To deactivate Google Analytics, Google provides a browser plug-in at https:\/\/tools.google.com\/dlpage\/gaoptout?hl=de. Google Analytics uses cookies. These are small text files that make it possible to store specific user-related information on the user&#8217;s device. These enable Google to analyze the use of our website. The information collected by the cookie about the use of our pages (including your IP address) is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended by the code &#8220;gat._anonymizeIp();&#8221; in order to ensure an anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). If anonymization is active, Google shortens IP addresses within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area, which is why no conclusions can be drawn about your identity. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google may associate your IP address with other Google data. For data transfers to the USA, Google has undertaken to sign and comply with the EU standard contractual clauses. .<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>6.2.<br \/>\nGoogle Maps <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>On our website we use Google Maps (API) from Google Inc.<br \/>\n(1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA;
