Cookies and traffic reports

We use "session cookies" from VG Wort, Munich, to measure access to texts in order to record the probability of copying. Session cookies are small pieces of information that a provider stores in the memory of the visitor's computer. A randomly generated unique identification number, a so-called session ID, is stored in a session cookie. A cookie also contains information about its origin and the storage period. Session cookies cannot store any other data. These measurements are carried out by Kantar Deutschland GmbH according to the Scalable Central Measurement Method (SZM). They help to determine the copy probability of individual texts to compensate authors and publishers for legal claims. We do not collect any personally identifiable information through cookies.

Many of our pages contain JavaScript calls, which we use to report access to the collecting society Wort (VG Wort). We thus enable our authors to participate in the distributions of the VG Wort, which ensure the legal remuneration for the use of copyrighted works in accordance with § 53 UrhG.

A use of our offers is also possible without cookies. Most browsers are set to automatically accept cookies. However, you can deactivate the storage of cookies or set your browser so that it notifies you as soon as cookies are sent.

Data protection declaration for the use of the scalable central measurement method

Our website and our mobile website use the "Scalable Central Measurement Method" (SZM) from Kantar Deutschland GmbH to determine statistical parameters to determine the copy probability of texts.

Anonymous measurements are collected. The access number measurement alternatively uses a session cookie or a signature, which is created from various automatically transmitted information from your browser, to recognize computer systems. IP addresses are only processed in an anonymous form.

The process was developed with data protection in mind. The only aim of the procedure is to determine the copy probability of individual texts.

At no time individual users are identified. Your identity is always protected. You will not receive any advertising through the system.
