Google Web Fonts

This website uses so-called web fonts provided by Google for the uniform representation of fonts. When you open a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly. For this purpose, your browser has to establish a direct connection to Google servers. Google thus becomes aware that our website was accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web fonts is done in the interest of the uniform and attractive presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a justified interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR.  If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font is used by your computer.
