- the user’s location calculated from the anonymized IP-address
- the used browser and, if applicable, the operating system of your computer as well as the name of your access provider
- your display resolution
- your device’s brand
In no case the complete IP address is associated with other data relating to the user. The IP addresses are anonymized so that an allocation is not possible (IP masking).

Matomo runs exclusively on our website’s server. The information is not passed on to a third party.

The user's email address and the data collected during the double opt-in (IP address, date and time of registration) are stored as long as the subscription to the newsletter is active. Other personal data collected in the course of the registration process will generally be deleted.

The subscription to the newsletter can be canceled by the respective user at any time. There is a corresponding link in each newsletter.
