Cookies give FM information about the way the website is used in order to improve the website, for anonymous statistical evaluation, for market research purposes and to improve FM’s offers. However, FM will only be able to recognize anonymized information such as general usage patterns on the website and not the usage behavior of individuals. Cookie information is not intended to personally identify any user. There is no correlation of personal data to identification numbers.

Users can set their web browsers to be informed about the use of cookies and permit them to either allow or deny cookies usage in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser.

However, these settings can lead to reduced availability or impaired functionality of the website.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there.

Purpose:Google will use this information on FM’s behalf to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide FM with other services related to website activity and internet usage.

Job Data Processing: FM has a contract with Google and FM fully implements the data protection requirements when using Google Analytics.

Google+1

Use of the Google+1 button enables the user to publish information worldwide. The Google+1 button provides the individual and other users with personalized content from Google and its affiliates. Google stores both the information that the user adds to +1 for content and information regarding the page viewed when the user clicked +1. The user’s +1 may appear alongside the profile name and photo in Google services, such as search results or in the user’s Google profile, or elsewhere on websites and ads on the web.

Google records information about the user’s +1 activity to improve Google’s services.

To use the Google +1 button, the user’s account needs to be globally visible, i.e., Google public profile that shows at least the name chosen for the profile. This name will be used in all Google services. In some cases, this name may also replace a different name that the user applies when sharing content through the Google Account. The identity of the Google Profile may be displayed to users who know the user’s email address or have other identifying information.

In addition to the uses outlined above, the information provided will be used in accordance with the applicable Google Privacy Policy (http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/). Google may publish summarized statistics on users’ +1 activity or share those statistics with FM users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers, or affiliate websites.

Data Security

FM secures this website and other systems through technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction, unauthorized access, modification or dissemination of user data by unauthorized persons. However, absolute protection cannot be guaranteed.

Where possible, FM data processing systems are privacy-friendly from the outset, e.g., designed by minimizing and pseudonymizing personal data.
