Google Analytics und Google Remarketing

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. Google Analytics uses “cookies,” which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website will generally be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

If IP anonymization is activated on this website, Google will shorten the IP address of users within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. IP anonymization is active on this website. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate the use of the website by users, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.

Hotjar Analytics

We use Hotjar to better understand our users’ needs and to optimize the content and user experience on this website. Hotjar’s technology gives us a better understanding of our users’ experiences (e.g., how much time users spend on which pages, which links they click, what they like and dislike, etc.), which helps us tailor our offerings to user feedback. Hotjar uses cookies and other technologies to collect data about user behavior and their devices, specifically the device’s IP address (which is only collected and stored in anonymized form during your website visit), screen size, device type (unique device identifiers), information about the browser used, location (country only), and preferred language for viewing our website.

Bing Universal Event Tracking (UET)

Our website uses Bing Ads technology to collect and store data, from which user profiles are created using pseudonyms. This is a service provided by Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA. This service allows us to track user activity on our website when users arrive via Bing Ads. When you access our website through such an ad, a cookie is placed on your computer. A Bing UET tag is integrated into our website. This is a code that, in conjunction with the cookie, stores certain non-personal data about website usage. This includes, among other things, the duration of your visit, which areas of the website were accessed, and which ad led you to the website. No information about your identity is collected.

The collected information is transferred to Microsoft servers in the USA and stored there for a maximum of 180 days.
