Goodle Adsense

What is Google Adsense?
Google Adsense is part of an advertising platform that belongs to Google and allows us to include advertising on our website as an online marketing measure. In order to match the content of the websites and the advertisers’ ads, the advertising is divided into individual categories and selected on the basis of this. The personal profiles and surfing behavior of the users are then used to display interest-related advertising on the respective pages.
This means that advertising can be targeted to specific groups. Based on the number of users who then see or interact with the respective advertising, we generate revenue to continue to finance the project.

Google Adsense uses cookies that are stored in the browser and analyze data during use. The analysis of clicks on ads is done via web beacons. Data is transmitted to Google – this may also involve servers in the USA. Collected information from Google can be passed on to third parties.
You can disable personalized ads by selecting only the essential cookies above.

Collection and storage of usage data

To optimize our website, we collect and store data such as the date and time of the page view, the page from which you accessed our site, and the like. This is done anonymously, without personally identifying the user of the site. If necessary, user profiles are created by means of a pseudonym. Here, too, there is no connection between the natural person behind the pseudonym and the usage data collected. We also use cookies to collect and store usage data. These are small text files that are stored on your computer and are used to store statistical information such as operating system, your Internet usage program (browser), IP address, the previously accessed website (referrer URL) and the time. We collect this data exclusively for statistical purposes in order to further optimize our Internet presence and to make our Internet offers even more attractive. The collection and storage of this data takes place exclusively in anonymized or pseudonymized form and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about you as a natural person.
