Use of Google Analytics
We use the web analytics service Google Analytics from Google LLC on our website. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google").

Google Analytics uses cookies, which enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookies about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. IP anonymization is activated on this website. As a result, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
Google has certified itself according to the US-EU data protection agreement "Privacy Shield" and is thus obliged to comply with European data protection guidelines.

Using Facebook Remarketing

We use the "Custom Audiences" remarketing function of Facebook Inc. (1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA; "Facebook") on our website.
The purpose of the application is to target visitors to the website with interest-based advertising on the social network Facebook.
For this purpose, the Facebook remarketing tag was implemented on the website. This tag is used to establish a direct connection to the Facebook servers when you visit the website. This transmits to the Facebook server which of our pages you have visited. Facebook assigns this information to your personal Facebook user account. If you visit the social network Facebook, you will then be shown personalized, interest-based Facebook ads. Your data may be transmitted to the USA. Facebook has certified itself according to the US-EU data protection agreement "Privacy Shield" and is thus obliged to comply with European data protection guidelines.
You can disable the Custom Audiences remarketing feature here.
