However, the dispatch service provider will not use the data of our Newsletter recipients to write to them or to pass on the data to third parties.
Newsletter - performance measurement
The Newsletters contain a so-called “web-beacon”, i.e., a pixel-sized file, which is retrieved from our server when the Newsletter is opened, or, if we use a dispatch service provider, from that provider’s server. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval are collected initially.
This information is used for the technical improvement of the services on the basis of the technical data or the target groups and their reading behaviour based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the time of access. Statistical surveys will also provide the information of whether the Newsletters are opened, when they are opened, and which links are clicked. It is true, that based on technology, this information can be assigned to the individual Newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our intention nor that of the dispatch service provider, if we use one, to watch individual users. Rather, such analyses allow us to recognise the reading patterns of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send out different information adjusted to the interests of our users.

On the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e., interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of point (f) of Art. 6(1) GDPR), we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC (“Google”).

Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our online offer by users, to compile reports on the activities within this online offer and to provide us with other services associated with the use of this online offer and Internet use. In doing so, pseudonymous user profiles of the users can be created from the processed data.

Use of Matomo
Matomo is used on our website to analyze the usage behavior of our visitors. Matomo collects, among other things, data from which website a data subject has come to our website, which subpages of the website have been accessed, the time spent on a website or the frequency of access to the website.
the length of time spent on a website or the frequency with which the website is accessed.
Your IP address through which you access our website is anonymized. Matomo is set so that 2 bytes of the IP address are masked (ex: 192.168.xxx.xxx). In this way, an assignment of the shortened IP address to the calling computer is no longer possible.
Matomo uses text files (so-called "cookies"), which are stored in your web browser. To analyze website usage, the usage information stored in the cookie is transferred to our computers. This data is stored exclusively on servers of the University of Freiburg. The stored usage data is not passed on to third parties. This data is not combined with any other stored data, as is the case when other offers are used in conjunction with the provision of personal data.
The analysis of the usage behavior of our visitors helps us to optimize our offers and to improve the user-friendliness of the website. Here lies our legitimate interest in the processing of the data according to Art. 6 para. 1 (f) DSGVO.
By anonymizing the IP address, the interest of users in the protection of their personal data is sufficiently taken into account.
You can generally prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate browser settings; however, we would like to point out that this may prevent the full use of some functions of our website (see section "Use of Cookies").
Instead, we offer our users the option of opting out of the analysis process on our website. This saves another cookie on their system, which signals Matomo not to collect any usage data. Note: If you generally delete your cookies the opt-out cookie must be activated again.
For more information on the privacy settings of the Matomo software, see the following link: https://matomo.org/docs/privacy.

The Google Tag Manager takes care of loading other components, which in turn may collect data. The Google Tag Manager does not access this data.
