The information generated by these cookies about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there. If you activate IP anonymisation for this website, however, Google abbreviates your IP address within the member states of the European Union or European Economic Area before it is transmitted. Only in exceptional cases is your full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the United States and abbreviated there.
