You can find information about all the cookies stored on your device in the (privacy-)settings of your browser.

Below we explain why this website uses cookies. In case of questions, please get in touch with us.

What types of cookies are there?
The question of which cookies we use in particular depends on the services we use and is clarified in the following sections of the Privacy Policy. At this point we would like to briefly explain the different types of cookies.

There are 4 types of cookies:

• Absolutely necessary / Business-relevant cookies
  These cookies are necessary to ensure the basic functionality of the website. For example, these cookies are needed when a user fills out a form and then continues surfing on other pages before sending it off. These cookies do not delete the form fields, even if the user closes his browser window.
• Functional cookies
  These cookies collect information about the user behavior and whether the user gets any error messages. In addition, these cookies are used to measure the loading time and the behaviour of the website with different browsers.
• Target-oriented cookies
  These cookies ensure better user friendliness. For example, entered locations, font sizes or form data are stored.
• Google Analytics Privacy Policy
  On this website we use Google Analytics from Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to statistically evaluate visitor data. Google Analytics uses target-oriented cookies for this purpose.
