Among other things, the following is recorded: the website name, file, date, data quantity, web browser and web browser version, operating system, the domain name of your internet provide, the so-called referrer URL (the page you accessed our offering from) and the IP address.

Without these data, it would be technically impossible to deliver and display the contents of the website. Therefore, the recording of the data is absolutely necessary. Moreover, we use the anonymous information for statistical purposes. They help us with optimising our offering and technology. In addition, we retain the right to inspect log-files, if we have reasons to suspect that our offering has been used illegally.

These data are only recorded, used and where applicable passed on, if the legislator expressly permits this or users give their consent to the saving, usage and passing on of the data.

Comment function

If comments or other inputs are saved and published on our offering, we will save the IP address, user name and point of time of creation. This data is recorded for security reasons, as the provider can be prosecuted over illegal contents (illegal propaganda, insults, etc.), even if these were created by third parties. In such a case, the information will help to find out the author’s identity.

If a user of this offering subscribes to follow-up comments, they will receive a confirmation email. With this email, we are confirming that the user is the actual owner of the email address entered.

This data serves as evidence of misuse, if for example, another person’s email address was used to subscribe to the newsletter. In order to ensure that an email address was not entered in our mailing list by third parties for purposes of misuse, we use the lawful, so-called “double-opt-in” procedure. Within the context of this procedure, the order of the newsletter, the sending of the confirmation mail and the receipt of the subscription confirmation is recorded.

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and which allow the analysis of your use of our website. The information regarding your usage of this website provided by the cookie is generally transmitted and stored on a Google server in the USA. Due to the activation of IP anonymisation on these websites, your IP address is abbreviated prior to this by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other contracting member states of the agreement of the European Economic Area. In rare cases, the full IP address is transmitted to Google servers in the US and abbreviated there.
