3. Cookies
Our website uses HTTP cookies to store user-specific data. In the following, we explain what cookies are and why they are used so that you can better understand the privacy policy.
What type of cookies may be used when you visit our website?
The question of which cookies we use in particular depends on the services used. We can distinguish between four types of cookies:
Strictly necessary (essential) cookies
These cookies are necessary to ensure basic functions of the website. For example, cookies are needed to recognise visitors, to record the pages they visit and to enable improvements to navigation. These cookies do not delete the shopping basket even if the user closes their browser window.
Functionality cookies
These cookies collect information about user behaviour and whether the user receives any error messages. In addition, these cookies are also used to measure the loading time and the behaviour of the website with different browsers.
These cookies are set if you have given your consent:
How can I delete cookies?
You decide how and whether you want to use cookies. Regardless of which service or website the cookies come from, you always have the option of deleting cookies, only partially allowing them or disabling them. For example, you can block third-party cookies but allow all other cookies.
If you want to find out which cookies have been stored in your browser, if you want to change or delete cookie settings, you can find this in your browser settings:
Chrome: Delete, activate and manage cookies in Chrome.
Safari: Manage cookies and website data with Safari
Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have placed on your computer
Internet Explorer: Delete and manage cookies
Microsoft Edge: Delete and manage cookies
If you generally do not want cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. In this way, you can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow the cookie or not. The procedure varies depending on the browser. The best thing to do is to search for the instructions in Google with the search term “Delete Cookies Chrome” or “Disable Cookies Chrome” in the case of a Chrome browser, or exchange the word “Chrome” for the name of your browser, e.g. Edge, Firefox, Safari.
Processing by way of essential cookies within the scope of using this website is carried out in accordance with Article 6(1)(1)(f) GDPR, on the basis of a legitimate interest that consists of providing visitors to our website with a stable and properly functioning website.
