Google Web Fonts

This site uses web fonts provided by Google in order to ensure fonts are displayed in a uniform manner. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly. For this purpose, the browser you use has to connect to Google’s servers. This means that Google is informed that our website has been accessed via your IP address.

Google web fonts are used in order to ensure that our online services are presented in a uniform and appealing manner. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) of GDPR. If your browser does not support web fonts, your computer will use a default font. Further information about Google web fonts is available from https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and from Google’s privacy policy https://www.google.com/policies/privacy.
