COOKIES AND THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO DIRECT ADVERTISING
Cookies are small files that are stored on users' computers. Various types of information can be stored in cookies. A cookie is primarily used to store information about a user (or the device on which the cookie is stored) during or after their visit to an online offering. Temporary cookies, or “session cookies” or “transient cookies,” are cookies that are deleted after a user leaves an online offering and closes their browser. Such a cookie can store, for example, the contents of a shopping cart in an online shop or a login status. Cookies that remain stored even after the browser is closed are referred to as “permanent” or “persistent.” For example, the login status can be stored if users visit the site after several days. Such cookies can also store the interests of users, which are used for reach measurement or marketing purposes. Cookies that are offered by providers other than the controller who operates the online service are referred to as “third-party cookies” (otherwise, if they are only their cookies, they are referred to as “first-party cookies”).
We may use temporary and permanent cookies and provide information about this in our privacy policy.
If users do not want cookies to be stored on their computer, they are asked to deactivate the corresponding option in their browser's system settings. Stored cookies can be deleted in the browser's system settings. The exclusion of cookies may lead to functional restrictions of this online offer.
A general objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can be declared for a large number of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the US website http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. Furthermore, the storage of cookies can be achieved by disabling them in your browser settings. Please note that in this case, not all functions of this online service may be available.
DELETION OF DATA
The data we process will be deleted or restricted in its processing in accordance with Articles 17 and 18 of the GDPR. Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, the data stored by us will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for its intended purpose and there are no legal retention obligations that prevent deletion. If the data is not deleted because it is required for other and legally permissible purposes, its processing will be restricted. This means that the data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax reasons.
In accordance with legal requirements in Germany, data is retained for 10 years in particular in accordance with Sections 147 (1) AO, Section 257 (1) No. 1 and 4, (4) HGB (books, records, management reports, accounting documents, trading books, documents relevant for taxation, etc.) and for 6 years in accordance with Section 257 (1) No. 2 and 3, (4) HGB (commercial letters).
