So far as supplying your personal data on our pages (eg name, address or e-mail addresses), this is always done on a voluntary basis wherever possible.

I would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (for example, by e-mail communication) can constitute a security risk. A complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible.

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service available from Google Inc. (‘Google’). Google Analytics uses so-called ‘cookies’, text files which are stored on your computer and which make possible the analysis of your use of the website. The information regarding your use of this website (including your IP address) from the cookies is sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

On no account will Google link your IP address to any other data retrieved by Google.

IP ANONYMIZATION

In view of the discussion about the use of Google Analytics with complete IP addresses, we would like to point out that this website uses Google Analytics with the ‘_anonymizeIp()’ extension, so that IP addresses are only processed further in abbreviated form in order to prevent them being directly linked to a particular individual.

If you are logged on to Facebook, Facebook is then able to allocate the visit to our website directly to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example, if you click on the ‘Like‘ button or enter a comment, the corresponding information will be sent directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information will also be published on Facebook and shown to your Facebook friends.

Facebook may use this information for purposes of advertising, market research and personalized design of Facebook pages. Facebook creates usage, interests and relationships profiles for this, e.g. to analyze your use of our website regarding the adverts displayed to you on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide further related services using Facebook.
If you do not want Facebook to collect data about you via our website and to link this with your data stored on Facebook, you should log-off from Facebook before visiting our website.
