Google Maps Privacy Policy
We use Google Maps from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) on our website. Google Maps allows us to better show you locations and thus adapt our service to your needs. By using Google Maps, data is transferred to Google and stored on Google servers. Here we want to go into more detail about what Google Maps is, why we use this Google service, what data is stored and how you can prevent this.
What is Google Maps?
Google Maps is an internet map service from Google Inc. With Google Maps, you can search online via a PC, tablet or app for precise locations of cities, sights, accommodations or businesses. If businesses are represented on Google My Business, further information about the company is displayed in addition to the location. To show directions, map sections of a location can be embedded into a website using HTML code. Google Maps displays the earth's surface as a roadmap or as an aerial or satellite image. Thanks to Street View images and high-quality satellite images, very precise representations are possible.
Why do we use Google Maps on our website?
All our efforts on this site are aimed at providing you with a useful and meaningful time on our website. By integrating Google Maps, we can provide you with the most important information about various locations. You can see at a glance where our company headquarters are. The route description always shows you the best or fastest way to us. You can call up the route for routes by car, public transport, on foot or by bicycle. For us, providing Google Maps is part of our customer service.
What data is stored by Google Maps?
For Google Maps to offer its service completely, the company must collect and store data from you. This includes, among other things, the search terms you entered, your IP address and also the latitude and longitude coordinates. If you use the route planner function, the starting address entered will also be stored. However, this data storage takes place on the Google Maps websites. We can only inform you about this, but have no influence on it. Since we have integrated Google Maps into our website, Google sets at least one cookie (name: NID) in your browser. This cookie stores data about your user behavior. Google primarily uses this data to optimize its own services and to provide you with individual, personalized advertising.
The following cookie is set in your browser due to the integration of Google Maps:
Name: NID
Value: 188=h26c1Ktha7fCQTx8rXgLyATyITJ211106743 Purpose: NID is used by Google to adapt ads to your Google search. With the help of the cookie, Google "remembers" your most frequently entered search queries or your previous interaction with ads. This way you always get tailor-made ads. The cookie contains a unique ID that Google uses to collect your personal settings for advertising purposes.
Expiry date: after 6 months
Note: We cannot guarantee the completeness of the stored data. Especially when using cookies, changes can never be ruled out. To identify the NID cookie, a separate test page was created where only Google Maps was integrated.
How long and where is the data stored?
Google's servers are located in data centers around the world. However, most servers are located in America. For this reason, your data is also stored more frequently in the USA. Here you can read exactly where Google's data centers are located: https://www.google.com/about/datacenters/inside/locations/?hl=de
Google distributes the data across different data carriers. This makes the data accessible more quickly and better protected against possible manipulation attempts. Each data center also has special emergency programs. For example, if there are problems with Google hardware or a natural disaster paralyzes the servers, the data remains quite securely protected.
Google stores some data for a fixed period. For other data, Google only offers the option of manually deleting it. Furthermore, the company also anonymizes information (such as advertising data) in server logs by deleting part of the IP address and cookie information after 9 or 18 months.
How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?
With the automatic deletion function for location and activity data introduced in 2019, location tracking information and web/app activity – depending on your decision – are stored for either 3 or 18 months and then deleted. In addition, this data can also be manually deleted from the history at any time via the Google account. If you want to completely prevent your location from being tracked, you must pause the "Web & App Activity" section in your Google account. Click on "Data & Personalization" and then on the "Activity controls" option. Here you can switch activities on or off.
In your browser, you can also deactivate, delete or manage individual cookies. Depending on the browser you use, this always works a little differently. The following instructions show how to manage cookies in your browser:
Chrome: Delete, enable, and manage cookies in Chrome
Safari: Manage cookies and website data with Safari
Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies
Microsoft Edge: Delete and manage cookies
