2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files or pieces of information that may be stored on your device when you visit a website.
Cookies can enable websites and third-party services to recognise a browser or device, remember preferences, provide technical functions, maintain security, measure website usage and, where permitted, support advertising or marketing activities.
Comparable technologies may include local storage, pixels, tags, scripts, device identifiers and similar mechanisms that store or access information on a user's device.
3. Legal Basis for Cookies and Similar Technologies
The storage of information on your terminal device or access to information already stored on your device is governed in Germany in particular by Section 25 of the Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (Telekommunikation-Digitale-Dienste-Datenschutz-Gesetz – TDDDG).
Where a technology is not strictly necessary, information is stored on or accessed from your device only after you have given your prior consent in accordance with Section 25(1) TDDDG.
Prior consent is not required where the requirements of Section 25(2) TDDDG are met, in particular where access or storage is strictly necessary in order to provide a digital service expressly requested by the user.
Where the use of cookies or similar technologies involves the processing of personal data, the relevant provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) also apply.
Consent-based processing of personal data is generally carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Processing that is strictly necessary for security, technical operation or another legitimate purpose may, where the statutory requirements are met, be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
4. Consent Management
When you first visit our website, you are presented with a consent management interface through which you can decide whether optional cookies and similar technologies may be used.
You can:
- reject optional cookies;
- review and customise your preferences;
- allow selected categories;
- allow all optional categories.
Optional services requiring consent are not intended to be activated before the relevant consent has been given.
Your consent decision may itself be stored in a technically necessary cookie or comparable local storage mechanism so that the website can remember your privacy preferences.
5. Categories of Cookies
5.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required for essential technical functions, security, consent management or the provision of a service expressly requested by you.
Where the requirements of Section 25(2) TDDDG are met, these technologies may be used without prior consent.
5.2 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies may store preferences such as language, display, video-player or other user settings.
Where such technologies are not strictly necessary, they are activated only after the required consent has been obtained.
5.3 Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics and performance technologies enable us to understand how the website is used, measure visitor interactions and improve technical performance and content.
Such technologies are activated only after prior consent where consent is required.
5.4 Marketing and Advertising Cookies
Marketing and advertising technologies may be used to measure advertising performance, recognise conversions, create audiences or, depending on the user's settings and consent, provide personalised advertising.
These technologies are activated only after the required consent has been given.

7. Google Analytics 4
Subject to your consent, we may use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Analytics enables us to analyse how visitors interact with our website. Depending on the configuration, information such as page views, session information, approximate location, browser information, device information and interaction events may be processed.
Google Analytics uses identifiers including the
_ga cookie and a property-specific
_ga_<measurement-id> cookie.
Google Analytics is activated only after the required consent has been given.
The legal basis for consent-based processing is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG.
8. Google Tag Manager
We may use Google Tag Manager to manage scripts and tags used on the website.
Google Tag Manager primarily acts as a tag-management system. Services loaded through the container are subject to their own privacy and consent requirements.
Optional analytics or marketing technologies must not be activated through Google Tag Manager before the required consent has been given.
9. Google Ads and Conversion Measurement
Subject to your consent, Google Ads and related conversion or advertising measurement technologies may be used.
These services can be used to determine whether a visitor reached the website following interaction with an advertisement, measure the effectiveness of advertising and, where enabled and permitted, support audience or remarketing functions.
Marketing and advertising technologies are activated only after the relevant consent has been given.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG.
10. Google Maps
Our website may integrate Google Maps in order to display geographical information, office locations or other location-related content.
Google Maps is provided by Google Ireland Limited.
When Google Maps is activated, your browser may establish a direct connection to Google servers. Information including your IP address, device and browser information and information relating to use of the map service may be transmitted to Google.
Where consent is required, Google Maps is loaded only after your prior consent.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG.
11. YouTube
Our website may contain videos embedded from YouTube, a service of Google.
When a YouTube video is loaded, a connection may be established with YouTube or Google servers and cookies or comparable technologies may be used.
Where technically possible, privacy-enhanced embedding methods may be used. However, interaction with a YouTube player can still result in technical information being transmitted to Google or YouTube.
YouTube content requiring consent is not loaded before the required consent has been given.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG.
12. Vimeo
Our website may contain embedded video content provided by Vimeo.com, Inc.
When Vimeo content is loaded, Vimeo may process technical information and use cookies or comparable technologies in connection with video delivery, player preferences, analytics and security.
Optional Vimeo content is loaded only after the required consent has been given.
The legal basis for consent-based use is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG.
13. Google reCAPTCHA
We may use Google reCAPTCHA in connection with forms and other website functions to protect the website against spam, automated submissions, fraud and abuse.
Google states that reCAPTCHA uses the
_GRECAPTCHA cookie when executed in order to provide its
risk analysis.
In addition, technical information such as IP address, browser and device information and interaction information may be processed as part of the risk assessment.
The legal basis for the processing must be assessed according to the specific implementation and necessity of reCAPTCHA. Where consent is legally required, reCAPTCHA will be activated only after that consent has been given.
14. Google Fonts
Where Google Fonts are loaded directly from Google servers, your browser establishes a connection to Google infrastructure in order to retrieve the required stylesheet and font files.
Technical information, including your IP address and browser information, may be transmitted in connection with this request.
Where remote Google Fonts require consent under applicable law, the fonts should not be loaded before consent is obtained.
To minimise external data transfers, fonts may alternatively be stored and delivered locally from our own website infrastructure.
15. International Data Transfers
Some third-party providers used on this website belong to international groups of companies or may process information outside the European Union or European Economic Area.
Where personal data is transferred to a third country, such transfer takes place only in accordance with Articles 44 et seq. GDPR.
Where an adequacy decision of the European Commission applies, a transfer may be based on that decision.
Where no applicable adequacy decision exists, appropriate safeguards may include Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European Commission or another transfer mechanism permitted under the GDPR.
16. Changing or Withdrawing Your Consent
You can change or withdraw a consent previously given at any time with effect for the future using the cookie or privacy settings made available on our website.
The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
After consent is withdrawn, technologies that depend on that consent should no longer be activated for future website use.
17. Browser Settings
You can also control, delete or block cookies using the settings of your web browser.
Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies or storage technologies may affect the functionality of the website.
Browser settings are separate from the consent choices made through our website's consent management interface.
