Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, for the purpose of analysing and improving our online presence based on our legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files stored on your device that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by these cookies is generally transmitted to and stored on Google servers.
IP anonymisation is activated on this website. As a result, your IP address is shortened within member states of the European Union or other states that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted further. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server and shortened there.
Google uses this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our website, compile reports on website activity and provide other services related to website and internet usage.
The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.
You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting the settings of your browser software. Please note that doing so may limit the functionality of this website.

Facebook Social Plugins
Based on our legitimate interests in the analysis, optimisation and operation of our online services pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, this website may use social plugins provided by Facebook (Meta Platforms Inc.).
These plugins can be recognised by the Facebook logo or by buttons such as "Like", "Share" or "Follow".
When you visit a page containing a Facebook plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook's servers. As a result, Facebook receives information that your browser has accessed our website.
If you are logged into your Facebook account while visiting our website, Facebook can associate your visit with your personal account.
If you interact with a plugin, for example by clicking the "Like" button or sharing content, this information is transmitted directly to Facebook and stored there.
