Subscribers may also be informed by email of circumstances relevant to the service or registration (such as changes to the newsletter offering or technical circumstances).

To display our content correctly and graphically across browsers, we use script and font libraries such as Google Webfonts on this website. Google Webfonts are transferred to avoid multiple loads into your browser's cache. If your browser does not support Google Webfonts or restricts access, the content will be displayed in a standard font.

Access to script or font libraries automatically connects to the library operator. It is theoretically possible for the operators of these libraries to collect data – however, it is currently unclear whether and for what purpose this is done.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across AdWords customers' websites. The information collected with the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers,who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers will know the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag.
