Use of Google Analytics with anonymization function

This allows data, sessions, and interactions across multiple devices to be assigned to a pseudonymous user ID, enabling the analysis of a user's activities across devices.
Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies," text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of
this website is generally transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google
beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be
transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. We would like to point out that Google Analytics has been extended on this website to include IP anonymization in order to ensure
the anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
