§ 14 Google reCAPTCHA
(1) We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter referred to as “reCAPTCHA”) on our websites. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
(2) The purpose of reCAPTCHA is to determine whether data entered on our websites (e.g., information entered into a contact form) is being provided by a human user or by an automated program. To determine this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of website visitors based on a variety of parameters. This analysis is triggered automatically as soon as a website visitor enters the site. For this analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates a variety of data (e.g., IP address, time the website visitor spent on the site, or cursor movements initiated by the user). The data tracked during such analyses are forwarded to Google. The reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not alerted that an analysis is underway.
(3) The data is processed on the basis of Art. 6, Sect. 1, lit f GDPR. It is in the website operator’s legitimate interest to protect the operator’s web content against misuse by automated industrial espionage systems and against spam.

For this purpose, we have concluded an order processing contract that includes the EU standard data protection clauses with Google. Google LLC, headquartered in California, USA, and, if applicable, US authorities can access the data stored at Google.
