Google AdSense
This website uses the Google AdSense service to integrate web ads from Google Inc. (“Google”). The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google AdSense uses so-called “Cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and make it possible for your use of the website to be analysed.

Google may pass this information on to its contracted partners. However, Google will not link your IP address with other data it stores.

For data processing processes that are not tied to your Google account (e.g. because you do not have a Google account or you have withdrawn the consent for such processing), the data is recorded based upon Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

If the user visits particular pages on this website and the cookie has not yet expired, both we and Google can identify that the user has clicked on the advert and was forwarded to that page.
Each Google AdWords customer has their own cookie. These cookies cannot be traced across different websites of AdWords customers.

These do not contain any information that can be used to personally identify the user. If you do not wish to participate in this type of tracking, you can easily disable it by deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie within your browser’s user settings. You will then not be included in conversion tracking statistics.
The storage of conversion cookies is based upon Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing the activities of users in order to optimise its web offering and advertising.

Using Hotjar's technology, we get a better understanding of our users' experiences (e.g. how much time users spend on which pages, which links they click on, etc.). This helps us to improve our services based on the feedback we receive from our users. Hotjar uses cookies and other technologies to collect data about the behaviour of our users and their devices, in particular the IP address of the device (only collected and stored anonymously during your use of the website), screen size, device type (unique device identifiers), information about the browser used, location (country only), preferred language for viewing our website.

We pay particular attention to the protection of your personal data when using this tool. For example, we can only track which buttons are clicked, mouse history, how far scrolled, device screen size, device type and browser information, geographic location (country only) and preferred language to display our website. Areas of the websites that display personally identifiable information about you or third parties are automatically hidden by Hotjar and are therefore not trackable at any time. The use of Hotjar and the associated processing of personal data takes place on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

Hotjar generally stores the customer data in the European Union. However, there may also be a transfer of personal data to third countries outside the EU and the EEA. In these cases, the implementation of further appropriate safeguards is necessary to ensure the level of data protection in accordance with the requirements of the GDPR. In order to guarantee this, we have agreed standard data protection clauses with the provider in accordance with Art. 46 Para. 2 lit. c GDPR. These oblige the recipient in the third country to process the data in accordance with the level of protection in the EU.

Hotjar offers every user the option of using a "Do Not Track header" to prevent the use of the Hotjar tool so that no data is recorded about the visit to the respective website. This is a setting that is supported by all common browsers in current versions. To do this, your browser sends a request to Hotjar with the information to deactivate the tracking of the respective user. If you use our websites with different browsers/computers, you must set up the "Do Not Track header" separately for each of these browsers/computers. You can prevent the use of Hotjar by going to the opt-out page https://www.hotjar.com/legal/compliance/opt-out and clicking “Disable Hotjar”.
