What is a cookie?
Cookies are small files that are stored on your device to keep track of your website visit and preferences as you navigate between pages, and sometimes to remember settings between visits. Cookies help website developers collect statistical data on how often people visit certain areas of the website and help develop customized websites that are more useful and user-friendly.
How do we use cookies?
We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them. They enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit. The cookies used include the following categories.
- Required cookies: These cookies are required for the basic function of the website. These cookies are used, for example, to enable access to login areas (through so-called "session cookies"). Without these cookies, the website will not function correctly. For this reason, they cannot be deactivated.
- Statistics cookies: These cookies enable anonymous analysis of the use of the website. They help to understand how visitors interact with our website (e.g. which pages are visited how often or how long users stay on the web pages). We use Google Analytics for these analyses.
- Marketing cookies: These cookies enable us to find out in an anonymous form what content a visitor is interested in on our website. On this basis, we can display advertising tailored to the visitor's interests on our website or on third-party websites.
