If you want to prevent the processing of your personal data by Google Analytics, you also have the option to install the browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics.

If you want to deactivate Google Analytics, please access the page identified below and install the add-on to deactivate Google Analytics for your browser. Detailed information concerning the installation and deinstallation of the add-on can be found in the relevant help resources for your browser.

Browser and operating system updates may cause the deactivation add-on to no longer work as intended. For more information concerning the administration of add-ons for Chrome can be found on the pages specified below. If you do not use Chrome, please obtain the respective information directly from the manufacturer of your browser to determine whether the add-ons in the browser version you are using work properly.

The latest versions of Internet Explorer will occasionally load the add-on required for the deactivation of Google Analytics after personal data has already been transmitted to Google Analytics. If you are using Internet Explorer, this will result in the installation of cookies on your computer by the add-on. These cookies ensure that any and all recorded data is deleted immediately by the server that has recorded the data. Please make sure that the third-party provider cookies are not deactivated for use with Internet Explorer. If you delete your cookies, these cookies will be promptly removed by the add-on to ensure that your Google Analytics browser add-on continues to work without any limitations.

The browser add-on used to deactivate Google Analytics will not prevent personal data from being transmitted to the website or other tracking services.

More information on the terms and conditions of use as well as data privacy is available at:
