Strictly necessary session cookies

This type of cookies is required to make the website work. They are exclusively used by us during the session and are therefore so-called first-party session cookies. They help to make the page load more quickly and to limit the number of sessions originating from a user to prevent a website-overload. They remain valid during the session and are automatically deleted when you close the browser.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies save the choices you make while visiting this website in order to offer you an improved functionality and personal features. We use a "cookie notifier" cookie, which saves your decision either to agree with the usage of cookies on our website or not.

Analytical cookies

Analytical cookies allow us to analyze the way the website is used. This enables us to optimize its performance and increase user experience. Our website uses Matomo, formerly Piwik, an open-source web analytics tool. With this tool we track how often visitors use a page of our website, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from our pages. Your IP address will be processed in a pseudonymized manner by deleting the last three figures. That way we are no longer able to directly identify you as an individual. The software from Matomo is running on servers of our in-house service provider in Germany and the information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your pseudonymized IP address) will be stored on the server of our in-house service provider in Germany. The IP-address that is transmitted will not be merged with any other data collected by us. We will delete this data within three years.
