Matomo
We use the Matomo tool for the purpose of analyzing visitor flows on our website. We use the data and information collected to evaluate and improve the use of this website, among other things.
Matomo is a web analysis service. Among other things, a web analysis tool collects data about which website you came to a website from (so-called referrer), which subpages of the website you accessed, when and from which region, or how often and for how long you viewed a subpage. In addition, language settings on your end device, the type of end device, click behavior on the page (mouse and scroll movements) and certain predefined actions (so-called conversions) can be recorded.
Cookies are set on your end device to enable such an analysis of website usage. We store the information collected in this way exclusively on our servers in Germany.
We use Matomo with the “Automatically Anonymize Visitor IPs” function activated. This means that the IP addresses collected are shortened (so-called IP masking). A reference to specific persons can thus be excluded. The legal basis for the processing of data with the help of Matomo is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
Matomo is an open source project. You can find more information on data protection at: https://matomo.org/privacy-policy/
