Cookies and Messages on Access Numbers
We use “session cookies” of VG Wort, Munich, to measure access to texts in order to determine the probability of copying. Session cookies are small units of information that a provider stores in the visitor’s computer’s memory. A session cookie stores a randomly generated unique identification number, a so-called session ID. A cookie also contains information about its origin and the storage period. Session cookies cannot store other data. These measurements are carried out by Kantar Germany GmbH according to the Scalable Central Measurement Method (SZM). They help to determine the copy probability of individual texts for the compensation of legal claims of authors and publishers. We do not collect any personal data via cookies. Many of our pages are equipped with JavaScript calls through which we report the accesses to the collecting society Wort (VG Wort). We enable our authors to participate in the distributions of VG Wort, which secures the statutory compensation for the use of copyrighted works according to § 53 UrhG. Our offers can also be used without cookies. Most browsers are set to automatically accept cookies. However, you can disable the storage of cookies or set your browser to notify you when cookies are sent.
Privacy Policy for the Use of the Scalable Central Measurement Method
Our website and our mobile web offer use the “Scalable Central Measurement Method” (SZM) of Kantar Germany GmbH for determining statistical parameters to determine the copy probability of texts. Anonymous measurement values are collected. The access number measurement alternatively uses a session cookie or a signature, which is created from various automatically transmitted information from your browser. IP addresses are processed only in anonymized form. The procedure was developed with the protection of personal data in mind. The sole purpose of the method is to determine the copy probability of individual texts. At no time are individual users identified. Your identity is always protected. You do not receive advertising through the system.
