In order to make the visit to our website attractive and the use of certain functions more user-friendly, effective and secure, we use so-called cookies on various pages. These are small text files that assign your browser to your end device and transmit corresponding information to us. Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your end device.
The cookies we use are usually so-called “session cookies”. These are automatically deleted after you leave our website. In addition, we occasionally use cookies that remain stored on your end device after you leave our website until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit and thus display information and settings relevant to you more quickly. If a cookie stores an IP address, this is anonymized and there is no possibility of a personal assignment of this data.
Alternatively, you can also individually configure the use of cookies via your browser. We would like to point out that you may not be able to use all functions of our website to their full extent if the use of cookies is restricted.
Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter Google). Google Analytics also uses cookies, which transmit information about your use of our website to a Google server in the USA where it is stored. Since our platform uses Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizeIp()”, your IP address is shortened by Google before transmission, so that a direct personal allocation is excluded. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
You can prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of our website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

Once you have logged into your account on the platform, Google Analytics will no longer be used.
Our website may use Google Conversion Tracking “Adwords”, an analysis service from Google. A cookie is set on your device if you have accessed our website via a Google ad. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If you visit individual pages of our platform and your cookie has not yet expired, both Google and we can recognize that you clicked on our ad and were redirected to our site. The information obtained with the help of the cookie is used to create conversion statistics. We thus learn the total number of users who clicked on an ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information with which we can identify you personally.
If you do not wish to participate in the tracking process, you can also refuse the setting of a cookie required for this purpose — for example, via a browser setting that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of our website to their full extent. You can also disable cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “googleadservices.com”.
