Cookies might be used. These are small text files that are stored locally on the site visitor’s computer, allowing them to be recognized when revisiting our website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in unique cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there.

On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.

The pseudonymised user profiles will not be merged with personal data about the bearer of the pseudonym without specifically expressed consent of the person concerned. You can object to the collection and storage of data for the purpose of web analysis at any time with effect for the future. See: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

If you visit certain web pages on our website and the cookie has not expired, Google as well as we might recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Thus, there is no way that cookies can be tracked through the websites of advertisers.
