Web analysis
We use the statistical analysis tool “Matomo” (https://matomo.org/) to continuously improve our website. Matomo is an open source project. Information from the third-party provider on data protection can be found at matomo.org/privacy-policy. Matomo does not transmit any data to servers that are outside our control. Matomo is deactivated when you visit our website. Your usage behavior is only recorded anonymously if you actively consent to this.
Matomo uses so-called cookies. These are text files that are stored on your computer and enable us to analyze the use of our website. For this purpose, the usage information obtained by the cookie is transmitted to our server and stored so that usage behavior can be evaluated. Your IP address is immediately anonymized. You therefore remain anonymous as a user. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is not passed on to third parties.
We use Matomo on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We can use the statistics obtained to regularly improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user.
You may choose to prevent this website from aggregating and analyzing the actions you take here. Doing so will protect your privacy, but will also prevent the owner from learning from your actions and creating a better experience for you and other users.
