Website analysis with Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, after obtaining the user's consent. The responsible entities are Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland, for users from the EU/EEA and Switzerland. By default, Google Analytics 4 practices IP anonymization, meaning your IP address is shortened immediately when you interact with this website. Only in rare cases will your full IP address be transmitted to a US-based Google server and shortened there. Google asserts that the IP address transmitted via Google Analytics is never combined with other Google data. Google Analytics 4 is only activated with your consent via the cookie banner and can be revoked at any time via the cookie settings.

The processed data includes: usage data such as page views, website interaction, general location, and duration of visit; and communication data such as shortened IP addresses, user agent, language settings, and screen resolution. The purpose of this data processing is for Google to evaluate the use of your website on your behalf, compile reports on website activities, and analyze website performance. This data processing is legal, based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 sentence 1 TDDDG.

Google Ireland Limited, Google LLC, and Alphabet Inc. are the recipients of this data. Your website usage information is typically sent to a Google server in the USA, an action legitimized by the European Commission's adequacy decision of July 10, 2023, which recognizes the certification of Google LLC under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Regarding data storage, any data linked to cookies is automatically deleted after a specified period—monthly for data that has reached its retention period, and a maximum of 2 years for Google Analytics cookies.

Technical Details and Additional Information
Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", which are text files stored on the site visitor's computer that enable an analysis of the site visitor's use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about the site visitor's use of this website (including the shortened IP address) is generally transmitted to a Google server and stored there.

Google Analytics is used on this website exclusively with the extension "_anonymizeIp()". This extension ensures the anonymization of the IP address by shortening it and excludes any direct personal reference. Through this extension, Google pre-shortens the IP address within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. 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 the corresponding browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.  

On behalf of the website operator, Google will use the resulting information to evaluate the use of the website, compile reports on website activities, and provide other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). The legitimate interest in data processing lies in optimizing this website, analyzing the use of the website, and adapting the content. The interests of users are sufficiently safeguarded by pseudonymization.

Google LLC is certified under the so-called Privacy Shield (list entry here) and ensures an appropriate level of data protection on this basis. Data sent and linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g., User ID), or advertising IDs are automatically deleted after 50 months. The deletion of data that has reached its retention period occurs automatically once a month.  

Opt-Out and Preventing Data Collection
  
Collection by Google Analytics can be prevented by the site visitor adjusting the cookie settings for this website. The collection and storage of the IP address and the data generated by cookies can also be objected to at any time with effect for the future. The corresponding browser plugin can be downloaded and installed at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
.  

The site visitor can prevent collection by Google Analytics on this website by clicking the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set, which prevents the future collection of data when visiting this website.
