(3) Analysis Tool Matomo (formally Piwik)
To tailor the design of our website, we use the web analysis tool "Matomo", (http://matomo.org). The analysis of your surfing behavior is anonymous; the surfing behavior cannot be traced back to you. When storing the visitor data, in particular the IP addresses of the visitors are only stored in a shortened form or encrypted, so that it is not possible to identify individual visitors. We undertake never to combine collected data with other data, e.g. to create a personal reference.
IP address truncation is done as early as possible, automated by default, such that you do not have to make any special adjustments or configurations as a visitor. In this way, we provide you with the required privacy-friendly default settings (Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default).
Matomo cookies are stored on the basis of Art.6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the anonymous analysis of user behavior in order to optimize its website.

In this case, an opt-out cookie will be deposited in your browser that prevents Matomo from saving usage data. Deleting your cookies will result in deletion of the Matomo opt-out cookie as well. The opt-out must be reactivated when visiting our site again.
Please note: Deleting your cookies will also delete your deactivation cookie, which means you will have to save a new one.
