The information generated by the cookie on the use of our websites is generally transmitted to a server of Google in the USA and stored there. However, in the event that IP anonymization has been activated when using our websites, the IP address of the visitors to the website is abbreviated by Google beforehand within the member states of the European Union or other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. Google, working under contract for EVENTIM, uses this information to analyze the use of the websites, generate reports about website activities and render other services to EVENTIM related to the use of the websites and internet use.

The IP address transmitted to Google Analytics by the browser of the user is not combined with other data held by Google.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by means of a corresponding adjustment of your browser software; we advise you, however, that in this case some functions of these websites may not be used to their full extent.

Our websites use Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizelp()”. As a result, IP addresses are processed in abbreviated form and a direct correlation to individuals can be ruled out.

The use of Google Analytics is based on the prerequisites that the German data protection authorities have agreed on with Google.

More information on the terms and conditions of use and data protection can be found at:
