When you return to our website to use our services, you will automatically be recognized, as will any settings or information you carried out during your previous visit(s).

This website uses Google Analytics, a service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses cookies (see the “Cookies” section). It allows Google to analyse use of our website offering including IP address. This analysis takes place in the USA. Please note that the use of Google Analytics on this website has been extended to include the “gat._anonymizeIp();” code to ensure that gathering of IP addresses is anonymized (so-called IP masking). Activation of the IP anonymization function means that Google truncates IP addresses within European Union member states or other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, making it impossible to identify you personally. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. Google complies with the data protection regulations of the “Swiss-USA Privacy Shield” agreement, thus ensuring an adequate level of data protection. Google uses the information collected to evaluate use of the website on our behalf; to compile corresponding reports for us and to provide us with other services relating to this analysis. For more information visit https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en and for specific information on how to deactivate Google Analytics visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en .
