1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites function correctly or more efficiently, and to provide information to the website operator. Cookies can be session-based (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent (remaining on your device for a defined period).
Cookie
A small text file placed on your device by a website server. It contains information the site can read when you revisit. Cookies themselves cannot execute code or deliver viruses. They are uniquely assigned to your browser and can only be read by the web server that issued them.
Session Cookie
A temporary cookie that exists only for the duration of a browser session. It is automatically deleted when you close your browser. Session cookies are typically used to maintain state or preferences within a single visit.
Persistent Cookie
A cookie that remains stored on your device after you close your browser, until its expiry date or until you delete it manually. Persistent cookies remember your preferences or settings across multiple visits.

5. Common Questions About Cookies
Do I need to accept cookies to use this site?
Yes, in a limited sense. The essential cookies described in Section 3 are required for the site to render and operate correctly. However, because these cookies contain no personal data and are limited to basic site functionality, their use does not require explicit consent under Recital 25 of the ePrivacy Directive and applicable German Telemediengesetz (TMG) provisions.
Can I disable cookies?
You may configure your browser to refuse all cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being set. Note that disabling essential cookies may affect basic site functionality. Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers are provided in Section 6.
Does this site use cookies to track me across other websites?
No. This site does not use cross-site tracking of any kind. No third-party network has access to information about your visit through this site's cookies.
Is any personal data stored in cookies?
No. The essential cookies used on this site store only a boolean acknowledgement value (accepted or declined for the consent notice). No name, email address, IP address, device identifier, or any other personal data is stored within any cookie set by this site.
