9.4 Matomo (without Cookies)
9.4.1 Description and scope of data processing
We use the web analytics service MatomoData processing is carried out exclusively by Janitza GmbH itself, as we host the application ourselves and thus no data is transferred to third parties.
A consent-free tracking procedure has been established for our website. The software is set in such a way that the IP addresses are not stored in full, but 2 bytes of the IP address are masked (ex: 192.168.xxx.xxx). In this way, it is no longer possible to assign the shortened IP address to the calling computer. These partially anonymized IP addresses are converted into a hash value together with identifiers from the user agent of the browser (operating system, browser version, etc.), which are recognized when the page is called up. This hash value can be used to differentiate between concurrent users, i.e. users who are on the page at the same time.
The procedure is thus anonymized. Personal or person-related data is therefore not processed. Writing to the end device does not take place. Consent is therefore not required in accordance with the TTDSG, the ePrivacy Directive and the GDPR.
Technical information on the anonymized procedure with Matomo can be found here: https://matomo.org/faq/general/how-is-the-visitor-config_id-processed/
