‍Cookies are small files that your browser stores on your PC in a directory designated specifically for this purpose. These cookies can be used e.g. to find out whether you have already visited a website. Most browsers accept cookies automatically. Nevertheless, you can change the settings in your browser, so that no cookies can be stored or so that your explicit agreement is required before any cookies are stored. You can also delete previously set cookies at any time. Please note that disabling cookies may result in your use of our website being restricted.
We need cookies for the following purposes: statistical purposes and operation of the website.

‍Like almost all website operators, we use analytical tools in the form of tracking software to ascertain the number of users using our website and how frequently they visit.
This website uses “Google Analytics”, used to collect statistical data regarding this web service and to optimise the service accordingly. It is a statistics program which makes an anonymous or pseudonymised record of usage. Using Google Analytics enables us to undertake a pseudonymised analysis of user behavior by collecting and analyzing information transmitted from your browser. None of the analyses relate to people and they are conducted anonymously or pseudonymously, i.e. personal identification features are replaced by an indicator for this purpose, making it impossible, or at least extremely difficult, for the person concerned to be identified. The IP address is thus anonymized immediately after processing and prior to being saved. The use of Google Analytics also involves the installation of cookies. You can opt out of future data collection and storage by Google Analytics at any time by using the Cookie Consent module on the site.
