Furthermore, we are interested in continuously improving our Online Services and user experience. For this purpose, we process information about your use of our Online Services or Metadata. In particular, we analyze popular or unused functions as well as settings for functions, which is in our legitimate interest. If required by law, a personal analysis of your user behavior will only take place if you have previously consented to this. Our Online Services may include integrated content or links to content provided by third parties, such as videos. This Privacy Notice does not apply to third parties that provide such content.
Performance of the business relationship
