Each time a website is accessed, the web server merely automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of the retrieval, the amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the retrieval. These access data are exclusively evaluated for the purpose of ensuring a trouble-free operation of the site as well as the improvement of our offer. This serves to protect our predominantly legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our offer in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. All access data are processed as long as it is necessary for the purposes stated above.

We also use the extension function Google Optimize of Google Analytics to create and conduct tests. For the purpose of optimized marketing of our website, we use the so-called User-ID function. Using this function, we can assign a unique, permanent ID to your interaction data across sessions on our online presences and thus analyze your user behavior across devices and sessions. For web analysis, the cross-device tracking function Google Signals of Google Analytics enables cross-device tracking. If your internet-enabled devices are linked to your Google account and you have activated the setting "personalized advertising" in your Google account, Google can create reports about your usage behavior (especially the cross-device user numbers), even if you change your end device.
