We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. A complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.

Matomo

This website uses the open source web analysis service Matomo.

With the help of Matomo, we are able to collect and analyse data about the use of our website by website visitors. This allows us to find out, among other things, when which pages were accessed and from which region. We also record various log files (e.g. IP address, referrer, browser and operating system used) and can measure whether our website visitors perform certain actions (e.g. clicks, purchases, etc.).

The information collected in this way is stored exclusively on our server, namely the following data:

The basis for data processing is consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

IP anonymisation

Our website uses Matomo with the setting „Anonymize the IP address of visitors“. This means that IP addresses are processed in abbreviated form, thus excluding the possibility of direct personal reference. The software is set so that the IP addresses are not stored completely, but 2 bytes of the IP address are masked (e.g. 192.168.xxx.xxx). In this way, it is no longer possible to assign the shortened IP address to the calling computer. The IP address transmitted by your browser via Matomo is not merged with other data collected by us.

You can prevent the evaluation by deleting existing cookies and deactivating a storage of cookies in the settings of your web browser. Please note that in this case you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

Matomo is an open source project of InnoCraft Ltd, 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand. Further information on data protection can be found in the privacy policy at: matomo.org/ privacy-policy/
