Google Maps
On our website we use the map service Google Maps (API) from Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”) to view our location.
Google is certified for “Privacy Shield” (https://www.privacyshield.gov/), which ensures compliance with the level of protection of personal data valid in the EU. When you enter the sub-sites where a map from Google Maps is integrated, our website sends various information including your IP address to Google in the USA where it is stored on their servers. If you have a user account at Google and are logged in there at the time of your visit to our website, the data is immediately assigned to your account. However, even without a user account Google creates a user profile about you. This happens regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in, or whether no user account exists.
The legal basis for processing data is Article 6 (1) 1 lit. F GDPR. Our transmission of data to Google is based on our legitimate interest to provide you with the map function from Google Maps on our website. You can prevent the allocation of the data transmitted by us to your user account by logging out of Google before you visit our website. To stop data from being transmitted to Google completely, you must disable the JavaScript application in your browser. The map display can then no longer be used.
