Cookie policy
We use “necessary cookies” on our site, which are absolutely required to enable the basic functions of the website. Data processing with the help of “necessary cookies” is based on Article 6 (1) f) GDPR, as otherwise basic functions of the website are not guaranteed or limited. In addition, we also use “functional cookies”, which are required, for example, to allow the website to remember any settings you make, to provide enhanced and more personal features and to improve our Website. Data processing with the help of “functional cookies” is also based on Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. With the use of “Performance-Cookies” it can be determined, among other things, where visitors come to our site to record your preferences in relation to advertising and marketing communications. The use of performance cookies requires your consent and is thus based on Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR.
We use Google Analytics, a popular web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. Google Analytics uses cookies to help us to analyse how users use the site. It counts the number of visitors and tells us things about their behaviour overall – such as the typical length of stay on the site or the average number of pages a user views.
The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of our website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.
Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google undertakes not to associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. By using this website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.
Most browsers accept cookies automatically but allow you to disable them. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Some features of the Services may not work properly without cookies. Some web browsers (including Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome) incorporate a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) or similar feature that signals to websites that a User does not want to have his or her online activity and behaviour tracked. If a website that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, the browser can block that website from collecting certain information about the browser’s User. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and DNT signals are not yet uniform. Because there is not yet an accepted standard for how to respond to browser DNT signals, we do not currently respond to them. You also can typically remove and reject Cookies or Local Storage from the Services with your browser settings. Many browsers are set to accept Cookies and Local Storage until you change your settings. If you remove or reject Cookies or Local Storage, it could affect how the Services work for you. In all circumstances, we may perform the foregoing information collection practices directly or use a third-party vendor to perform these functions on our behalf. Also, if you access the Website or the Services from a social networking service, we may share information with such social networking service in accordance with this Privacy Policy and to the extent permitted by your agreement with such social networking service and its privacy settings.
