3. Collection and Processing of Personal Data

When you access our website, the following data is stored in log files: IP address, date, time, browser request and general information about the operating system or browser. This usage data forms the basis for statistical, anonymous evaluations so that trends can be identified, on the basis of which we can improve our offerings accordingly.

4. Cookies

This website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored in your browser when you visit this website. Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after your visit ends. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them or they expire.

4.1 Cookie Consent (CookieYes)

We use the cookie consent service CookieYes (Jesson + Company Inc., USA). This service allows us to obtain and document your consent to the use of cookies. CookieYes stores a cookie in your browser for this purpose so that it can assign the consents you have given or their revocation. Processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) in legally compliant cookie management.

This website uses Google Tag Manager (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows us to manage so-called website tags via an interface. The Tag Manager itself does not set any cookies and does not collect any personal data. The Tag Manager triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data.
