Google Analytics makes use of "cookies", text files which are stored on your computer and enable the use of the website to be analysed. As a rule, the information relating to your use of this website generated by the cookie is transferred to a Google server in the USA, where it is saved. If IP address anonymisation has been activated on this website, Google will truncate your IP address within member states of the European Union or other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the owner of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your usage of the website, to compile reports on the website activities, and to perform further services relating to the use of the website and Internet for the website owner.
The purpose behind the use of the web analytics service is to analyse and make regular improvements to the use of our website. The statistics obtained enable us to improve our services and make them more interesting to you, our users.
