Our websites use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small text files and do not cause any damage to your terminal device. If cookies are used by third-party companies or for analysis purposes, we will inform you about this separately and, if necessary, request your consent (e.g., via our cookie banner).

5. Analysis Tools and Advertising

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyze the behavior of website visitors. This involves collecting data such as page views, dwell time, operating systems used, and the origin of the user. This data is assigned to various end devices of the user. Furthermore, Google Analytics allows us to record, among other things, your mouse and scroll movements and clicks.

The use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR (Consent). Consent can be revoked at any time.

Browser Plugin: You can prevent the collection and processing of your data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

Amazon Associate Program

The operators of these pages participate in the Amazon EU Associates Program. On our pages, Amazon advertisements and links to the Amazon.de site (and other Amazon marketplaces) are integrated, through which we can earn money via advertising cost reimbursement.

Amazon uses cookies to trace the origin of the orders. The storage of “Amazon cookies” is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in determining affiliate remuneration).

6. Plugins and Tools

YouTube with Expanded Data Protection

This website embeds videos from YouTube. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in the expanded data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, the transfer of data to YouTube partners is not necessarily excluded by the expanded data protection mode.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
