Google Maps

We use Google Maps from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). The display of Google Maps requires the provision of fonts from Google Fonts. By using Google Fonts, a connection to Google servers in the USA is established. This automatically transmits and stores the IP address of the website visitor to Google. Additionally, Google Maps can create cookies and storage entries. These are small text files stored on the user's computer. These text files allow the analysis of user behavior when visiting the website and can then be used for targeted recommendations and interest-based advertising.
