4. Cookies
Our website uses cookies. These are small files that are automatically created by your browser and stored on your device (such as a laptop, tablet or smartphone) when you visit our website. Cookies do not damage your device and do not contain viruses, Trojan horses or other malware.
Cookies store information relating to the specific device being used. However, this does not mean that we obtain direct knowledge of your identity.
The use of cookies serves several purposes. Firstly, they make our website more user-friendly. For example, we use session cookies to recognise that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted when you leave our website.
In addition, we use temporary cookies to improve usability. These remain stored on your device for a defined period. If you return to our website, it will automatically recognise that you have visited us before and remember your previous entries and settings, so that you do not have to enter them again.
We also use cookies to statistically analyse the use of our website and to optimise our services for you (see Section 5). These cookies allow us to recognise returning visitors and are automatically deleted after a defined period.
The data processed through cookies is necessary for the purposes described above in order to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Most web browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or so that you receive a notification before a new cookie is placed.
Please note that completely disabling cookies may prevent you from using all the functions of our website.
Certainly. Since you’re replacing all of this with Complianz anyway, here’s a faithful English translation of Sections 5–9 of the existing German text.
5. Analytics Tools
a) Tracking Tools
The tracking measures listed below are carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The tracking tools we use are intended to ensure that our website is designed to meet users’ needs and is continuously optimised. They also enable us to statistically analyse the use of our website in order to improve our services. These purposes constitute legitimate interests within the meaning of the above provision.
The respective purposes of data processing and the categories of data processed can be found in the descriptions of the individual tracking tools below.
i) Google Analytics
For the purpose of tailoring our website to users’ needs and continuously improving it, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter referred to as “Google”).
In this context, pseudonymised user profiles are created and cookies (see Section 4) are used.
The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of this website, including:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL (the previously visited page)
- Host name of the accessing computer (IP address)
- Time of the server request
is transmitted to and stored on Google’s servers in the United States.
The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website and Internet usage for market research and the needs-based design of these Internet pages.
This information may also be transferred to third parties where required by law or where such third parties process the data on Google’s behalf.
Under no circumstances will your IP address be merged with other Google data. IP addresses are anonymised (IP masking), making personal identification impossible.
You can prevent the installation of cookies by adjusting your browser settings accordingly. However, please note that doing so may mean that not all functions of this website will be fully available.
You can also prevent Google from collecting and processing the data generated by the cookie relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser add-on available at:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
Alternatively, particularly when using mobile devices, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by clicking the corresponding opt-out link. An opt-out cookie will then be placed on your device to prevent future tracking. If you delete your browser cookies, you will need to set the opt-out cookie again.
Further information can be found in the Google Analytics Help Centre:
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245
ii) Google Ads Conversion Tracking
We also use Google Ads Conversion Tracking to statistically evaluate the use of our website and optimise our services.
If you arrive at our website via a Google advertisement, Google Ads places a cookie on your computer.
These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification.
If a user visits certain pages of our website before the cookie expires, Google and we can recognise that the user clicked on the advertisement and was redirected to our website.
Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie, meaning cookies cannot be tracked across different advertisers’ websites.
The information obtained via the conversion cookie is used solely to compile conversion statistics for Google Ads customers using conversion tracking. Advertisers receive only anonymous statistical information and no data that could personally identify users.
If you do not wish to participate in conversion tracking, you can disable cookies in your browser or block cookies from the domain www.googleadservices.com.
Google’s Privacy Policy regarding conversion tracking is available at:
https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html
iii) Matomo
We use the open-source web analytics software Matomo to analyse and statistically evaluate the use of our website.
Cookies (see Section 4) are used for this purpose.
The information generated by these cookies is transmitted to our own servers and compiled into pseudonymised usage profiles.
The information is used exclusively to analyse website usage and improve our website.
No information is passed on to third parties.
Your IP address is never linked to any other personal information and is anonymised (IP masking).
If you do not wish your visit to be analysed, you may opt out by following the instructions at:
https://matomo.org/docs/privacy/

8. Data Security
During your visit to our website we use the widely adopted SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption technology together with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser.
This is generally 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, 128-bit SSL technology will be used instead.
You can recognise whether a page is transmitted securely by the closed padlock icon displayed in your browser’s address or status bar.
We also employ appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or unauthorised access by third parties.
Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
