This offer uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies and scripts that are stored on users' computers and which enable an analysis of their use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about the use of the website by the user is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, the IP address of Google's users within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area will be shortened beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

The Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If disabled at the domain or cookie level, it will remain disabled for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.

This website uses so-called web fonts, which are provided by Google, for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly.
