What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files which are stored by the web browser on the user’s device in order to store specific information. During the next visit to our website via the same device, the information stored in the cookies is sent back to our website (“First-Party Cookie”) or another website to which the cookie belongs (“Third-Party Cookie”).
By means of the information stored in and sent back by the cookie, the respective website recognises that the user has already accessed and visited this website via his device’s web browser. We use this information in order to be able to optimally display the website to the user based upon his preferences.
However, in so doing, only the cookie itself is identified on the device. Any more extensive storage of personal data is done only if the user has provided us with his express consent to do so or if this storage is absolutely required in order to be able to utilise the service being offered and accessed.
