Cookies Policy

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

How do we use cookies?

This website uses technical cookies, third-party analytics cookies and third-party profiling cookies. Also this website uses so-called social plugins of social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or Google+.

By using this website you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this Cookie Notice.

Enabling these cookies is not strictly necessary for the website to work but it will provide you with a better browsing experience. You can delete or block these cookies, but if you do that some features of this site may not work as intended.

Details regarding these cookies may be found below.

There are various types of cookies, which can be divided into two categories: technical cookies and profiling cookies, the latter of which are used for marketing and promotional purposes. Cookies come in two flavors, first party and third party. First party cookies are set by the same domain as the page the user is currently viewing, while third party cookies are set by a domain different from the page the user is currently viewing.

Technical cookies

Technical cookies are mainly relevant for the functionality of the website. This cat-egory of cookies includes navigation and/or session cookies, which enable user-friendly navigation around the website. The group of technical cookies also encom-passes functional cookies, which enable the website to “remember” selections you’ve made (for example, the filter settings you selected or an automatic lan-guage preference for the website). In addition there are analytics cookies, which collect information such as the number of website visitors and the manner in which traffic arrives at the website.

Profiling cookies

The profiling cookie detect the user’s settings, preferences and actions; a user profile is created through these cookies. This also allows advertising messages to be combined with the interests of users, thus enabling advertising to be addressed to specific target groups.

As soon as the user opens a web page that utilizes this latter form of cookies, a banner noting that the operator of the website uses cookies for marketing purposes is displayed. The banner also informs the user that the site may allow third-party cookies. The banner links to a page with detailed information (where you are presently located).

The banner allows the user to give his or her explicit consent. The banner indicates that further navigation on the website signifies automatic consent to the use of cookies.

Clicking on the detailed information does not necessarily imply consent. The banner does not disappear after a certain time, but rather continues to be displayed until the user has either accepted cookies or has consciously navigated further.

The use of cookies may be declined either generally or selectively. If you do not want to accept our cookies, you can decline them through your web browser. The applicable function varies from browser to browser. Details may be found below. Please note that rejecting cookies completely will quite likely lead to limitations in the website’s functioning.

It may happen that what are known as third-party cookies (cookies from other advertisers) are used. Further information may be found in the relevant section. You can also explicitly block the use of third-party cookies in the respective browser settings.

Profiling Cookies – Retargeting

We emphasize that no personal data is stored through the profiling cookies maybe used, and that usage profiles are not matched with personal data. It is not possible to identify individual persons through the profiling cookie; rather, only information that enables the targeted compilation of anonymous information for interest-based marketing campaigns is stored. If you would like to stop profiling cookies from being placed, you can block them directly by using your browser settings (see descriptions below).

Web Tracking – Google Analytics

In order to continually improve and optimize our service, we use what are known as tracking technologies. This website uses Google Analytics, a web-analytics ser-vice provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies that enable the analysis of your website usage, for the purpose of determining the attractiveness of our website and improving its performance and content. The information that the cookie generates about your usage of this website (including your IP address) is transmitted to a Google server in the U.S. and stored there. On behalf of the operator of this site, Google uses this information to evaluate your use of the website, compiling reports about website activity and continuing to provide website-usage and internet-related services to the website operator. In addition, Google may transmit this information to third parties when doing so is required by law and/or where such third parties process the information on behalf of Google and/or other web-analytics service providers. Under no circumstances, however, will your IP address be associated with other data from Google and/or other web-analytics service providers.

You may decline the use of cookies by selecting the relevant settings on your browser; please note, however, that in this case you may not be able to use all of this website’s features to their fullest extent. In addition, you can prevent the data relating to your usage of the website generated by the cookie (incl. your IP ad-dress) from reaching Google as well as the processing of these data by Google, by downloading and installing the following browser plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

Google Adwords Remarketing

Google uses cookies, which are stored on your computer, for the purpose of analyzing how users utilize the website. The information that the cookie generates about your usage of this website (including your IP address) is sent to a Google server in the U.S. and stored there. Google subsequently shortens your IP address by cutting off last three digits, thus making a clear assignment of the IP address impossible. Google adheres to the privacy policy of the US Safe Harbor agreement, and is reg-istered with the Safe Harbor program of the US Department of Commerce. Google uses this information in order to evaluate your website usage, compile re-ports on website activity for website operators and continue to provide other services related to the website and the Internet. Google may also transfer this infor-mation to third parties, where appropriate, to the extent that it is required by law or that these third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Third party providers, including Google, display ads on Internet sites. Third party providers, in-cluding Google, use stored cookies in order to display ads that are based on the user’s previous visits to this website. Under no circumstances will Google associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. The collection and storage of data can be denied any time, with future effect.

You can disable Google’s use of cookies by visiting the page that al-lows you to disable Google’s ads. Please note, however, that you may not be able to use all features of this website to their fullest extent if you do so. By using this site you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner described above, and for the purposes outlined above. The collection and storage of data can be denied at any time, with future effect. No remarketing will be used on sensitive content sites with personally identifiable information.

Google Adwords Conversion Tracking

Here, a cookie is placed onto your computer by Google Adwords if you land on our website through a Google ad. These cookies expire after 30 days, and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of the website of an Adwords customer, and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this site. Each AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies thus cannot be tracked through the websites of Adwords customers. In-formation obtained using the conversion cookie is also used to generate conver-sion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Adwords customers know the total number of users who have clicked on their ad and have landed to the respective page with a conversion tracking tag. They do not, however, receive information through which they can identify users personally. If you do not wish to participate in the tracking process, you can also reject the cookie that must be placed to facilitate it; this may be done through a browser setting that generally disables the automatic placement of cookies. You can also disable conversion-tracking cookies by setting your browser to block cookies that originate from the domain www.googleadservices.com.
