Web analytics tools

We need statistical information on the use of our online platforms in order to make them more user-friendly and to do market research.

We use the following web analytics tools for this. The browsing profiles created by these tools using analytics cookies or by evaluating the log files are not matched with the personal data. The tools either do not use users' IP addresses at all or abbreviate them as soon as they have been collected. The suppliers of the web analytics tools only process data on our behalf, in accordance with our instructions and not for their own purposes.

For each web analytics tool you will find its supplier and how you can stop the tool from collecting and processing your data. Please note that for tools that use opt-out cookies, the opt-out function is device- or browser-specific and only applies to the device and browser you are using at that moment. You can also completely prevent browsing profiles from being created by deactivating the use of any cookies.

We use Google Analytics with Google's "anonymize IP" feature. This means that Google truncates the IP address, normally within the EU, and in some exceptional cases, only when the data reaches the US. In any case, it only ever stores IP addresses in truncated form.
