6. Storage of IP Addresses on this Website

For the purpose of optimising our website, certain data is automatically collected (date and time of access to the website, IP address and browser version).

When you access this website, your IP address is stored in log files. We use this information to evaluate the use of the site and thereby further optimise our website for you - in our database; these files are neither stored nor used in any way. The IP address is the worldwide valid, unique identification of a computer and consists of four digit blocks separated by dots. Most of the time, as a private user, you will not use a constant IP address, because your provider will assign it to you only temporarily for one session.

Nevertheless, in the case of static IP addresses, a clear assignment of user data is in principle possible via this characteristic. We can only link your IP address to your user data by "manual" research. We only resort to this in exceptional cases when we need to prevent abuse and fraud and deny access to individual IP addresses.
