1.1.3 Website Analysis
Google Tag Manager
This Website uses GTM (Google Tag Manager) to initiate and control the connection to Google Analytics. It is used most of all to minimize administrative effort and to analyze reporting problems. The tool also triggers other tags that may themselves collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If you have disabled it at the domain or cookie level, it will remain in place for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager. These processing operations only take place if consent is granted through the consent management tool on this website in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR.Google Analytics
On our Website we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited (https://www.google.com/about/) (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter referred to as "Google"). Google will analyze your use of our website on our behalf. To this purpose we use, among others, the cookies described in more detail in the consent management tool on this website. The information collected by Google in connection with your use of our website (for example the referring URL, our webpages visited by you, your browser type, your language settings, your operating system, your screen resolution) will be transmitted to a server of Google in the USA, where it will be stored and analyzed. The respective results will then be made available to us in anonymized form. Your usage data will not be connected to your full IP address during this process. We have activated on our Website the IP anonymizing function offered by Google, which will delete the last 8 digits (type IPv4) or the last 80 bits (type IPv6) of your IP address.These processing operations only take place if consent is granted through the consent management tool on this website in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR. Your consent also covers the transfer of your personal data to the US as explained above.
You may revoke your consent to the use of web analysis at any time, either by downloading and installing the provided Google Browser Plugin or by administrating your consents in the consent management tool, in which case an opt-out cookie will be placed. Both options will prevent the application of web analysis only as long as you use the browser on which you installed the plugin and do not delete the opt-out cookie. Additional information on data protection with respect to Google Analytics is available on the Google Analytics website in the help section (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en)
Matomo
This website uses the web analysis software of Matomo (www.matomo.org).
This software enables us to collect and store data for statistical analysis of user behavior for purposes of optimization and marketing. For example, we can see in which sequence certain media content is selected, which webpage a user accesses after using the internal search function and how often a specific device is used to visit our website. Pseudonymous user profiles can be created and evaluated from these data for the same purpose.
We have configured the tool in a way that your IP address is anonymized. We do not create a User ID which would allow us to recognize a user across several devices. The information generated by the cookie in the pseudonymous user profile is not used to personally identify the website visitor and is not combined with personal data about the bearer of the pseudonym. If you do not agree to the storage and evaluation of these data on your visit, you can object to their storage and use at any time.
The data collected with Matomo technology (including your anonymized IP address) are processed entirely on our servers. The data is not shared with third parties and neither do we receive information on our visitors from third parties.
