C. Website Analysis
We use Google Analytics and cookies, which allows us to analyse the traffic to and activity on our website and to improve its quality and content. The information obtained in the context of the statistical analysis of our website will not be merged with your other data collected in the context of the website.
Google AdWords: We use the online advertising program "Google AdWords" and conversion tracking as part of Google AdWords. Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States) ("Google"). When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is placed on your computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days, do not contain any personal data and are not used for personal identification.
If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognise that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie, which means it is not possible to track cookies on the websites of AdWords customers.
The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers can see the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, you will not receive any information with which users can be personally identified.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly (deactivate now or install browser plug-in available on http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en). Further information and Google's privacy policy can be found at: http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/, or https://policies.google.com.
Google Tag Manager: We use the Google Tag Manager on our website. Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows marketers to manage web page tags through a single interface. The Google Tag Manager service itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-less domain and does not collect any personal data. The Google Tag Manager service triggers other tags that may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, it will remain in effect for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.
Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics, which is a web analysis service. Google Analytics uses cookies, being text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website is usually transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on our website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other treaties of the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the United States and shortened there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services relating to website and Internet use to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. Our website uses Google Analytics with the extension "_anonymizeIp()". This shortens the processing of IP addresses and prevents direct personal contact. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of our website.
