Use of website analysis platform Matomo / Opt-Out possibility
We use the tool Matomo for the demand-oriented design of our Internet presence. This is a web analysis service. To record and analyse the use of our website, usage information is transferred to our server and stored for analysis purposes. Your IP address is only processed in a shortened form during this process and is thus made anonymous. If you wish to prevent the processing for analysis purposes, you can object to this at any time by clicking on the checkbox below. In this case a so-called Opt-Out-Cookie without usage data is stored in your browser, which has the consequence that Matomo does not collect any session data at all.
