Use of a newsletter
As part of the registration to our newsletter, you provide us with your e-mail address and optional additional data. We use this information exclusively to send you the newsletter. Your data provided during the newsletter registration process remains with us until you unsubscribe from our newsletter. It is possible to unsubscribe at any time by using the link provided in the newsletter or by sending us a separate email. By unsubscribing, you deny us the right to use your e-mail address.
In addition, we use your e-mail address, which we receive in connection with the other
communications we send out informing the members of our activities unless you have
expressly objected to this type of usage. You may object to the use of your e-mail address at
any time. Your objection (and thus the cancellation of our newsletter) can be submitted to us by sending an appropriate message by email.
Use of Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. („Google“). Google Analytics uses so-called „cookies“, i.e. text files that are stored on your computer and that allow for an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The complete IP address will only be sent to a Google server in the United States in exceptional circumstances and then shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google
will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address provided by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent the storage of cookies by using the respective settings in your browser; however, please note that you may not be able to use all the features of this website if you decide to do so. In addition, you may prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie that is related to your use of the website (including your IP address) as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link. Related to the discussion about the use of analysis tools with complete IP addresses, we would like to point out that this website uses Google Analytics with the extension „_anonymizeIp ()“, therefore IP addresses are only processed in a shortened form to rule out a direct personal reference. For browsers on mobile devices, you can click this link to prevent the anonymous collection by Google Analytics on this website by means of a so-called „opt-out cookie“.
Use of own cookies
This website uses its own cookies to enhance user-friendliness („cookies“ are data records sent by the web server to the user’s browser for later retrieval). Our cookies do not store any personal data. You can generally prevent the use of cookies by prohibiting the storage of cookies in your browser. Please find more information about our cookies here.
Google Web Fonts
This website uses Google Web Fonts. When you access the page, fonts are retrieved from an external Google server in the United States to make the page more visually appealing when it is shown in your browser. Unfortunately, it is currently unknown whether Google logs this server request and continues to use the collected data. However, it can be assumed that the Google privacy policies apply. This means that your IP address will be stored for several months.
Fonts.net
On our site, JavaScript code is downloaded from Monotype Inc., Monotype, 600 Unicorn Park Drive, Woburn, MA 01801, USA (Fonts.net). This code is used to represent fonts. If you have activated JavaScript in your browser and have not installed a Java Script Blocker, your browser may transfer personal data to Fonts.net.
