Data Processing for Google Analytics™

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the responsible entity for data processing via this website has its headquarters outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, the relevant Google Analytics data processing is carried out by Google LLC. (Google Ireland Limited and Google LLC are hereinafter referred to as "Google.") Data processing when connecting this website to Google Analytics is carried out by Jimdo. Please see here for Jimdo's privacy policy and here for the privacy policy of KDDI Web Communications, which provides Jimdo in Japan.
Google Analytics uses "cookies," which are text files stored on site visitors' computers, to help analyze website usage. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your truncated IP address) is generally transmitted to and stored by Google.
Google Analytics is used exclusively on this website with the extension "_anonymizeIp()". This extension ensures the anonymization of IP addresses through truncation and excludes any direct personal reference. This extension allows Google to truncate site visitors' IP addresses within Member States of the European Union or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional circumstances will the site visitor's full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. The IP address provided by the site visitor's browser when using Google Analytics will not be merged by Google with other Google data.
On behalf of the website operator, Google will use the collected information to evaluate the use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other website and internet related services to the website operator (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Our legitimate interest in data processing lies in optimizing this website, analyzing website usage, and adapting the content. Your interests are adequately protected by data pseudonymization.
Google undertakes to maintain an adequate level of data protection based on European standard contractual clauses. Data sent to and linked to Google Analytics cookies (such as user IDs and advertising IDs) is automatically deleted after 50 months. Data that has reached the retention period is automatically deleted once a month.
Site visitors can refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in their browser. Site visitors can also prevent Google from collecting information via cookies (including IP addresses) and processing this information by installing the following browser plug-in: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
Site visitors can prevent data collection via Google Analytics on this website by clicking cookie settings. An opt-out cookie will then be applied, preventing site visitor data from being collected in the future when they visit this website.
For more information on the Google Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, please see the Google Analytics Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Under the GDPR and related laws, site visitors have certain rights regarding the data processed by Google Analytics, in particular the right to data access, rectification, data portability, and deletion. Site visitors also have the right to object to certain data processing. To exercise these rights regarding Google Analytics on this website, data subjects (site visitors) can contact Jimdo or the website operator at any time.
