Analysis service (Members’ section)
In the members’ section of our website (https://mitgliedschaft.gema.de/) we use the analysis service Hotjar for the analysis of the use of the website. Hotjar also utilises cookies in order to collect information on the behaviour of the users of our website and their terminal equipment (screen size, device type, operating system, browser used, location (only the country), preferred languages for displaying our website). Hotjar saves such information in a pseudonymised user profile. Neither Hotjar nor we will use the information to identify individual users or consolidate it with other data on individual users. You can avoid that cookies are used by setting your browser software accordingly, but it is possible that, in such a case, you may not be able to use all functions of the website to their full extent.
Tool for the geographical location of uses (member area)
In the members' area of the online portal, within the framework of the royalty service, we offer a display showing the geographical location of the use of works by the respective GEMA member. For this service we use the JavaScript library MapBox GL JS. The JavaScript library MapBox GL JS uses cookies to collect the following technical information for display, optimisation and analysis purposes: IP address, information on the device and browser, operating system, content of the retrieval, date and time of the retrieval, location (restricted) and usage data. The IP address is deleted from the service after 30 days. This data is not used by the service to identify individual users or merged with other data about individual users. The data collected by the service is not passed on to us. You can prevent the use of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings accordingly, but it may be that in this case you will not be able to use the feedback function.
