Our website uses the external map service “Google Maps”, which is provided by “Google”. “Google Maps” enables the convenient use of the map feature on our website. When the map feature is used, information is also processed which is stored on users’ devices. By visiting the website, “Google” receives the information that users have retrieved the corresponding subpage of our website. Additionally, access data – such as the IP address, browser information, the website visited before, and the date and time of the server request – is transmitted to “Google”. This occurs regardless of whether “Google” provides a user account that users are logged in with or whether no user account exists. If users are logged in to “Google”, the user data will be directly associated with the corresponding “Google” account. “Google” stores the resulting usage data in the form of usage profiles and processes it, for its own statistical analysis and online advertising purposes, regardless of whether the user has a “Google” account. You can find more information about data protection and the storage period for “Google” at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Plugins from the streaming platform “YouTube.de” or “YouTube.com” are integrated into our website, making it possible to play videos directly on our website. When the streaming feature is used, information is also processed which is stored on users’ devices. The purpose of this data processing is to integrate visual content (“videos”) on the website that we have published on “YouTube.de”/”YouTube.com”. The videos are embedded in “extended privacy mode”, which means that no data about users will be transferred to “YouTube” if they do not play the videos. When videos are played on our website, “YouTube” receives the information that the corresponding sub-page of our website has been retrieved. Additionally, access data – in partic-ular the IP address, browser information, the website visited before, and the date and time of the server request – is transmitted to “Google”. This occurs regardless of whether “YouTube” provides a user account that users are logged in with or whether no user account exists. If users are logged in to “Google”, the user data will be directly associated with the corresponding “YouTube” account. “YouTube” stores the data in the form of usage profiles and processes it, for statistical analysis and online advertising purposes, regardless of whether the user has a “Google” account. You can find more information about data protection and the storage period for "YouTube" at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

The web analytics service “Google Analytics” uses technologies such as “cookies”, “tracking pixels” and “device fingerprinting” to track specific user behaviour on websites. This involves processing information that is stored on users’ devices. “Google” uses the “tracking pixels” embedded in websites and the “cookies” stored on users’ devices to process the information generated about the use of our website by users’ devices – e.g. the fact that a specific website has been accessed – and access data for the purpose of statistical analysis of website usage. Access data includes in particular the IP address, browser information, the website visited before and the date and time of the server request. “Google Analytics” is used with the “anonymizeIp()” extension. This shortens IP addresses before they are processed, in order to make it much more difficult to identify individuals. According to “Google”, the IP addresses are shortened beforehand within member states of the European Union.
