V. Web analysis by means of Google Analytics
1. Description and scope of personal data processing
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies, text files that are stored on your computer and enable analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of this website is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google shortens your IP address beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other countries that are signatories to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address is only sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases.
Further information on conditions of use, data processing measures and data protection can be found at www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html and at support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=.
Please note that on the Google Analytics website, the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” has been added in order to ensure anonymised collection of IP addresses (IP masking).
Our website uses Google conversion tracking. If you have reached our website via an advertisement delivered by Google, a cookie is deposited on your computer by Google AdWords. The cookie for conversion tracking is deposited if a user clicks on an advert delivered by Google. These cookies become invalid after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits specific pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can detect that the user has clicked on the advert and been forwarded to this page. Every Google AdWords customer receives another cookie. Therefore, cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information obtained by means of the conversion cookies is used in preparing conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. The customers find out the total number of users who have clicked on their advert and been forwarded to a site provided with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified.
If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can reject the depositing of a cookie that is required for this – for instance via a browser setting that deactivates all automatic depositing of cookies, or by configuring your browser in such a way that cookies from the domain “googleleadservices.com“ are blocked.
We use the remarketing technology of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google“). Via this technology, users who have already visited our web pages and online services and are interested in the offering are addressed again by means of targeted advertising on the pages of the Google Partners network. The advertising is displayed through the use of cookies – these are small text files that are stored on the user’s computer. By means of the text files, user behaviour while visiting the site can be analysed, and can subsequently be used for targeted product recommendations and interest-based advertising.
