Our Website uses Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc., of Mountain View, CA 94043, U.S.A. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", small files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the Website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the Website (such as when you visited the Website, the referrer URL, details on the configuration of your operating system, your browser and your access provider) are generally transmitted to, and stored on, a server of Google located in the U.S.A. As we are using Google Analytics’ "_anonymizeIp()" function, your IP address will be shortened within members states of the European Union or in other states of the European Economic Area. It is only in exceptional circumstances that your IP address is transmitted to the U.S.A. and shortened there. Google will use the information on our behalf to analyze your use of the Website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide us with additional services related to the use of the Website as well as Internet use. The (shortened) IP address collected within the framework of Google Analytics will not be combined with other Google data. You can use your browser settings to prevent the acceptance and storage of new cookies.
