Scalable Centralised Measuring System
Our website uses the measurement method („SZMnG“) of the INFOnline GmbH to determine statistical values about the usage of our services. The goal of this measurement is to specify the number of visits on our website, the amount of visitors on our website and their surfing habits - based on a unified standard process - in order to receive market-wide comparable values.
For all digital offers which are members of the Informationsgemeinschaft zur Feststellung der Verbreitung von Werbeträgern e.V. (IVW – http://www.ivw.eu) or take part at studies of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Online-Forschung e.V. (AGOF - http://www.agof.de) usage statistics are processed regularly to measure reach via the AGOF and the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Media-Analyse e.V. (agma - http://www.agma-mmc.de) and are published under the performance value „Unique User“ as well as via the IVW with the performance values „Page Impression“ and „Visits“. These reach and statistics can be seen on the respective websites.
Legal basis for the processing
The measurement using the measurement method SZMnG of the INFOnline GmbH is taken place because of legitimate interest based on Art. 6 Para. 1 point f GDPR. Purpose of the processing of personal data is to create statistics and build categories of users. The statistics are used to understand and verify the usage of our service. The user categories are the basis to provide advertising materials or rather advertising measures based on their interest. The marketing of this website requires a measurement which is essential to compare with other market players.

The IP addresses are shortened by 1 byte before any processing takes place and is only processed anonymously. There’s no further storage or processing of unabridged IP addresses.
- A random created client-identifier: For recognition purposes the reach processing uses either a cookie with the identifier „ioam.de", a „local storage object“ or it uses a signature based on the automatically submitted data from your browser. This identifier is unique for a browser as long as the cookie or the local storage object doesn’t get deleted. A measurement of data and the subsequent assignment is therefore also possible if you visit a website which also makes use of the measurement method („SZMnG“) of INFOnline GmbH.
