The web pages use cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via a web browser. Many websites and services use cookies. Many cookies contain what is known as a cookie ID. A cookie ID is a clear and unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string which makes it possible to assign web pages and servers to their specific web browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows the visited websites and servers to distinguish an individual web browser from other web browsers that contain other cookies. A specific web browser can be recognised and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, we can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimised with the user in mind Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognise the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilise our website. The website user that uses cookies, e.g. does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed, because this is taken over by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in the online shop. The online store remembers the articles that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the web browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs. This is possible with all popular web browsers. If the data subject deactivates the placement of cookies in the web browser being used then under certain circumstances not all of functions of our website will be fully usable.
