About cookies

This site uses cookies. The use of cookies is common practice on most major websites.

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on the user’s device to collect information on visits to the site. This information includes, for example,

  • the number of visitors to the site
  • the devices used to access the site
  • the web addresses from which users access the site
  • the individual pages accessed by visitors.

Visitors cannot be identified by cookies alone. We do not use cookies to store the names, email addresses, phone numbers or home addresses of visitors. In addition, this type of information cannot be independently linked to any individual person.

Cookies do not cause damage to the user’s device or files.

We use cookies for the following purposes:

The site’s web analytics tool (Google Analytics) uses cookies to collect statistics. We collect this information to analyse the numbers of visitors, the attractiveness of the site’s content and how visitors use the service, and to develop the site. For more information on how Google Analytics processes data, visit https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Most information collected by cookies is pseudonymised. This means that personal data has been processed in a way that makes it impossible to link them to any individual user without additional information. For example, a user’s IP address is pseudonymised as part of the use of web analytics tools. The data are not combined with other data.
