General information on cookies

A cookie is a small file that is stored in the browser of the end device when the website is called up. Cookies can be used, for example, to identify the respective end device or to ensure the complete and correct display of our website. Cookies also help to provide the services integrated on the website, to personalise content and to customise and analyse advertisements.

What are the cookies?

Depending on their function and purpose, we divide cookies into three categories: Absolutely necessary cookies (necessary cookies), web statistics, cookies for marketing purposes. Please note that not all of the cookies listed here may be used if you access our website with a mobile device.

Absolutely necessary cookies (essential or necessary cookies)

These are cookies that are needed so that you can navigate on our websites and operate the basic functions of the website. This category also includes functional cookies. These enable a website to save information that has already been entered (such as user name, login, language selection or the location where you are) and thus offer the user improved, more personalised functions.

Web statistics cookies

These cookies enable us to determine how our website is used and, for example, which preferences and search terms are used to access it.

They also serve to improve the user-friendliness of a website and thus the user experience. Web statistics Cookies collect information about how our websites are used, e.g. the internet browser and operating system used; domain name of the website from which you came, number of visits, average time spent on the site, and pages viewed.

Cookies for marketing purposes

Marketing cookies are used to provide content that is more targeted to the user and relevant to their interests. They are also used to measure and control the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They record whether or not a website has been visited and what content has been used. This information may be shared with third parties, such as advertisers, where appropriate. These cookies are often linked to third party site functionality.

Deleting cookies and do-not-track setting

You can delete individual cookies or the entire cookie stock via your browser settings. In addition, you can obtain information and instructions on how to delete these cookies or block their storage in advance, depending on the provider of your browser, from the following links:

Mozilla Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/de/kb/cookies-loeschen-daten-von-websites-entfernen
Internet Explorer: https://support.microsoft.com/de-de/help/17442/windows-internet-explorer-delete-manage-cookies
Google Chrome: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/61416?hl=de
Opera: http://www.opera.com/de/help
Safari: https://support.apple.com/kb/PH17191?locale=de_DE&viewlocale=de_DE

You can also individually manage the cookies of many companies and functions that are used for advertising. To do this, use the corresponding user tools, available at https://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices. Most browsers also offer a so-called "do-not-track function" with which you can indicate that you do not want to be "tracked" by websites. When this feature is enabled, the browser tells ad networks, websites and applications that you do not want to be tracked for behavioural advertising and the like. For information and instructions on how to edit this feature, please see the links below, depending on your browser provider:

Mozilla Firefox: https://www.mozilla.org/de/firefox/dnt/
Internet Explorer: https://support.microsoft.com/de-de/help/17288/windows-internet-explorer-11-use-do-not-track
Google Chrome: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/2790761?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=de
Opera: http://help.opera.com/Windows/12.10/de/notrack.html
Safari: https://support.apple.com/kb/PH21416?locale=de_DE

Zusätzlich können Sie standardmäßig das Laden sog. Scripts verhindern. NoScript erlaubt das Ausführen von JavaScript, Java und anderen Plugin) nur bei vertrauenswürdigen Domains Ihrer Wahl. Informationen und Anleitungen, wie Sie diese Funktion bearbeiten können, erhalten Sie über den Anbieter Ihres Browsers (für Mozilla Firefox, z. B.: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/noscript/).
