Use of script libraries (Google Web Fonts)

To ensure that our content is displayed correctly and graphically appealing in every browser, we use script and font libraries such as Google Web Fonts for this website (https://www.google.com/webfonts).

If your browser does not support Google Web Fonts or denies access, the content is displayed in a standard font.  
  • When script or font libraries are called up, a connection to the operator of the library is automatically established. Theoretically, it is possible for this operator to collect data. At present, it is not known whether and for what purpose the operators of the corresponding libraries actually collect data.

  • Here you can find the privacy policy of the operator of the Google library: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy.
