IV. Integration of Google Maps

On the basis of Art. 6, para. 1, lit. f GDPR we use the service Google Maps (API) of Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”) on our website to enable our customers to locate our site quickly. This is done for the purpose of enhancing our customer relationships. Its provider Google is responsible for operating in compliance with data protection.

When you call up respective sub-sites where the Google Maps card is imbedded, information about the use of our website (e.g. your IP address) is transferred to Google servers and stored there. This takes place irrespective of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged-in to or if no account exists. If you are logged-in at Google your data are directly matched with your account. In case you do not wish the matching with your profile at Google, you have to log-out before using Google Maps. Google saves your data as user profiles (even for users that are not logged-in) and analyses them. Such analysis takes place in particular pursuant to Art. 6 para 1, lit. f GDPR on the basis of Google’s legitimate interests in the insertion of personalised advertising, in market research and/or in the appropriate design of its website.

If you do not agree to the future transfer of your data to Google when using Google Maps you may completely deactivate the web service of Google Maps by switching off the application JavaScript in your browser. As a result, Google Maps and the map display on this website cannot be used. Google’s terms of use are available at www.google.de/intl/en/policies/terms/regional.html, the additional terms of use of Google Maps at www.google.com/intl/en US/help/terms maps.html.
