Cookie definition

A cookie is a small file that stores Internet settings. Almost every website uses cookie technology. It is downloaded by your Internet browser on the first visit to a website. The next time this website is opened with the same user device, the cookie and the information stored in it is either sent back to the website that created it (first-party cookie) or sent to another website it belongs to (third-party cookie). This enables the website to detect that you have opened it previously with this browser and in some cases to vary the displayed content.

Cookies are useful, as they can improve the user experience on opening a website that you have already visited a number of times. Provided you use the same user device and the same browser as before, cookies remember for example your preferences, how you use a site, and adapt the displayed offerings to be more relevant to your personal interest and needs.

Depending on their function and intended purpose, cookies can be divided into two categories on this website:

1. Essential cookies

2. Cookies requiring consent

Essential cookies, which can also be described as "strictly necessary" cookies, ensure functions without which you would not be able to use this website as intended. These cookies are used exclusively by this website and are therefore so-called first-party cookies.

A first-party cookie also saves your decision regarding the use of cookies on this website. Your consent is not required for the use of essential cookies.

Essential cookies cannot be disabled on our website itself. In general, you can disable cookies in your browser at any time. Most browsers offer the following options within the privacy settings:

• Do not accept cookies
• Delete all cookies when closing the browser
• Do not accept cookies from third parties (e.g. advertising banners)
• Ask for permission for each cookie
