracking code. This website uses a Google Analytics tracking code expanded to include the gat._anonymizeIp(); operator so as to enable only anonymised collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).
       
Legal basis for personal data processing
Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. a of the GDPR (consent), either in the context of registration with Google (opening a Google account and accepting the privacy notice implemented there) or, if you have not registered with Google, through explicit consent when you call up our site.
       
Purpose of data processing
On our behalf, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your visit to this website, compiling reports on website activities and providing us with other services relating to website and Internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not associated with the other data held by Google LLC.
       
Duration of storage
Google will store the data which is relevant to the provision of web tracking for as long as is necessary to render the booked web service. Data is collected and stored in an anonymised format. If references to persons do exist, the data will be deleted immediately provided that it is not subject to any statutory retention requirements. In any case, deletion will take place once the retention requirement has expired.
       
Opportunity to object and remove
You can prevent personal data (particularly your IP address) from being collected by and disclosed to Google and Google’s processing of this data by deactivating the execution of script codes in your browser, by installing a script blocker in your browser (which you will find at www.noscript.net or www.ghostery.com, for example), or by enabling your browser’s “Do Not Track” setting. Furthermore, you can prevent Google’s collection and processing of the data generated by the Google cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).

• Google Tag Manager

Extent of personal data processing
We use the service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter referred to as “Google Tag Manager”) on our site. Google Tag Manager provides a technical platform to be able to execute other web services and web tracking programs and to manage them in a pooled manner using what are known as “tags”. In this regard, Google Tag Manager saves cookies on your computer and analyses your surfing behaviour if web tracking tools are executed using Google Tag Manager (so-called tracking). This data sent by individual tags integrated in Google Tag Manager is merged, stored and processed by Google Tag Manager using a standardised user interface. All of the incorporated tags are listed separately in this privacy policy.

The tracking tools used in Google Tag Manager ensure, by means of anonymising the source code’s IP address, that the IP address is anonymised by Google Tag Manager before transmission. In this regard, Google Tag Manager only enables anonymised collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).
