The information generated by these cookies, for example time, place and frequency of your website visit including your IP address, is transmitted to Google in the USA and stored there.

We use Google Analytics with an IP anonymization function on our website. In this case, your IP address will already be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area and thus anonymized.

Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of our website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf.

Furthermore, Google offers a deactivation option for the most common browsers, which gives you more control over what data is collected and processed by Google. Should you activate this option, no website visit information will be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, activation does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analytics services we may use.

Use of Google+ recommendation components

We use the "+1" button of the provider Google+ of the company Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter "Google", on our website.

With each individual call-up of our website, which is equipped with such a "+1" component, this component causes the browser used by you to download a corresponding representation of the component from Google. This process informs Google which specific page of our website is currently being visited. 

According to the information provided by Google, a further evaluation of your visit does not take place in the event that you are not logged into your Google account. 

If you visit our site and are logged in to Google during this time, Google can collect information about your Google account, the website you recommend, your IP address and other browser-related information when you confirm the "+1" button. 

Thus, your "+1" recommendation can be stored and made publicly available. Your Google "+1" recommendation thus made can then be displayed as a notice together with your account name and, if applicable, with your photo stored at Google in Google services, such as in search results or in your Google account or in other places, such as on websites and advertisements on the Internet. Furthermore, Google may link your visit to our site with your data stored at Google. Google also records this information in order to further improve Google services.

Therefore, if you want to prevent the aforementioned recording by Google as best as possible, you must log out of your Google account before visiting our website.

Use of Google Maps

We use the "Google Maps" component of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter "Google", on our website.

Each time the "Google Maps" component is called up, Google sets a cookie in order to process user settings and data when displaying the page on which the "Google Maps" component is integrated. As a rule, this cookie is not deleted by closing the browser, but expires after a certain time, unless you delete it manually beforehand.

If you do not agree to this processing of your data, you have the option of deactivating the "Google Maps" service and thus preventing the transfer of data to Google. To do this, you must deactivate the Java Script function in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use "Google Maps" or only to a limited extent.

Use of reCAPTCHA

In order to protect input forms on our website, we use the "reCAPTCHA" service of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter "Google". The use of this service makes it possible to distinguish whether the corresponding input is of human origin or is misused by automated machine processing.

To our knowledge, the referrer URL, the IP address, the behavior of website visitors, information about the operating system, browser and dwell time, cookies, display instructions and scripts, the user's input behavior and mouse movements in the area of the "reCAPTCHA" checkbox are transmitted to "Google".

Google uses the information thus obtained, among other things, to digitize books and other printed matter and to optimize services such as Google Street View and Google Maps (e.g. house number and street name recognition).

The IP address transmitted as part of "reCAPTCHA" is not merged with other data from Google, unless you are logged into your Google account at the time of using the "reCAPTCHA" plug-in. If you want to prevent this transmission and storage of data about you and your behavior on our website by "Google", you must log out of "Google" before you visit our site or use the reCAPTCHA plug-in.

We use components of the provider facebook.com on our website. Facebook is a service of facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA.

Each time you visit our website, which is equipped with such a component, this component causes the browser you are using to download a corresponding representation of the component from facebook. This process informs facebook which specific page of our website you are currently visiting.

If you visit our site and are logged in to facebook during this time, facebook recognizes which specific page you are visiting through the information collected by the component and assigns this information to your personal account on facebook. If, for example, you click on the "Like" button or make corresponding comments, this information is transmitted to your personal user account on facebook and stored there. In addition, the information that you have visited our site is passed on to facebook. This happens regardless of whether you click on the component or not.
