Tag Management

Google Tag Manager

This website uses Google Tag Manager provided by Google LLC.

Google Tag Manager is a tag management system that allows us to centrally manage and deploy tracking scripts and other website tags. The tool itself does not store personal data and does not carry out independent analyses.

However, the Google Tag Manager triggers other tags that may collect data. Google Tag Manager itself does not access this data.

Tag execution on this website is controlled via Google Consent Mode, ensuring that analytics or marketing tags are only activated once users have provided their consent via the consent management platform.
