Cookies are text files that are stored on your computer and enable your use of the website to be analyzed. Cookies usually transmit the information generated about your use of this website to a Google server in the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA). However, as this website uses IP anonymization, your IP address will be truncated by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. In exceptional cases, the full IP address is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. Google uses this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.
