5. Use of cookies
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are data that is saved on the user’s computer system by the internet browser. The cookies can be communicated to a website when accessed, thereby enabling the identification of the user. Cookies help to facilitate the use of a website for the users.
It is possible to reject the use of cookies by changing your browser settings accordingly. Any cookies that have already been installed can be deleted. However, we would like to bring to your attention that if you deactivate cookies, you might not be able to use all of the functions of our website in their full scope.
6. Web Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Inc. (Google). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are saved on your computer, which enable the analysis of your use of the website. The information collected by the cookie, regarding your use of the site is usually sent to a Google server in the USA, where it is saved. However, within member states of the European Union and other countries that are contracted into the European Economic Community agreement, your IP address will be shortened in advance if you activate the IP anonymisation on this website. Only in certain exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA, where it is shortened then. On behalf of the operator, Google uses this information to assess your use of the website, to compile reports regarding website activity, and to perform other services for the operator of the site, relating to the use of the website and the internet.
This website uses Google Analytics with the add-on “_anonymizeIp()”. The IP addresses are, as a result of this, further processed in shortened form, making it impossible to allocate them directly to specific people.
The IP address that is transmitted by your browser within the context of Google Analytics is not combined with any other data from Google.
You can prevent cookies from being saved by adjusting your browser software settings accordingly; however, we would like to bring to your attention that in some cases, if applicable, you might not be able to use the full scope of the functions of this website.
Furthermore, you can prevent Google from capturing the data generated by the cookie, relating to your use of the website (incl. your IP address), and the processing by Google, by downloading and installing the plug-in available via the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
Google Analytics is used as per the conformities contained in the agreement between the German Data Protection Authority and Google.

7. Use of Social Media Plug-ins
7.1 Social media plug-ins used
Currently, we use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Xing, Pinterest, Google+, and YouTube. For this, we use the so-called two-click solution; this means that when you visit our website, in principle, no personal data will initially be passed to the provider of the plug-in. You will recognise the providers of the plug-ins based via their logo or by the mark above the first letter of their name. We provide you with the opportunity to communicate directly with the plug-in provider, via the respective button. The plug-in provider will receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding website relating to our online offer only if you click on the selected field, thereby activating it. Furthermore, additional personal data relating to you will be transmitted to the respective plug-in providers and stored there (in the case of US American providers, in the US). Because the plug-in providers mainly use cookies to capture data, we recommend that you delete all the cookies on your computer via the browser security settings, before clicking on the grey field.
We have neither influence on what data that is captured nor how the information is processed. Furthermore, we do not know the full scope of the data gathered, the purposes for processing, or the data retention periods. We also have no information regarding the deletion of the data captured by the plug-in provider.
The plug-in provider saves your captured data in the form of a user profile and uses it for advertising, market research and needs-based organisation of their website. This form of assessment is used, in particular, for the presentation of needs-appropriate advertising (also for users who are not logged in), and also serves to inform other users of the social network regarding your activities on our website. You are entitled to object to the creation of these user profiles. However, please contact the plug-in provider to do so. Via the plug-ins, we offer you the opportunity to interact with the social networks but also with other users, which enables us to improve our offer and give it a more exciting design for you, the user. The legal basis for the use of plug-ins is Section 6(1) letter f of the GDPR.
The data is transmitted, regardless of whether or not you have an account with the plug-in provider and whether or not you have logged in. If you have logged into the plug-in provider, your data, which we have captured, will be assigned directly to your existing account with the plug-in provider. If you click on the activated button and link the page, for example, the plug-in provider will also save this information in your user account and share it openly with your contacts. We recommend that you log out of social networks regularly, in particular, before activating any buttons. This way, you can prevent the plug-in provider from allocating your activities to your profile.
