Facebook plugins (Like button)

Plugins of the social network Facebook, provided by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA, are integrated on our website. You can recognise the Facebook plugins from the Facebook logo or the "Like button" on our website. You can find an overview of the Facebook plugins here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
When you visit our website, the plugin establishes a direct link between your browser and the Facebook server. This tells Facebook that you have visited our website with your IP address. If you click on the Facebook "Like button" while you are logged into your Facebook account, you can create a link to the contents of our website on your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to assign the visit to our website to your user account. We wish to point out that we as the website provider are not notified about the content of the transmitted data and the way it is used by Facebook. You can find further information about this in Facebook's privacy policy at https://facebook.com/privacy/explanation.
If you do not want Facebook to be able to assign the visit to our website to your Facebook user account, please log out of your Facebook user account.

Twitter

Functions of the service Twitter are embedded on our website. These functions are provided by Twitter Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. When you use Twitter and the "Retweet" function, the websites that you visit will be linked to your Twitter account and notified to other users. Data will also be transferred to Twitter in the process. We wish to point out that we as the website provider are not notified about the content of the transmitted data and the way it is used by Twitter. You can find further information about this in Twitter's privacy policy at https://twitter.com/privacy.
You can amend your Twitter privacy settings in the account settings at: https://twitter.com/account/settings.

YouTube

This website contains at least one plugin from YouTube, which belongs to Google Inc., based in San Bruno/California, USA. As soon as you visit pages on our website that contain a YouTube plugin, a link is established to the servers of YouTube. This tells the YouTube server which specific page on our website you have visited. If you are also logged into your YouTube account, you would enable YouTube to assign your browsing habits directly to your personal profile. You can remove this assignment possibility if you log out of your account beforehand. You can obtain further information about how your data is collected and used by YouTube in the site's privacy policy at www.youtube.com

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. Google Analytics uses the so-called "Cookies", which are text files that are stored on your computer and which allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored over there. However, if the IP anonymisation is activated on this website, then your IP address will be first shortened by Google within Member States of the European Union or in other Contracting States of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address is transferred to a Google server in the US and then shortened there. Google uses this information on behalf of the operator of this website, to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and to provide other website-related and internet usage-related services to the website operator.

The IP address provided by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent cookies from being saved by setting your browser software accordingly. However, we would point out that in this case you may not be able to fully utilize all the functions of this website. In addition, you can prevent Google from collecting and processing the data of the cookies related to your use of the Website (including your IP address) as well as the processing of this data by Google. This is done by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link. The current link is https://tools.google.com

SSL encryption

This website uses SSL encryption for reasons of security and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the requests that you send to us as the website operator. You can tell that a connection is encrypted because the browser address bar changes from "http://" to "https://" and from the padlock symbol in your browser bar.
If SSL encryption is enabled, the data that you send to us cannot also be read by third parties.

Use of Webalizer

In the version that we use, the web analysis tool "Webalizer" works with anonymisation of IP addresses. The IP addresses are shortened by the last three digits prior to any use for analysis of user behaviour so that it is no longer possible to establish a link to a person and you remain anonymous to us as the user. The anonymised data records are stored on our web server and evaluated in-house exclusively for statistical purposes. This data is not passed on to third parties at any time.

Right to information, erasure, blocking

You have the right at any time to receive free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing, as well as a right to rectification, blocking or erasure of this data. In relation to this and other questions relating to personal data, you can contact us at any time using the address which is specified in the legal notice.
