Cookies

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a website. They contain information that can be read again on your next visit, for example to remember language preferences or to ensure the functionality of the website.

2. Which cookies do we use?

This website only uses technically necessary cookies. Specifically, the cookie "i18n_redirected" is set to remember your selected language (German / English) for future visits.

For technically necessary cookies, no consent is required under § 25 (2) No. 2 TTDSG. The legal basis for processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in the proper operation of the website).

3. Reach measurement with Umami (cookie-free)

For the statistical evaluation of the use of our website, we use the open-source analytics software "Umami", which we operate ourselves on a server at Hetzner Online GmbH in Germany. Umami deliberately works without cookies and without local-storage entries; for this purpose no information is stored on or read from your device.

Since, in our assessment, no information from your terminal device within the meaning of § 25 (1) TTDSG is processed and no personal data is collected, no consent is required. Further details can be found in our privacy policy.

4. Session recording with Intellize Recorder (consent required)

If you have consented, this website loads the self-hosted "Intellize Recorder" (tr.intellize.de). The recorder captures anonymised sessions (mouse movements, clicks, scrolling) and accesses information on your terminal device for that purpose. Form-field inputs are masked client-side; recording stops automatically after 5 minutes.

The legal basis is your consent pursuant to § 25 (1) TTDSG and Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. Without consent, the recorder is not loaded. You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future.

5. No marketing or third-party cookies

We do not use any cookies for marketing, retargeting or advertising-related tracking purposes. No third-party cookies (e.g. Google Analytics, Meta Pixel) are set.

6. Storage duration

The language-preference cookie "i18n_redirected" has a maximum lifetime of 12 months and can be deleted manually by you at any time.

7. Managing and deleting cookies

You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, to allow individual cookies or to exclude the acceptance of cookies in general. Cookies already stored can be deleted at any time.
