4. Use of Google Services

a) Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics uses cookies that enable an analysis of how you use our website. The information generated by these cookies (including your IP address) is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

We have activated IP anonymization, meaning that within member states of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, your IP address will be shortened before being transmitted to the USA.

Google processes this information on our behalf to evaluate website usage, compile reports, and provide other services related to website activity and internet usage.

The legal basis for this data processing is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, which you can give or withdraw at any time through the Borlabs Cookie consent banner.

You can also prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser settings or by using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available here:

b) Google Search Console

We also use Google Search Console to monitor and optimize our website’s visibility and performance in Google Search.
Google Search Console does not use cookies and does not collect personal data from website visitors.
It only provides us with aggregated performance data (e.g., search terms, impressions, and clicks).
The use of this service is based on our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

5. Use of Bandsintown

Our website integrates a widget from the service Bandsintown, which allows you to view our tour dates and find tickets. The provider is:
Bandsintown Group, Inc., 8 West 36th Street, 5th Floor, New York, NY 10018, USA.

When the widget is loaded, a connection to Bandsintown’s servers is established. Personal data (e.g., your IP address and browser information) may be transmitted to Bandsintown and cookies may be set on your device.
