This requires the provision of a valid email address, which we use to process and respond to your inquiry. The provision of any additional data is optional.

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a Google Inc. (hereafter: Google) web analysis service. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies," text files saved onto your computer that allow your use of the website to be analyzed. The information on your use of the website generated by the cookie is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA where it is saved. However, because IP-anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google in a European Union Member State or in another state party to the European Economic Area Agreement. Only in exceptions will your full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the US and shortened there. On behalf of the operators of this website, Google will use this information to assess your use of this website, to compile reports about website activity and to perform additional services related to use of the website and internet for the website operators. The IP address transmitted by your browser through Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Your data will be processed to assess the usage of and to compile reports on activity on our website. Further services will be provided based of the use of our website and the internet. Processing will be performed on the basis of the legitimate interests of the website operator.

You can prevent cookie storage through your browser settings at any time. However, please note that you may not be able to use every function on this website. You can also prevent the data (including your IP address) collected by the cookie on your use of the website from being collected and processed by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in provided under the following link: Browser add-on for disabling Google Analytics.

Additionally or as an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can prevent data collection by Google Analytics by activating the following link (German). This will install an opt-out cookie on your device which will prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics for this website and for your browser for as long as this cookie is installed on your browser.

Use of Adobe Analytics (Omniture)

This website uses Adobe Analytics, an Adobe Systems Software Ireland Limited ("Adobe") web analysis service. Adobe Analytics uses so-called "cookies," text files saved onto your computer that allow your use of the website to be analyzed. If a tracking dataset is transmitted to the Adobe Data Center by the browser of a visitor to our website, the preset server settings will ensure anonymization of the IP address, i.e., the last octet of the IP address will be replaced with zeros, prior to geolocalization. Before saving the tracking package, the IP address will be replaced by a generic IP address.

On behalf of the operators of this website, Adobe will use this information to assess your use of this website, to compile reports about website activity and to perform additional services related to use of the website and internet for the website operators. The IP address transmitted by your browser through Adobe Analytics will not be merged with other Adobe data.

You can prevent cookie storage through your browser settings at any time. However, please note that you may not be able to use every function on this website.
