Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or other web accessing devices by our website. In most cases these are so called “session-cookies”, which are deleted once you leave the website.

You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, which will enable you to decide if you want to accept it or not. However, if you do not accept a cookie you may not be able to use all the functionality of your browser software.

3. Server Data

For technical reasons your internet browser transmits certain data in so called server log files to us:

• browser-type and –version
• operating system
• referrer URL
• websites you visit
• date and time of your visit

This anonymous data is stored separately from any personal information you may have provided, thereby making it impossible to connect it to any particular person. The data is used for statistical purposes in order to improve our website and services.

6. Use of Google Analytics with anonymization

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., Mountain View, CA 94043 U.S.A. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address is sent to and shortened by Google servers in the USA.

Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser.

7. Use of Google-Adwords

For purposes of promotion, our website also employs the Google ad tool “Google-Adwords” (for information concerning Google, see No. 6). If you access our site by way of a Google ad, a cookie is placed on your computer.

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or other web accessing devices by our website. In this case so called “conversion-cookies”, which cease to be active after 30 days, are used for identification. Google uses the information obtained through “conversion-cookies” to compile statistics for our website. These statistics tell us the total number of users who have clicked on our ad as well as which pages of our site were then accessed by each user. However, the information can not be used to personally identify users.

You can prevent the installation of “conversion-cookies” with your browser settings, e.g. by deactivating the automatic placement of cookies. However, if you do not accept a cookie you may not be able to use all the functionality of our website.
