Cookies
Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your terminal device. Cookies help us to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure.
Some cookies are “session cookies.” Such cookies are deleted by themselves after the end of your browser session. In contrast, other cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them yourself. Such cookies help us to recognize you when you return to our website.
With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Many web browsers can be configured to automatically delete cookies when you close the program. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.
The setting of cookies, which are necessary for the exercise of electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions desired by you (e.g. cookie preferences), is based on Art. 6 (1) let. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services.
The use of other cookies (e.g. cookies for analysis purposes) is only done with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) let. a GDPR. Consent for cookies is obtained through our cookie banner when you first visit the website. You can change or revoke your cookie preferences at any time via the banner settings.

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Analytics uses cookies that enable an analysis of the use of the website by users. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, IP anonymization is activated on this website, so your IP address is shortened within the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
The use of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6 (1) let. a GDPR and only takes place with your prior consent via the cookie banner.
Google is certified under the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU.

Google Web Fonts
Our website uses web fonts from Google. The provider is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
By using these web fonts, it is possible to present you with the presentation of our website that we desire, regardless of which fonts are available to you locally. This is done by retrieving the Google Web Fonts from a Google server and the associated transfer of your data to Google. This includes your IP address and information about which of our pages you visited.

Data retention
We retain only the technical data necessary to operate the website securely and efficiently. Server log data is usually deleted automatically after 7 to 14 days. Data collected via Google Analytics is stored according to the default settings or the period we configure (usually 14 months).
