Cookies
Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure.

Some cookies are “session cookies.” Such cookies are automatically deleted after your browser session ends. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize you when you return to our website.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict, or prevent the setting of cookies. Many browsers can be configured so that cookies are deleted automatically when the program is closed. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

The setting of cookies necessary for electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions you desire (e.g., shopping cart) is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services.

We use Google Analytics from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, as an analysis service for the statistical evaluation of our online offering.

External Links
Our website contains links to external third-party websites, the content of which we have no influence over. Therefore, we cannot assume any liability for these external contents. The respective provider or operator of the pages is always responsible for the content of the linked pages.

At the time of linking, the external pages were checked for possible legal violations. Illegal content was not recognizable at the time of linking. However, continuous monitoring of the content of linked pages is not reasonable without concrete evidence of a legal violation. Upon notification of violations, we will remove such links immediately.

GDPR. These are – unless otherwise specified – the EU Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses according to Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914 of 4 June 2021. A copy of these Standard Contractual Clauses can be viewed at:
https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32021D0914&from=DE

In addition, we obtain your consent in accordance with Art. 49 (1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR before such a third-country transfer, which you provide through the consent manager (or other forms, registrations, etc.).
