Use of Google reCAPTCHA

This website uses the reCAPTCHA service offered by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). The query is used to distinguish whether an entry was made by a human or by automated machine processing. The query involves the submission of the IP address and, where applicable, other data required for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. For this purpose, your entry is sent to Google and used further there. However, your IP address is first truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the US and truncated there in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyze your use of this service. The IP address transmitted from your browser as part of the reCAPTCHA service will not be combined with other Google data. Your data may also be transmitted to the US.

By entering a response, you consent to your data being processed. The processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR with your consent.

Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are hereafter referred to as “Google”.

The resulting statistics enable us to improve our offering and make it more interesting for you as the user. This website also uses Google Analytics for a cross-device analysis of visitor flows, which is carried out via a user ID. If you have a Google user account, you can deactivate the cross-device analysis of your use of the website in the settings under “My Data”, “Personal Data”.

The full IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the US and truncated there in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyze your use of the website, to compile reports about website activities and to provide other services to the website operator related to the use of the website and the internet. In the exceptional cases where data is transmitted to the US, Google is subject to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Google Analytics uses cookies. The information collected by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the US and stored there. You can prevent the cookies from being stored by adjusting your browser settings; please note, however, that if you do so, you may not be able to make full use of all of the functionalities of this website.

Please note that if you delete all of the cookies on your device, you will also delete this opt-out cookie, i.e. you will have to set the opt-out cookie again if you want to continue to prevent this form of data collection. Opt-out cookies are set for each browser and computer/device and must therefore be activated separately for each browser, computer or other device.
