Conditions of use of Google Analytics

“This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. („Google“). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address) is sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google will use this information to analyse your usage of the website, to compile reports on website activities for the website operator and to render other services relating to website 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. Google will not under any circumstances link your IP address to other Google data. You can prevent the installation of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software; note, however, that this may mean that you are unable to use all functions of this website to the full extent. By using this website, you consent to the processing of the data gathered about you by Google in the manner described above and for the purposes described above.”

Consent to data collection and storage by Google Analytics can be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future. In the light of the discussion about the use of analytical tools with full IP addresses we would like to point out that this website uses Google Analytics with the “_anonymizeIp()” extension. This means that IP addresses are processed in shortened form only so that they cannot be directly traced to a particular individual.”

Conversion measurement with the Facebook tracking pixel

With your consent, given with the words “I agree to the use of the Facebook tracking pixel”, we use the “tracking pixel” provided by Facebook Inc. 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”) on our website. This enables tracking of user behaviour once a user has clicked on a Facebook advertisement and been transferred to the website of the company that placed the ad. This makes it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements for statistical and market research purposes and can help to optimise future advertising campaigns.
The data collected is anonymous for us and reveals nothing to us about users’ identities. However, Facebook saves and processes the data which means that a link can be established to each user’s profile and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook data use directive (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/). This data can enable Facebook and its partners to place ads on Facebook and elsewhere. Additionally, a cookie can be stored on your computer for this purpose. Only users older than 13 are permitted to consent to the use of the tracking pixel. If you are younger than 13, please ask your parents/guardian for permission.
