A web analytics is mainly used to optimize a website and to analyze the costs and benefits of Internet advertising.

The purpose of Matomo is to analyze the flow of visitors to our website. The controller uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website in order to compile online reports showing the activities on our pages.

Our Matomo software is set in such a way that neither cookies are set nor personal data is stored (e.g. IP addresses are anonymized). We do not pass on any of the data collected by Matomo to third parties.

Furthermore, the data subject has the option to object to and prevent collection by Matomo on our website. To do this, the data subject must either activate the "Do Not Track" setting in your browser or use the opt-out setting at the bottom of this page.
