Cookie Policy

Last updated: 03 June 2026

This Cookie Policy explains which cookies and comparable technologies (e.g. local storage) we use. It supplements our Privacy Policy. The legal basis for non-essential technologies is your consent (Sec. 25 (1) TDDDG in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR); for strictly necessary technologies, Sec. 25 (2) TDDDG.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of text stored in your browser. Comparable technologies (local storage, session storage) serve similar purposes. They can be session-related (deleted when the browser closes) or persistent.

2. Categories

Necessary (no consent required)

These technologies are essential for operations, e.g. for login/session, security, shopping cart, language settings and storing your cookie choice. Without them key parts of the services do not work.

Statistics / reach measurement (only with consent)

For anonymised usage analysis we use Google Analytics 4 with active Consent Mode v2 (default: no analytics storage) and IP anonymisation – exclusively after your consent.

Marketing / external content (only with consent)

Where used, these serve the integration of external content (e.g. embedded maps, advertising networks). No marketing cookies are currently active on a permanent basis; map embeds use a two-click solution.

3. Concrete cookie and storage inventory

The following overview lists the storage mechanisms actually in use. It is maintained whenever the inventory changes.

4. Managing consent

On your first visit we ask for your consent via a cookie banner. You can enable or reject non-essential categories and change or withdraw your choice at any time via the cookie settings (footer link "Cookie settings") with effect for the future. Withdrawal is as easy as giving consent (Sec. 25 (3) TDDDG).

By default all non-essential technologies are disabled (opt-in). Before you grant your consent, in particular no Google Analytics cookies are loaded; this is additionally enforced technically via Google Consent Mode v2.

5. Retention

Necessary cookies are stored for the duration required (see table). Consent-based cookies are stored according to the respective provider''s information and at most until consent is withdrawn.

6. Browser settings

You can also manage or delete cookies via your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may impair the functionality of the services.
