Use of cookies
Cookies are text files that gather data from websites or domains visited by a user and that are saved by the browser on the user’s computer. Cookies are mostly used to save information about a user during or after his or her visit to online offerings. Saved information includes, among others, languages settings for a given website, the login status, the shopping cart, or the spot where a video was watched. By cookies, we also understand other technologies that have the same functions as cookies (e.g., when information provided by users is saved with pseudoanonymous online identification processes, also known as “user IDs”).
The following cookie types and functions exist:
- Temporary cookies (also called session cookies): temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left specific online offerings and closed his or her browser.
- Permanent cookies: permanent cookies will be stored even after the browser has been closed. For instance, this allows for the login status to be saved or to directly display preferred content whenever a user returns to a website. In addition, user interests that are used for measuring a website’s reach or for marketing purposes may remain on such cookies.
- First party cookies: first-party cookies are cookies that we set ourselves.
- Essential (also called required or strictly necessary) cookies: some cookies may be strictly necessary to operate a website (e.g., to store login information and other user information or for security reasons).
- Performance, marketing and personalization cookies: cookies are generally also used to measure a website’s reach and to create a user profile with information about a user’s interests or behavior on specific websites (e.g., specific content viewed, functions used, etc.). Among others, such profiles are used to display content that might meet a user’s potential interests. This process is also known as “tracking,“ which refers to following a user’s potential interests. Wherever we use cookies or “tracking” technology, we will let you know about this in a separate data protection policy or when we request your consent.
Information about the legal basis: the legal basis we rely on for processing your personal data with the help of cookies depends on our requesting your consent or not. If this is the case and if you accept the use of cookies, the legal basis for processing your data will be the consent provided by you. If not, we process data with the help of cookies based on our legitimate interest (e.g., the profitable operation of our online offerings and improvement) or, wherever the use of cookies is required, to meet our contractual duties.
General information about revocation and opting out: Depending if the data processing relies on a consent or a legal authorization, you have the option of revoking your provided consent or opting out of the processing of your data via cookie technology at any time (together called “opt-out”). As a first step, you can revoke your consent by adjusting your browser settings, e.g., by deactivating the use of cookies (this might affect the functionalities of our online offerings). You can also revoke your consent to the use of cookies for the purposes of online marketing via a number of different services, especially in the case of tracking, by going to the website http://optout.aboutads.info or http://www.youronlinechoices.com. Additional revocation options are available from participating providers and cookies.
Consent-based cookie data processing: before we process data gathered from the use of cookies or have them processed, we request users for their consent which they can revoke at any time. Before receiving this consent, we only place cookies that are essential for the operation of our online offerings. This use is based on our legitimate interest and the users’ interest in our online offerings’ expected functionality.
