a) Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to analyze user behavior. Cookies are used to enable statistical evaluations. The information generated by the cookies about your use of the website is generally transmitted to Google servers in the USA and stored there.

Our website uses Google Fonts to ensure consistent font rendering. The fonts are generally loaded from Google servers, which may result in your IP address being transmitted to Google.
