Reach measurement is used to evaluate visitor flows to our online offerinc and may include behavior, interests, or demographic information about visitors, such as age or gender, as pseudonymous values. With the help of reach analysis, we can, for example, identify when our online offering or its functions or content are most frequently used or encourage revisits. Likewise, we can understand which areas require adjustment.

You can find out which tools we use for reach measurement below under section 3.3.7.

3.3.7 Tools used for reach measurement

We use the locally installed analysis tool Matomo (formerly Piwik) for reach measurement without cookies. With the help of this tool, we evaluate user behavior locally on the server. Matomo does not collect the data itself, but uses the data provided by the web server. Each requesting IP address is truncated before storage. This means that the database is sufficiently anonymized and no conclusions can be drawn about individual persons.

4. Information about your right of objection under Art. 21 GDPR

4.1 Case-specific right of objection

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (data processing based on a balance of interests), for reasons arising from your particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on this provision within the meaning of Art. 4 No. 4 GDPR.

If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
