5. Analysis tools and advertising

Matomo

This website uses the open-source web analysis service Matomo. Matomo uses technologies that enable cross-site recognition of the user in order to analyse user behaviour (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Matomo on your use of this website is stored on our server. Your IP address is anonymised prior to storage.

Matomo enables us to collect and analyse data on the use of our website by website visitors. Among other aspects, this allows us to determine when which site was accessed and the region from which this access took place. We also collect various log files (e.g. IP address, referrer, browsers and operating systems used) and are able to measure whether our website visitors carry out certain actions (e.g. clicks, purchases, etc.).

This analysis tool is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the anonymised analysis of user behaviour in order to optimise both its website and its advertising.

This consent can be revoked at any time.

Hosting

We host Matomo exclusively on our own servers, with the result that all analysis data remain with us and are not forwarded.
