Google Analytics 4
This website uses Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland („Google“), which can be utilized to analyze the use of websites.
When using Google Analytics 4, so-called „cookies“ are used. The information collected by cookies about your use of the website (including the IP address transmitted by your terminal device, of which the last digits are shortened, see below) is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored and processed there. This may also result in the transmission of information to the servers of Google LLC, a company based in the USA, where the information is further processed.
When using Google Analytics 4, the IP address transmitted by your terminal device during your use of the website is always collected and processed automatically and by default only in a shortened form, so that a direct reference of the collected information to your person is excluded. This automatic anonymization is carried out by Google shortening the IP address transmitted by your terminal device within member states of the European Union (EU) or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA) by the last digits.
On our behalf, Google uses this and other information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports about your website activities and usage behavior, and to provide us with other services related to your website and internet usage. In this context, the shortened IP address transmitted by your terminal device in the context of Google Analytics 4 will not be merged with other data from Google. The data collected during the use of Google Analytics 4 will be retained for 2 months and then deleted.
Google Analytics 4 also enables the creation of statistics with statements about the age, gender, and interests of website users based on an evaluation of interest-based advertising and with the involvement of third-party information via a special function, the so-called „demographic characteristics“. This makes it possible to determine and distinguish between groups of website users for the purpose of targeted marketing measures. However, data collected via the „demographic characteristics“ cannot be assigned to a specific person and thus not to you personally. This data collected via the „demographic characteristics“ function is retained for 2 months and then deleted.
All processing described above, the placement of Google Analytics cookies for the storage and reading of information on the terminal device used by you for the use of the website, will only take place if you have given us your express consent for this in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 will not be used during your visit to the website.
As an extension of Google Analytics 4, the „UserIDs“ function is also used for this website. By assigning individual UserIDs, we can have Google create cross-device reports (so-called „cross-device tracking“). This means that your usage behavior can also be analyzed across devices if you have given your corresponding consent to the use of Google Analytics 4 in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR, if you have set up a personal account by registering on this website and are logged into your personal account on different end devices with your relevant login data. The data collected in this way shows, among other things, which end device was used to click on an ad for the first time and which end device was used for conversion.
We have concluded a so-called data processing agreement with Google for our use of Google Analytics 4, by which Google is obliged to protect the data of our website users and not to pass it on to third parties.
Since a transfer of personal data to the USA takes place, further protection mechanisms are required to ensure the level of data protection of the GDPR. To ensure this, we have concluded standard contractual clauses with the provider in accordance with Art. 46 Para. 2 lit. c GDPR. These oblige the recipient of the data in the USA to process the data in accordance with the level of protection in Europe. In cases where this cannot be ensured even through this contractual extension, we endeavor to obtain additional regulations and commitments from the recipient in the USA.
Further legal information on Google Analytics 4, including a copy of the aforementioned standard contractual clauses, can be found at the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=en
