4. Categories of cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies on our site. These are small files that are automatically created by your browser and stored on your end device (laptop, tablet, smartphone or similar) when you visit our website. Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device, do not contain viruses, Trojans or other malware. 

Information is stored in the cookie that arises in each case in connection with the specific end device used. This does not mean, however, that we gain direct knowledge of your identity. 

The use of cookies serves on, the one hand, to make the use of our offer more pleasant for you. For example, we use so-called session cookies to recognize that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted after you leave our site. 

In addition, we also use temporary cookies to optimize user-friendliness and are stored on your terminal device for a certain fixed period of time. If you visit our site again to make use of our services, our site automatically recognizes that you have already been with us and uses information about entries and settings you made previously so that you do not have to enter the information again. 

On the other hand, we use cookies to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing our offer for you.

These cookies enable us to automatically recognize that you have already been to our site when you visit it again. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period of time. 
The data processed by cookies is necessary for the aforementioned purposes to protect our legitimate interests and those of third parties in accordance with Art. 6 (1)  1 lit. f) GDPR. 
Most browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or to receive notification before a new cookie is created. Note that the complete deactivation of cookies may prevent you from using all the functions of our website. 

With the Consent Manager, we offer you the possibility to choose which types of cookies you agree to. The acceptance of technically necessary cookies is not optional. 
The cookies used on our website can be divided into five categories:

• Technically necessary cookies 
• Functional cookies 
• Analytics cookies and experience cookies 
• Enhancement cookies 
• Targeting cookies and marketing cookies 

While technically required cookies are always stored when you visit our website, you have the option here to select whether or not you want to allow the use of cookies for analyzing reach and performance as well as for marketing. You can change your settings at any time. Note that blocking certain types of cookies may result in an impaired experience of our website and/or the services and functions that can be accessed through our site.
For general information about the cookies used, refer to the sections and detailed views below ("Your cookie settings on this website").

5. Accepting or revoking the use of cookies and similar technologies

In the cookie settings, you have the option in each case to give your voluntary consent to the use of technologies for analysis as well as marketing individually or in general and to revoke this at any time for the future. If you do not want the use of certain technologies or cookies in general, you can instead also prevent their storage on your terminal device through appropriate settings of your terminal device and/or Internet browser. 

You can select "do not accept cookies" in your internet browser settings. The procedures for managing and deleting cookies in your Internet browser settings are described in the help function of your Internet browser. 

You can delete stored cookies in the system settings of your terminal device and/or Internet browser at any time.

Note that the functionality and range of functions of our offer may be limited if you block cookies or similar technologies or do not consent to their use.

6. Place of processing

The processing of personal data collected by means of cookies is generally carried out in the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA) or in third countries for which the European Commission has determined an adequate level of data protection in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR pursuant to Article 45 (3) GDPR. 

In the case of cookies from so-called third-party providers that are based in third countries such as the USA, it is not possible to guarantee a level of data protection that complies with the GDPR. In such cases, the requirements of Article 44 et seq. GDPR apply. To adapt the level of data protection to the standard of the GDPR through appropriate guarantees, so-called standard contractual clauses of the European Commission pursuant to Article 46 (2) lit c) GDPR are concluded with the providers in particular. In this context, please note that by giving your consent, there may still be risks that transmitted data may not be processed in accordance with the GDPR.

a) Technically necessary cookies and similar technologies

Technically necessary cookies are classified as cookies that must be present for the website to provide basic website functions. They are essential to access website functions, such as logging in, adding items to a shopping cart or electronic billing. They allow a user to navigate back and forth between pages without losing their previous actions from the same session. Since these cookies are necessary for the functionality of a website, website owners do not need to obtain the user's consent to place technically necessary cookies on their devices. 

Data processing by means of technically necessary cookies and similar technologies is carried out - insofar as there is a corresponding underlying contractual relationship - on the basis of Article 6 (1) lit b) GDPR or on the basis of Article 6 (1) lit c) GDPR - insofar as necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation - and otherwise on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6 (1) lit f) GDPR. A legitimate interest results from the described purposes of use of the respective technology as well as ensuring the technical operation of our website with certain basic functionalities. The following table lists in detail the services that use technically required cookies or similar technologies.

e) Marketing cookies and targeting cookies 
Cookies and similar technologies are used in marketing to provide you with interest-based content and ads as well as to provide more accurate campaign performance reports. These technologies are sometimes set by third parties (i.e., marketing and social media partners selected by us). As a result, these third-parties receive information about your use of our website and may combine this information with other data they may have received from you elsewhere.

Marketing cookies store information about websites visited by users. This data is used to display personalized advertising tailored to users' interests.

Targeting cookies extend the functionality of marketing cookies by allowing cookies to follow users when they visit other websites. Sometimes the website with the advertising cookies does not display the ads, but it can target users with ads elsewhere even after they leave the website. Examples of targeting and advertising cookies are social media cookies that are placed on websites to track users on the web and show them advertisements on social media platforms.

In this context, the data processing takes place exclusively on the basis of your voluntary consent pursuant to Article 6 (1) lit a) GDPR. If you give us your consent for this, cookies and similar technologies will be set when you call up our website or when you call up an offer provided via it, and you will also be able to experience interest-based advertising from us on other websites and social media offers. You have the option here to extend your consent either to individual services or to all services in this category. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.
