Our website uses cookies to improve the user experience and enable specific functions. A cookie is a small file that asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Once you grant consent, the file is added, and the cookie helps analyze web traffic or notifies users of a specific site visit. Cookies allow web applications to personalize their functionality based on individual preferences, catering to particular needs, likes, and dislikes.
We use traffic log cookies to determine which pages are being accessed. This information helps us analyze webpage traffic data and improve our website to meet the needs of our customers. We only use this information for statistical analysis, after which the data is removed from our system. Cookies enhance our ability to offer you a better website experience by allowing us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you don't. It's important to note that cookies do not provide access to your personal information or computer unless you share such data with us.
You have the option of accepting or declining cookies. Although most web browsers automatically accept cookies, you can modify your browser settings to decline them. However, keep in mind that declining cookies may limit your ability to use some of the features available on our website to their full potential. In some cases, these cookies are automatically deleted after the browser is closed (called "session cookies"); in other cases, these cookies remain on your device for longer and allow page settings to be saved (called "persistent cookies"). In the latter case, you can find the duration of the storage in your web browser's cookie settings overview.
The processing of personal data through individual cookies set by us is governed by Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR for contract performance, Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR in the case of given consent, and Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests in ensuring the optimal functionality of the website and designing a customer-centric and effective website visit. It is possible to configure your web browser to provide notifications regarding the placement of cookies and make independent decisions about their acceptance or exclusion for specific cases or in general. Please keep in mind that if cookies are not accepted, the functionality of our website may be compromised.
This website employs a "cookie consent tool" to secure effective user consent for cookies and applications based on cookies that require consent. The "cookie consent tool" takes the form of an interactive user interface presented to users upon accessing the page, enabling the provision of consent for specific cookies and cookie-based applications by selecting the appropriate checkbox. The tool ensures that all cookies and services necessitating consent are only deployed when the user has granted the corresponding consent by choosing the adequate checkbox. This guarantees that such cookies are only installed on the user's terminal device if and when consent has been given. The tool deploys technically indispensable cookies to save the user's cookie preferences. In general, no personal user data is processed. In individual cases in which personal data (such as the IP address) is processed to store, allocate, or log cookie settings, this is done in conformity with Article 6(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), based on our legitimate interest in ensuring legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies, and thereby attaining a legally compliant design of our website.
Article 6(1) point c GDPR represents another legal basis for this processing. As the responsible party, we are subject to the legal obligation to use technically unnecessary cookies contingent upon the user's consent. Additional information on the operator and the configuration options of the cookie consent tool can be obtained directly from the corresponding user interface on our website.
