About cookies

The user can disable the use of cookies on their computer or delete them. (Depending on the browser: via the Settings or Options menu.) Browsers generally allow the placement of cookies by default. Cookies can be distinguished based on their validity period. Some cookies last only until the browser is closed (temporary cookies), or until a given task is completed. Certain cookies remain stored on the user’s computer beyond the session (persistent cookies). These can be deleted by the visitor at any time. Information collected by first-party cookies can only be processed and used by the given website. A website may also use external services, which in turn use their own cookies. These are called third-party cookies. More information on the management of these cookies can be found on the websites of the respective service providers, as data controllers. According to the opinion of the EU Data Protection Working Party, users must be informed even about the use of cookies that do not require consent.
