(1) Purpose of data processing
This website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google"). Google Analytics 4 uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. According to Google, Google Analytics 4 does not log or store individual IP addresses. No precise location data is provided in Analytics. Instead, the following metadata is derived from IP addresses: "city" (and the derived latitude and longitude of the city), "continent", "country", "region", "subcontinent" (and the ID-based equivalents). For accesses originating from the EU, IP addresses are only used to derive location data and are immediately deleted afterwards. They are not logged, are not accessible, and are not used for any other use cases. When collecting measurement data in Analytics, all IP searches take place on EU-based servers before the traffic is forwarded to Analytics servers for processing. These servers are also located outside the EU.We use the User ID function. This feature allows us to assign persistent IDs to sessions and thereby analyze user behavior across devices. The use of IDs does not involve the use of unauthorized personally identifiable information, and user IDs do not contain information that could be used by third parties to determine a user's identity. Based on the user IDs, we can create remarketing target groups. However, Analytics only collects the user ID and device ID for the last device associated with a logged-in user.On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity, and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.
(2) Legal basis
The legal basis for such processing is set out in Article 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR.
(3) Legitimate interest
Our legitimate interest is the statistical analysis of user behavior for optimization and marketing purposes. For your interest in data protection, this website uses Google Analytics with the extension "anonymizeIP()", so that the IP addresses are only processed in an abridged form in order to exclude direct personal reference.(4) Recipient categoriesGoogle and its partners.
(5) Transfer to a third country
Google Ireland Limited is an affiliate of Google LLC. Google LLC is based in the USA (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043). The basis for the transfer of personal data from the EU to the US is the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
(6) Duration of Storage

(8) Further cookie information
Name: _ga
Wert: 2.1326744211.152312691195-5
Usage: By default, analytics.js uses the _ga cookie to store the user ID. It is generally used to differentiate between website visitors.
Expiry date: after 2 years
Name: _gid
Wert: 2.1687193234.152312691195-1

Name: _gat_gtag_UA_
Value: 1
Purpose: Used to reduce the number of visits. If Google Analytics is provided via the Google Tag Manager, this cookie is given the name _dc_gtm_ .
Expiry date: after 1 minute
Note: This list is not exhaustive, as Google is constantly changing the selection of its cookies. The aim of GA4 is also to improve data protection. The tool therefore offers several options for controlling data collection. For example, we can determine the storage period ourselves and control data collection.
Here we give you an overview of the most important types of data that are collected with Google Analytics:
- Heatmaps: Google creates so-called heatmaps. Heatmaps show exactly the areas that you click on. This gives us information about where you "move" on our site.
- Session duration: Google defines session duration as the time you spend on our site without leaving it. If you are inactive for 20 minutes, the session is automatically ended.
- Bounce rate: A bounce is when you only view one page on our website and then leave it again.
- Account creation: If you create an account on our website or place an order, Google Analytics collects this data.
- Location: IP addresses are not logged or stored by Google Analytics. However, IP address derivations are used for location data shortly before the IP address is deleted.
- Technical information: Technical information includes your browser type, your internet service provider or your screen resolution.
- Source of origin: Google Analytics and we are of course also interested in which website or which advert brought you to our site.
Other data includes contact details, any ratings, the playing of media (e.g. when you play a video on our site), the sharing of content via social media or adding to your favourites. This list does not claim to be exhaustive and only serves as a general guide to data storage by Google Analytics.
Google has servers all over the world. You can find out exactly where Google's data centres are located here: https://www.google.com/about/datacenters
Your data is distributed across various physical data carriers. This has the advantage that the data can be accessed more quickly and is better protected against manipulation. Every Google data centre has appropriate emergency programs for your data. If, for example, Google's hardware fails or natural disasters paralyse the servers, the risk of service interruption at Google remains low.The storage duration of the data depends on the properties used. The storage period is always defined separately for each individual property. Google Analytics offers us four options to control the storage period:2 months: this is the shortest storage period.14 months: By default, GA4 stores the data for 14 months.26 months: You can also store the data for 26 months.
Data is only deleted when we delete it manually.There is also an option for the data to be deleted only if you no longer visit our website within the period we have selected. In this case, the retention period is reset each time you visit our website again within the specified period.After the specified period has expired, the data will be deleted once a month. This retention period applies to your data linked to cookies, user IDs and ad IDs (e.g. DoubleClick domain cookies). Reporting results are based on aggregated data and are stored independently of user data. Aggregated data is the combination of individual data into a larger unit.
