Cookies are small files saved on the user's data carrier, used by the user's browser to save specific settings and data for exchange with our system. There are two types of cookies, so-called session cookies, which are deleted when the user closes the browser, and temporary/permanent cookies, which are stored for a longer period or permanently on the user's data carrier. By storing these files, we can properly prepare our websites and our offer in terms of user preferences. This makes it easier for the user to use the website, for example by saving certain user data so that they do not have to provide it every time.

Only pseudonymized data is saved in the cookies used by the Online Store. When a cookie is activated, it is assigned an identification number without assigning the user's personal data to that identification number. The name, IP address or similar user data that would enable the cookie to be directly assigned to the user are not stored in the cookie. Based on cookie technology, we only obtain pseudonymized information, for example which pages of our store the user visited and which products he or she viewed.

Accepting cookies is not a necessary condition for using our website. However, if you block the use of cookies, the Online Store website may only operate with limited functions.
