Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. In the event that IP anonymization is activated on this website, however, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand.

Integration of Google Maps
We use Google Maps on this website. This allows us to show you interactive maps directly on the website and enables you to comfortably use the map function. By visiting the website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. In addition, the data mentioned in § 3 of this declaration is transmitted. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in with or whether no user account exists.
Google Web Fonts
This site uses web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly. For this purpose, the browser you use must connect to Google's servers. This gives Google knowledge that our website was accessed via your IP address.
6. Social Media
We take the current discussion about data protection in social networks very seriously. It is currently not conclusively clarified legally whether and to what extent all networks offer their services in accordance with European data protection regulations. We therefore expressly point out that the services we use, Facebook, Twitter, Xing, Google+ and YouTube, store the data of their users (e.g. personal information, IP address) according to their own data usage guidelines and use it for business purposes.
7. Data use for scientific purposes
We also offer you legal-scientific content on our pages, e.g. by reporting on current legislative projects, discussion processes and resolutions of the statutory assembly and current (highest) judicial decisions. The processing of personal data takes place exclusively in anonymized form or, if the latter is not possible, in pseudonymized form (§ 28 Para. 1 DSG NRW). If you have questions (or suggestions) about this, please contact info@3wsolutions.de

Whether a single page of our internet presence is transmitted in encrypted form can be recognized by the closed representation of the key or lock symbol in the lower status bar of your browser. We also use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or total loss, destruction or against unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
