This includes data such as your name or email address, which lets us make the service in question quick and user-friendly, or lets us provide the service in general.

1.2.2 Cookies
Cookies are small files containing a string of characters which store certain information in plain text or encrypted form. Cookies are sent by the server to your computer, where they are stored. Their primary purpose is to identify the computer from which a website has been accessed. If you sign on to a website, cookies are used to notify the server of the sign-on and check the permissions for accessing the page. Every cookie has an expiry date, after which it is no longer valid. The user’s path through various pages of the website and even across various websites can be tracked using cookies. By using cookies, we can improve communication between our server and your computer, thus making it easier to use a website. Cookies can be generated by both the website operator and third-party providers.
Your browser gives you the option of displaying the cookies which exist on your computer, deleting existing cookies, or configuring the settings so that not all, or no further, cookies are stored. Please be aware that some functions will not work, or will not work properly, if you block cookies.
1.2.3 Usage analysis
1.2.3.1 Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), or Google for short. Google Analytics uses text files known as cookies. These cookies are saved on your computer and produce information about your use of our website.
This information is sent for storage on a Google server in the USA. IP address anonymisation is active on this website, meaning that your IP address is shortened by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before it is sent. The full IP address is only sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases.
Google uses the information produced to create analyses and reports on website usage and activity on behalf of Kammerer GmbH and in order to render additional services relating to the use of the website and the internet for Kammerer GmbH. In particular, this involves functions relating to display advertising such as Google Analytics service reports, categorised according to demographic characteristics and interests. Google Analytics service reports categorised according to demographic characteristics and interests include data and third-party provider visitor data (such as age, gender and interests) acquired through targeted advertising by Google. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required by law or insofar as third parties process this data on behalf of Google.
The IP address relayed by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics is not linked to other Google data. You can prevent the use and storage of cookies by changing your browser software’s settings accordingly. However, please bear in mind that you may not be able to make full use of all the functions on this website if you do so.

On our website the plugins are recognisable by the respective companies’ logos or the „Like“ or „Recommend“ add-ons, for example. When you visit one of our websites which contains this type of plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection with the relevant company’s servers, and the content of the plugin is, in turn, transmitted to your browser, which incorporates it into the website being displayed. This is how the fact that you have visited our website is passed on to these companies. Provided that you are logged in to these companies’ sites via your personal user account when you visit our website, they can associate the website visit with that account. By interacting with plugins, e.g. by clicking on the „Like“ button or leaving a comment, this related information is sent directly to these companies and stored on their systems. If you would like to prevent this sort of data being sent, you need to log out of your account at the company in question before visiting our website.
