For single functions on our website, we use “cookies”. Cookies are small textfiles that are saved on your terminal.

On one hand we use so called “session cookies” to be able to recognize which subpages you have visited and to be able to offer you functions like login, search functions or shopping cart. An individually for your visit created session-ID is saved in that cookie. After leaving our website, the session cookie will be deleted automatically.

Furthermore we use temporary cookies to optimize the user-friendliness of our website.

Our website can of course also be used without cookies. You can prevent the saving of cookies by checking your browsers settings and click on „do not accept cookies“. How this works in particular is described in the manual of your browser. The deactivation of cookies could  lead to function impairment of our website.

3. Answering inquiries

The processing of the data occurs in accordance to Art 6 para. 1 sentence. 1 lit. b GDPR. The personal data we collect about you, will be stored after we answered your request, for as long as we are obliged to store it in accordance to tax and commercial regulations. Subsequently the data will be deleted according to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, unless you have consented in a further storing.
