Analytics

Matomo: Matomo is a privacy-friendly web analytics software that operates without cookies and identifies recurring users using a "digital fingerprint," which is stored in an anonymized form and changes every 24 hours. The "digital fingerprint" captures user movements within our online offering using pseudonymized IP addresses in combination with user-side browser settings, making it impossible to draw conclusions about the identity of individual users. The data collected from users' use of Matomo is processed by us only and is not shared with third parties. Website: https://matomo.org/.
