Under no circumstances will the IP address be associated with other data relating to the user. We use an add-on for Google Analytics, with which the IP address of the Internet connection is shortened and anonymized by Google.

You can object to the collection by Google Analytics at any time. To do this, you need to download and install a browser add-on from the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de . This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data or information on website visits may be transmitted to Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated, it is possible to reinstall or reactivate it.
As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting data by clicking on this link (attention: the click does not generate any visible action) and thus setting an opt-out cookie . The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website. It will be stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you will also have to reset the opt-out cookie.
