3.3 Use of ajax.googleapis.com/ jQuery

On our website we use the Javascript library jQuery. To increase the loading speed of our website and to give you a better user experience, we use Google's content delivery network (CDN) to load this library.

There is a high probability that you have already used jQuery on another page of the Google CDN. If so, your browser can use the cached copy and it does not need to be downloaded again.

If your browser does not cache a copy or for any other reason downloads the file from the Google CDN, then data will be transferred from your browser to Google. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the US, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield.

The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. Third Party Information: Google Dublin, Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436 1001.
