When you use our website, we store cookies on your computer. Cookies are small text files that your browser stores on your hard drive. If you visit other pages of our website or the same page again, we will receive certain pieces of information. Cookies cannot run programs or transmit viruses to your computer. They serve to make our Internet offer more user-friendly and effective overall.
How we use cookies
- Our website uses transient cookies and persistent cookies, the scope and functionality of which are explained below.
- Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Transient cookies in particular include session cookies. These store a so-called session ID, which can be used to assign different requests of your browser to a common session. This allows us to recognize your computer when you return to our website. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close your browser. After your browser has deleted the session cookies, we can no longer recognize your computer the next time you visit us.
- Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period of time, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete cookies at any time in the security settings of your browser. You can choose the security settings of your browser so that it also deletes persistent cookies when you close your browser.
- You can use your browser’s settings to determine how it should handle cookies that a website transmits to it. For example, you can specify that you will be notified each time a website wants to set a cookie and that you want to decide in each individual case whether to accept or reject the respective cookie. You can inhibit the acceptance of cookies in general or for certain websites. Please note: If you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use all functions of the respective website.
- If you have an account with us, we use cookies to identify you for subsequent visits. If you refuse these cookies to be set, you must log in again for each visit.
- As far as we use Flash cookies, these are not recorded by your browser, but rather by your Flash plug-in. We also use HTML5 storage objects that are stored on your device. These objects store the required data independently of your browser and do not have any automatic expiry date. If you do not want Flash cookies to be processed, you must install an appropriate add-on, e.g. “Cookiebro” (https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/cookiebro/) or “Clear Flash Cookies” (https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/clear-flash-cookies/) for Mozilla Firefox or the Adobe Flash killer cookie for Google Chrome. You can prevent the use of HTML5 storage objects by using the private mode in your browser. We also recommend that you regularly delete your cookies and your browser history manually.
Legal basis for processing cookies and objecting to processing
We process cookies on the basis of Article 6 paragraph 1 point f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour so that we can optimise both our website and our advertising.
