Cookies and right to object to direct advertising

We use temporary and permanent cookies, i.e., small files stored on users' devices (for an explanation of the term and function, see the last section of this privacy policy). Some of these cookies serve security purposes or are necessary for the operation of our online offering (e.g., for displaying the website) or to save the user's decision when confirming the cookie banner. In addition, we or our technology partners use cookies for reach measurement and marketing purposes, about which users are informed in the course of this privacy policy.

A general objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can be declared for many services, especially in the case of tracking, via the US website www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU website www.youronlinechoices.com/.

Cookies and reach measurement
Cookies are pieces of information transferred from our web server or third-party web servers to users' web browsers and stored there for later retrieval. Cookies can be small files or other types of information storage.
We use "session cookies," which are stored only for the duration of your current visit to our website (e.g., to save your login status or enable the shopping cart function and thus enable the use of our online offering). A session cookie stores a randomly generated unique identification number, a so-called session ID. Furthermore, a cookie contains information about its origin and the storage period. These cookies cannot store any other data. Session cookies are deleted when you have finished using our online offering, for example, by logging out or closing the browser.
Users are informed about the use of cookies in the context of pseudonymous reach measurement in this data protection declaration.
If users do not wish to have cookies stored on their computer, they are asked to deactivate the corresponding option in their browser's system settings. Stored cookies can be deleted in the browser's system settings. Excluding cookies may lead to functional limitations of this website.
You can object to the use of cookies for reach measurement and advertising purposes via the Network Advertising Initiative deactivation page (optout.networkadvertising.org/) and additionally via the US website (http://www.aboutads.info/choices) or the European website (www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices/).
