We analyse information in log files which your browser transmits to us automatically.

Such data will not be combined with data from other sources.

In part, the websites use so-called cookies, for example to prepare a memo in the vehicle inventories. Cookies are small text files which are filed on your computer and stored by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Cookies do not do any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Apart from that, you can delete cookies yourself at any time by setting your browser accordingly.

Privacy declaration for the use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (“Google”).
