Information on Data Processing with Respect to Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the data controller for data processing on this website is located outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, the data processing for Google Analytics is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are collectively referred to as “Google” below. When using Google Analytics, the data processing is technically provided by Jimdo. Therefore, please refer to Jimdo’s Data Protection Information. Regarding Google Analytics, both Jimdo GmbH (Jimdo GmbH, Stresemannstrasse 375, 22761 Hamburg, Germany Datenschutz@jimdo.com) and the operator of this website are responsible for data processing on this website.
Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies,” text files that are saved on the device used to enable an analysis of the user’s website usage. The information collected through cookies about the use of this website is normally transferred to a Google server and stored there.
Google Analytics is used on this website exclusively with the extension “_anonymizeIp()”. This extension ensures that the IP address, processed in shortened form, is anonymized, thus excluding any direct personal reference. Through the extension, the IP address is shortened in advance by Google within the member states of the European Union or other states adhering to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The IP address transmitted by the browser in the context of Google Analytics will not be associated with other Google data.
On behalf of Jimdo and the operator of this website, Google uses this information to analyze the use of the website, to create reports on website activities, and to provide Jimdo and the website operator with other services related to the use of the website and the Internet (Art. 6 para. 1 letter. f GDPR). The legitimate interest in data processing is to optimize this website, analyze website usage, and adapt content, made possible by the statistical functions provided by Jimdo. User interests are adequately safeguarded by pseudonymization.
Google is certified under the so-called Privacy Shield (list entry here), whereby it guarantees an adequate level of data protection. Data sent and linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g., user ID), or advertising IDs are automatically deleted after 50 months. The deletion of data whose storage period has expired occurs automatically once a month.
Users can prevent the collection through Google Analytics by adjusting the cookie settings for this website. The collection and storage of IP address and data generated by cookies can also be prevented at any time for the future.
