User profiles can be created from these data under a pseudonym. Cookies can be used for this purpose. Cookies are small text files that are saved temporarily by the website visitor's internet browser. Cookies enable the Internet browser to be identified.

Google-Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files stored on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.

Using Google AdWords Conversion Tracking
We use the online advertising program "Google AdWords" including Google AdWords Conversion Tracking, a tool used to analyze website traffic. When you click an ad delivered by a Google ad, a conversion tracking cookie is stored on your computer. These cookies expire after 30 days, do not contain personal data and cannot be used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, both Google and we recognize that you clicked the ad and proceeded to the selected page. Every Google AdWords advertiser is assigned a different cookie. This prevents tracking of cookies through the websites of different AdWords customers. The information gathered using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers, who have decided to activate conversion tracking. Google provides customers with information about the total number of users who clicked on the ad and proceeded to a page marked by a conversion tracking tag. Customers do not receive any information that can personally identify users. You can disable conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the following domain: "Googleadservices.com.” For more information on "Privacy" in the context of Google AdWords, follow this Link: www.google.de/privacy_ads.html.Using Google AdWords Conversion Tracking
