The add-on informs the JavaScript (ga.js) of Google Analytics that no website visit information should be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, the Google Analytics Disable Add-on does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or any other web analytics services we may use.

Our digital offer has so-called "social plug-in features" for the networks of Facebook, Twitter and Google+. To protect your privacy, we offer these social plug-ins as so-called "2-click buttons".
So-called "social plug-ins" are technologies that allow you as a user to make certain content known to members of social networks via a direct connection. In doing so, we make use of a technical solution that prevents data (e.g. IP address) from being opened to social networks, e.g. when opening our website. B. Facebook will be transmitted.
That is, the Facebook buttons (operated by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA), Twitter (Twitter, Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA) and Google (Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) are disabled by default.
Only by first clicking on the social plug-ins they are activated. The content of the plug-ins is transmitted by Facebook, Twitter and Google directly to your browser and incorporated by him into our website.
By clicking on the Social Plug-ins for the second time, you can fully use the functions such as "Tell a friend".
This activation will be saved in your browser for up to eight weeks. You can deactivate the function at any time by clicking on the individual buttons or by deleting the cookies in your browser.
