Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Google AdWords

This website uses the online advertising programme "Google AdWords" and, as part of this, conversion tracking. The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an advert placed by Google. These cookies lose their validity after 45 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognise that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their advert and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users. Users who do not wish to participate in tracking can easily deactivate the Google conversion tracking cookie via their Internet browser under user settings. These users are not included in the conversion tracking statistics. Find out more about Google's privacy policy.


Privacy policy for Google Analytics and Google Remarketing

Google complies with the data protection provisions of the "US Safe Harbor" agreement and is registered with the "Safe Harbor" programme of the US Department of Commerce.

Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.
