14. Google Web-Fonts

This page uses so-called web fonts 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.

For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to Google’s servers. This enables Google to know that your IP address has been used to access our website. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online services. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font will be used by your computer.

15.Links to Other Websites

Our online offer may contain links to other websites. We have no influence on the operators of those websites adhering to the data protection regulations.

2a. Google reCAPTCHA Privacy Policy

Our primary goal is to ensure that our website is protected and secure for you and for us in the best possible way. In order to guarantee this, we use Google reCAPTCHA from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). With reCAPTCHA, we can determine if you are a flesh and blood person and not a robot or other spam software. By spam we mean any unsolicited information that we receive electronically. With the classic CAPTCHAS, you usually had to solve text or image puzzles to check them. With reCAPTCHA from Google, we usually don’t have to bother you with such puzzles. In most cases it is enough to simply tick the box and confirm that you are not a bot. With the new Invisible reCAPTCHA version you don’t even have to set a checkmark anymore. You can find out exactly how this works, and, above all, which data is used for it in the course of this data protection declaration.

What is reCAPTCHA?

reCAPTCHA is a free captcha service from Google that protects websites from spam software and abuse by non-human visitors. This service is most commonly used when you fill out forms on the Internet. A captcha service is an automatic Turing test designed to ensure that an action on the Internet is performed by a human and not by a bot. In the classic Turing test (named after the computer scientist Alan Turing), a human being makes a distinction between a bot and a human being. With Captchas, this is also done by the computer or a software program. Classic captchas work with small tasks that are easy for humans to solve but have considerable difficulties for machines. With reCAPTCHA you don’t have to actively solve any more puzzles. The tool uses modern risk techniques to distinguish people from bots. Here you only have to tick the text field “I am not a robot” or with Invisible reCAPTCHA even this is no longer necessary. With reCAPTCHA a JavaScript element is integrated into the source code and then the tool runs in the background and analyses your user behaviour. From these user actions, the software calculates a so-called captcha score. Google uses this score to calculate how high the probability is that you are a human being even before captcha input. ReCAPTCHA or captchas in general are always used when bots could manipulate or abuse certain actions (e.g., registrations, surveys, etc.).

Why do we use reCAPTCHA on our website?

We only want to welcome people of flesh and blood on our site. Bots or spam software of all kinds can stay at home. That’s why we do everything we can to protect ourselves and offer you the best possible usability. That’s why we use Google reCAPTCHA from Google. So we can be pretty sure that we will remain a “bot-free” website. By using reCAPTCHA, data is transmitted to Google, which uses Google to determine whether you are really a human being. reCAPTCHA therefore serves the security of our website and consequently also your security. For example, without reCAPTCHA it could happen that during registration a bot registers as many e-mail addresses as possible in order to subsequently “spam” forums or blogs with unwanted advertising content. With reCAPTCHA we can avoid such bot attacks.

Which data is stored by reCAPTCHA?

ReCAPTCHA collects personal data from users in order to determine whether the actions on our website actually originate from humans. The IP address and other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service can therefore be sent to Google. IP addresses are almost always truncated before they land on a server in the U.S. within the member states of the EU or other signatory states to the European Economic Area Agreement. The IP address will not be combined with any other data held by Google unless you are signed into your Google Account while using reCAPTCHA. First, the reCAPTCHA algorithm checks whether Google cookies from other Google services (YouTube, Gmail, etc.) have already been placed on your browser. Then reCAPTCHA places an additional cookie in your browser and captures a snapshot of your browser window.
The following list of collected browser and user data is not exhaustive. Rather, they are examples of data which, according to our knowledge, are processed by Google.
– Referrer URL (the address of the page from which the visitor comes)
– IP address (e.g., 256.123.123.1)
– Information about the operating system (the software that allows you to run your computer). Known operating systems are Windows, Mac OS X or Linux.)
– Cookies (small text files that store data in your browser)
– Mouse and keyboard behaviour (every action you perform with the mouse or keyboard is saved)
– Date and language settings (which language or which date you have pre-set on your PC is saved)
– All JavaScript objects (JavaScript is a programming language that allows websites to adapt to the user. JavaScript objects can collect all possible data under one name.)
– Screen resolution (shows how many pixels the image consists of)
There’s no doubt that Google uses and analyses this data before you click the “I’m not a robot” check mark. With the Invisible reCAPTCHA version even the ticking is omitted and the whole recognition process runs in the background. How much and which data Google stores exactly, you don’t get to know from Google in detail.
The following cookies are used by reCAPTCHA: Here we refer to the reCAPTCHA demo version of Google at https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/demo. All these cookies require a unique identifier for tracking purposes. Here is a list of cookies that Google has set on the reCAPTCHA demo version:

Note: This enumeration cannot claim to be complete, as experience has shown that Google changes the selection of its cookies time and again.

 

How long and where is the data stored?

By inserting reCAPTCHA, data is transferred from you to the Google server. Where exactly this data is stored, Google, even after repeated requests, is not clear. Without having received confirmation from Google, it can be assumed that data such as mouse interaction, time spent on the website or language settings will be stored on the European or American Google servers. The IP address that your browser transmits to Google is generally not merged with other Google data from other Google services. However, if you are logged into your Google Account while using the reCAPTCHA plug-in, the data will be merged. This is subject to Google’s different data protection regulations.

How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

If you do not want data about you and your behaviour to be transmitted to Google, you must completely log out of Google and delete all Google cookies before visiting our website or using the reCAPTCHA software. In principle, the data is automatically transmitted to Google as soon as you call up our site.
