The information that we collect is anonymous and used for statistical purposes only. These cookies are also used to create profiles or personalize content, e.g. advertisement based on your interests.

Currently, we are using the following cookies on our website:

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter referred to as "Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies, to analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website (including your IP address) will be transmitted and stored by Google on servers in the USA.

In the event IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be truncated by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional circumstances a full IP address will be saved to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. The IP anonymisation is active on this website. Google will use this information on our behalf for the purpose of evaluating your use of this website, compiling reports on website activity, and providing us with other services relating to the use of this website and the internet.

The IP-address that your Browser conveys within the scope of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google.

We also use other technologies on our website which allow us and third party providers to offer you a more personalised web experience, e.g. by offering you advertisements on your social media channels that are more relevant to you.

• Facebook Pixels

Facebook Pixels are small pieces of software and are nearly invisible pixel-sized “dots” on our Website which create a link between your visit to our website and Facebook.

When the pixel loads, Facebook places a so-called “fr”-cookie on your computer, which helps Facebook to provide you with more personalized advertisements, but also to measure and improve advertisements. Please find more information above. Additional information on Facebook cookies can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/.

Please note that when the “fr”-cookie is placed, Facebook is able to follow your surfing behaviour across other websites which have implemented a Facebook pixel or Facebook social plug-in.

This website uses a so-called social plugin (hereinafter “Plugin“ ) of the microblogging service Instagram. The service is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California, USA.(hereinafter “Provider”).

When visiting one of our websites which contains such a Plugin your browser will create a direct link with the servers of the Provider. The content of the Plugin is directly transmitted by the Provider to your web browser which then incorporates it in the website.

By integrating a Plugin, the Provider receives the information that your browser has accessed the relevant page of our website, even if you do not have a profile or account with the providers or if you are not logged in at the time of access. This information (including your IP address) may be sent directly from your browser to a server of the respective provider in the U.S. and stored there.

If you have a profile or an account and you are logged-in while visiting our website, the Provider can assign your visit to our website directly with your profile or account. If you interact with the Plugin, the corresponding information will be transferred directly to a server of the Provider and stored there. The information may also be posted on your Instagram-account and can be seen by your contacts.

The Provider may use this information for purposes of advertising, market research and needs-based design of their pages. For this purpose, the Provider creates profiles regarding usage, interests and relationships, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on the respective platform, to inform other users about your activities on our website, and to provide further services associated with the use of Instagram.

If you do not want the Provider to allocate the collected data via our website to your profile or account, you must log out of Instagram before you visit our website.

To find out more about the purpose and extent to which the Provider collects, processes and uses this data, your rights, and the settings available to protect your privacy, please see the data protection policies of Instagram: https://help.instagram.com/519522125107875

There are a number of ways to manage cookies. Please refer to your browser settings or help section to learn more about how to adjust or modify the browser settings.
