4. ANALYTICS, PERFORMANCE, TARGETING, AND ADVERTISING COOKIES
4.1. GOOGLE ANALYTICS
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service. It is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”. These are text files stored on your computer, which allow an analysis of the website’s use by you. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
Google Analytics cookies are stored based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize its website and its advertising.
4.2. IP ANONYMIZATION
We have activated the IP anonymization feature on this website. Google will shorten your IP address within the European Union or other parties to the European Economic Area’s Agreement before transmission to the United States. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of this website’s operator to evaluate your website’s use, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services regarding website activity and Internet usage for the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with any other data held by Google.
4.3. BROWSER PLUGIN
You can prevent the cookies used via Google Analytics from being stored by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser. However, we wish to point out that doing so may mean you will not enjoy the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the data generated by cookies about your use of the website (incl. your IP address) from being passed to Google, and the processing of these data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

4.5 OUTSOURCED DATA PROCESSING
We have entered into an agreement with Google to outsource our data processing and fully implement the strict requirements of the data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.
4.6 DEMOGRAPHIC DATA COLLECTION
This website uses Google Analytics’ demographic features. This allows reports to be generated containing statements about the age, gender, and interests of site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google and third-party visitor data. This collected data cannot be attributed to any specific person. You can disable this feature at any time by adjusting the ads settings in your Google account, or you can forbid the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as described in the sections “BROWSER PLUGIN” and “OBJECTING TO THE COLLECTION OF DATA (OPT-OUT COOKIE)”.
