Privacy Policy for the Use of Google Analytics
We use the web analytics service Google Analytics on our websites fetischinstitut.ketshop.de and fetisch-institut.com, provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereafter referred to as “Google”). Google Analytics allows us to analyze user behavior on our website and improve the user experience.
1. Scope of Data Processing
Google Analytics uses “cookies,” which are text files stored on your device that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookies about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
We have activated IP anonymization on this website. Your IP address will therefore be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
2. Purpose of Data Processing
The use of Google Analytics is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both our website and our services.
3. Data Recipients
Google processes data on our behalf, and we have entered into a data processing agreement with Google.
4. Retention Period
The data collected by Google Analytics will be retained for a period of 14 months and automatically deleted afterward.
5. Opt-Out and Cookie Management
You can prevent cookies from being stored by adjusting your browser settings. However, please note that this may limit the functionality of our website.
Additionally, you can prevent the collection of data generated by the cookies and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google, as well as the processing of this data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link:

6. Data Transfer to Third Countries
