Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored by the internet browser on the user’s computer system. When a user visits a website, a cookie may be stored on the user’s operating system. This cookie contains a unique string of characters that enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is visited again. We use cookies that are necessary for the website to function.
If the user consents to the storage of cookies via the consent notification displayed, which serves for analytical purposes to carry out a data-minimised analysis of anonymised user behaviour during page visits and interactions with the website, these are occasionally used to recognise sessions over short periods of time. Where consent is given for user tracking, an anonymised user profile may occasionally be created for a short period.
The legal basis for processing personal data using cookies for analytical purposes is Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR where the user has given their consent, or Article 6(1)(e) of the GDPR where technically necessary cookies are used. The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to make it easier for users to use websites. No user data is collected via technically necessary cookies.
Cookies are stored on the user’s computer and transmitted from there to our site. As a user, you therefore have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your web browser, you can disable or restrict the storage of cookies. Cookies that have already been stored can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are disabled for our website, it may no longer be possible to use all the website’s functions to their full extent.
