This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (hereinafter: Google). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymization on these web pages, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing 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 data from Google.
The purposes of data processing are to evaluate the use of the website and to compile reports on website activities. Based on the use of the website and the Internet, other related services shall then be provided. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of the website operator.
You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

REMOVAL OF SCRIPT LIBRARIES (GOOGLE WEBFONTS)
In order to display our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries such as Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) on this website. Google Web Fonts are transferred to your browser’s cache to avoid multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Web Fonts or prevents access, content is displayed in a standard font.
Calling up script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible – although it is currently also unclear whether and, if so, for what purposes – that operators of corresponding libraries collect data.
The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

We embed YouTube videos on some of our websites. The operator of the corresponding plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube servers is established. This tells Youtube which pages you are visiting.

If a Youtube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior.
If you have deactivated the storage of cookies for the Google Ad program, you will not have to deal with such cookies when watching Youtube videos.

Further information on data protection at “Youtube” can be found in the provider’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/
GOOGLE ADS
Our website uses Google conversion tracking. If you have reached our website via an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set on your computer by Google Adwords. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize 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 across AdWords customers’ websites. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. The customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.
If you do not wish to participate in the tracking, you can refuse the setting of a cookie required for this – for example, by means of a browser setting that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies or by setting your browser so that cookies from the domain “googleleadservices.com” are blocked.
Please note that you may not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not want any measurement data to be recorded. If you have deleted all your cookies in the browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.
SOCIAL MEDIA
We maintain online presences on social networks and career platforms in order to exchange information with the users registered there and to be able to contact them in an uncomplicated manner.
In some cases, the data of users on social networks is used to conduct market research and thus pursue advertising purposes. User profiles can be created via the usage behavior of users, for example by specifying interests, and used to adapt advertisements to the interests of target groups. For this purpose, cookies are regularly stored on the end devices of the users, partly regardless of whether you are a registered user of the social network.
In connection with the use of social media, we also use the associated messengers in order to be able to communicate with users in an uncomplicated manner. We point out that the security of individual services may depend on the account settings of the user. Even in the case of end-to-end encryption, the service provider can draw conclusions about the fact that and when users communicate with us as well as collect location data if necessary.
Depending on where the social network is operated, user data may be processed outside the European Union or outside the European Economic Area. This may result in risks for users, for example because it may be more difficult to enforce their rights.
Categories of data subjects: registered users and non-registered users of the social network.
Categories of data: master data (e.g., name, address), contact data (e.g., e-mail address, telephone number), content data (e.g., textual information, photographs, videos), usage data (e.g., websites visited, interests, access times), meta and communication data (e.g., device information, IP address).
Purposes of processing: extension of reach, networking.
Legal basis: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO), consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO).
