Maps from Google Maps map service

Our website uses plugins in the form of maps, satellite photos and route planning from Google Maps. These can be used by you to calculate routes. The provider of this service is Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

To warrant data protection on this website, you will find that Google Maps has been deactivated when you visit this website for the first time. A direct connection to Google’s servers will not be established until you have activated Google Maps autonomously at your end (i.e. given your consent pursuant to Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. a GDPR). This will prevent the transfer of your data to Google during your first visit to our website.

Once you have activated the service, Google Maps will store your IP address. As a rule, it is subsequently transferred to a Google server in the United States, where it is stored. The provider of this website does not have any control over this (and maybe other) data transfer once Google Maps has been activated.

For more information about the handling of user data, please consult the Data Privacy Declaration of Google under the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=en.

Google Maps is embedded on this website only after you have given your consent. By clicking on the following button you can agree to the use of Google Maps and later also object to it.

Status of Google Maps: inactive.
Do you want to enable Google Maps?

Your consent or objection will be stored in a cookie and documented in accordance with data protection regulations.
