Google Analytics
Doka uses Google Analytics software to analyse its website traffic, and explicitly refers its users to the following Google data privacy statement: "This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ('Google'). Google Analytics uses 'cookies', which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how visitors use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website will generally be transmitted to, and stored by, Google on a server in the USA. If IP anonymisation ('masking') has been activated on this website, however, and you are located in a member state of the European Union or in another state that is party to the European Economic Area (EEA) Agreement, your IP address will first be abbreviated by Google, the full IP address only being transmitted to a Google server in the USA in exceptional cases before being abbreviated there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted from your browser by Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google.

Facebook plug-in
Doka uses plug-ins provided by the social network Facebook. If you do not want Facebook to associate your visit to our website with your Facebook user account, please log out of your Facebook account first. The Facebook plug-ins can be identified by the Facebook logo or the 'Like' button on our webpages. If you visit Facebook from one of our webpages, the plug-in establishes a direct link between your browser and the Facebook server.

Description:
Doka uses a service called reCAPTCHA v3, provided by Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, on this website to protect against malicious attacks (e.g. DDoS attacks) by non-human visitors (i.e. bots) and to prevent spam. This service checks whether a specific action on the Doka website, such as inputting data into a form, is carried out by a natural person or by an automated computer program (e.g. spam software). The use of reCAPTCHA v3 means your browser will initiate a connection to Google’s servers. Doka wishes to point out that this service may entail the transmission of personal data to Google LLC in the USA and it is not possible to exclude this possibility.
reCAPTCHA v3 is integrated into our website using JavaScript and analyses user behaviour by transmitting data to Google’s servers, such as the user’s IP address, information about their operating system, the referrer URL, cookies (Marketing) including IDE, 1P_JAR, ANID, CONSENT, NID and DV, date and language settings, all JavaScript objects, screen resolution, mouse movements, keystrokes and the duration of the user’s visit to the website. If the user is also logged into a Google user account at the time of their visit to the Doka website, Google may allocate the user’s visit to the Doka website to their user behaviour. In addition, Google may send further cookies to the user’s browser. The above list of browser and user data is by no means exhaustive. Google reCAPTCHA analyses and the entire recognition process takes place completely in the background.
Doka does not gain any precise knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Google and his no ability to further restrict the transmission of data to Google and its partners. Google may save data as user profiles and use it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or to display its website in line with users’ needs. This analysis is carried out in particular for the purpose of displaying targeted advertisements (even for users not logged in to a Google account).

By using the Doka website, you give your consent to the automatic collection, processing and use of data by Google. If you do not want Doka to use this service, we recommend contacting Doka using the contact details provided on the respective website.
