The information generated by the cookie regarding the customer's use of the website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
Google will use this information on our behalf to analyze the user’s use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by the user’s browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

This allows Google to measure the number of goal completions. In addition, cookies previously set by Google are only used to allocate adverts that have already been clicked on and are therefore absolutely necessary to achieve the target. Google processes this data on servers in the USA, but does not merge it with personal data in your Google account.

The data collected during the analysis is transmitted to Google. The use of reCAPTCHA is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in protecting our website from abusive automated spying and spam.

When you access a Facebook page, the IP address assigned to your device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymised (for "German" IP addresses).

Facebook buttons integrated into websites enable Facebook to record your visits to these websites and link them to your Facebook profile. This data can be used to offer you personalised content or advertising.
