This data is temporarily stored in the log files of our system. Your IP address is not affected by this.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
Purpose of data processing
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the delivery of the website to your computer. For this purpose, your IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
The storage in log files ensures the proper functioning of the website. In addition, the data helps us optimize the website and ensure the security of our systems.
These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.
Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collection for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

Use of cookies
Description and scope of data processing
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies.” These are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website—such as browser type/version, operating system used, referrer URL (the previously visited page), hostname of the accessing computer (IP address), and time of the server request—is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. Additionally, we have extended Google Analytics on this website with the code “anonymizeIP.” This ensures that your IP address is masked, so that all data is collected anonymously. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide us with other services related to website and internet usage.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for processing personal data through the use of cookies is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest arises from the following purposes of data processing.
Purposes of data processing
The purpose of using cookies is to make the use of websites easier for users. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For these functions, it is necessary for the browser to be recognized even after navigating to a different page.
Additionally, the use of cookies serves to improve the quality of our website and its content. Through these “analysis cookies,” we learn how the website is used and can continuously optimize our offering.
Duration of storage, right to object and right to erasure
Cookies are stored on your computer and transmitted from it to our website. Therefore, as a user, you have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your web browser, you can disable or restrict the storage of cookies. Already stored cookies can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, some of its functions may no longer be fully available.
You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google, as well as the processing of this data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser add-on available at the following link: Browser Add-on to deactivate Google Analytics. As an alternative to the browser add-on—particularly for browsers on mobile devices—you can also prevent data collection by Google Analytics by clicking this link. This will install an opt-out cookie on your device. This cookie prevents data collection by Google Analytics for this website and this browser in the future, as long as the cookie remains installed in your browser.

If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.
