This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring the trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offer. In accordance with art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, this serves to protect our legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our offer, which are predominant in the context of a weighing of interests.
