This website uses functional and analytical cookies (e.g. Google Analytics). What are cookies? A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit that website. Cookies are widely used to enable or improve the functioning of websites, and as a source of information for the operators of the website. How do we use cookies? The city's website uses Google Analytics, a service offered by Google, Inc. (hereafter ‘Google’) for analysing website usage. To this end, Google Analytics uses ‘cookies’, text files that are placed on your computer. The information generated by the cookies about the use of this website - standard internet log information (including your IP address) and information about the surfing behaviour of the visitor, in anonymous form - is sent to and stored by Google, including on servers in the United States. We anonymise your IP address before sending it to Google. Google declares that it complies with the EU-US Privacy Shield framework in accordance with its Privacy Shield certification. Google may pass on the data collected by Google Analytics to third parties if this is required by law, or if those third parties process this data on behalf of Google. According to the contractual conditions of Google Analytics, Google is not allowed to link the IP address of the data subject with other data held by Google. You can refuse the use of Google Analytics cookies by downloading and installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Cookies also serve to register whether or not the data subject consents to the use of cookies on the city's website, so that this does not have to be asked on every visit.
