A processing and storage of personal data takes place even if you want to take advantage of the services we offer, thus for contractual reasons or when there is a legitimate interest.

§ 4 Cookies

• Our website uses so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device using your browser. The purpose of using cookies is to provide us with certain information and to allow your browser to be recognized by us the next time you visit our website. In particular, cookies serve to make the internet offer friendlier and more effective. They do no harm and can not access your programs.
• If you do not agree with the use of cookies, you can reject or deactivate this function in your browser settings.

§ 5 Google Analytics

• Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (hereafter referred to as "Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called cookies, which are small text files that are stored on your device and allow an analysis of the use of the website by you. This information is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. In principle, your IP address is recorded. However, this can be shortened beforehand by activating IP anonymisation on this website, within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The transmission of the "full" IP address takes place only in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will process this information in order to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activities and to provide corresponding services related to the website usage to the website operator.
• A combination of the Google Analytics transmitted by your browser IP address with other data from Google does not occur.
• We would like to point out that this website uses Google Analytics with the setting "anonymize_ip: true" and therefore IP addresses are processed only shortened, in order to exclude a direct Personenbeziehbarkeit.
• If you do not agree with this use, you can deactivate the "Cookies" function in your browser settings. In addition, the collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website to Google and the processing of this data by Google can be prevented by using the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout? hl = en download the browser plug-in available there and install it on your computer.
• By using Google Analytics, we can regularly improve our website and our offerings. Please also note that in the event of a transfer of personal information to the United States, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield.
• Third Party Information "Google": Google Dublin, Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax +353 (1) 436 1001. See: https://www.google.com further information and a data protection declaration of the third party.

§ 6 Mandrill / Mailchimp

• For sending contact requests, we also use an add-on from Mailchimp called Mandrill. Again, this is an offer from The Rocket Science Group, LLC, 512 Means Street, Suite 404 Atlanta, GA 30318 ("Mandrill"). This service allows us to send emails. The service manages data about when an email that we have sent has been read, or links contained therein have been opened. As with Mailchimp, Mandrill is based in the United States. Your personal data will therefore be transferred to a country outside the European Economic Area that does not have the same level of personal data protection as within the European Economic Area. For this reason, we have entered into a contractual agreement with The Rocket Science Group, LLC, under which Mandrill is committed to protecting personally identifiable information about email senders and to providing personal information only on our behalf and on our behalf to process. For more information about Mandrill and privacy at Mandrill, please refer to the Mailchimp Privacy Policy: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/
