6. Analysis-Tools

6.1. Google Analytics

Our website uses the web analysis service Google Analytics from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses cookies (see Cookies). These enable Google to analyze the use of our website offer including IP addresses in the USA. We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics was extended by the code "gat._anonymizeIp();" in order to guarantee an anonymous recording of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). If anonymization is active, Google shortens IP addresses within Switzerland and member states of the European Union or other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, which means that no conclusions can be drawn about your identity. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google complies with the data protection provisions of the "Swiss-USA Privacy Shield" agreement and therefore has an adequate level of data protection. Google uses the collected information to evaluate the use of our websites for us, to write reports for us in this regard and to provide us with other relevant services. You can find out more at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en, in particular, about the possibility of deactivating Google Analytics at http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

The legal basis for personal data processing is predominant legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 13 Para. 1 DSG and Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest lies in the fact that our websites are designed and constantly updated to meet the needs of our customers and website visitors and that the use of our website is statistically recorded and evaluated in order to optimize our services.

Plug-ins of the social network Facebook, which is offered by Facebook Inc., can be used on our website. The Facebook plug-ins are marked with a Facebook logo or the addition "Like" or "Share". An overview of the Facebook plug-ins and their appearance can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins.

When you access a page on our website that contains such a plug-in, your browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook's servers. The content of the plug-in is transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser and integrated into the page.

This integration provides Facebook with the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook profile or are not logged on to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.

If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can assign your visit to our website directly to your Facebook profile. If you interact with the plug-ins, for example by pressing the "Like" button, this information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on your Facebook profile and displayed to your Facebook friends.
