The reduction of the IP address takes place within the European Union or within the European Economic Area. Only in individual cases, the IP address is transmitted unabridged to the USA to a Google server and shortened there. The user’s IP address provided by the browser will not be combined with other data stored by Google.

Google processes the collected data on our behalf and generates evaluations about the use and activity of our website. This helps us to evaluate and improve our services and our services on the Internet.
