Cookie Policy

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies (for simplicity, all of these are referred to as "cookies"). Cookies are also placed by third parties commissioned by us. The document below informs you about the use of cookies on our website.

Summary: We don't like cookies, and just like you, we don't like cookie banners either. That's why we're constantly working to make our website as cookie-free as possible. With the exception of the firewall, login, and form functions, we've largely achieved this. In some cases, even our tracking, which is already anonymized, works entirely without the use of cookies.

Scripts

A script is a piece of program code that enables our website to function properly and interactively. This code is executed on our server or on your device. Scripts may need to set cookies to function correctly.

Web Beacon

A web beacon (also called a pixel tag) is a small, invisible piece of text or image on a website used to monitor website traffic. To enable this, various data about you is collected and stored via web beacons. Web beacons are used, for example, to measure the performance of an advertising campaign.

Cookies

A cookie is a small, simple text file that is sent along with pages from this website and stored by your browser on the hard drive of your computer or other device. The information stored in it can be returned to our servers or to the servers of the relevant third parties on a subsequent visit. Data protection regulations distinguish between three types of cookies. The cookie banner and this cookie policy inform you about the specific cookies used on this website.

  • Technically necessary and functional cookies

    Some cookies ensure that certain parts of the website function correctly and that your user preferences are remembered. By setting functional cookies, we make it easier for you to visit our website. This way, you don't have to repeatedly enter the same information when visiting our website; for example, items remain in your shopping cart until you have paid. We can place these cookies without your consent.

  • Analytical cookies

    We use analytics cookies to optimize the website experience for our users. These cookies provide us with insights into how our website is used. We ask for your permission to set analytical cookies.

  • Marketing / tracking cookies

    Marketing/tracking cookies are cookies or other forms of local storage used to create user profiles in order to display advertisements or to track the user on websites or across multiple websites for similar marketing purposes.
