Logfiles and Cookies
We use cookies that are only stored for the duration of the specific visit to our website (e.g. to enable the login or shopping basket functions). These ‘session cookies’ store a randomly generated unique identification number (session ID), which contains information about the origin and storage period. These session cookies cannot store any other data and are deleted as soon as you exit our website, log out or close your browser.
This Privacy Policy provides information about the use of cookies in the context of pseudonymous audience measurement.
If you do not want cookies to be saved on your computer, you can disable the relevant option in your browser’s system settings. These can also be used to delete any stored cookies. Disabling cookies may restrict your use of our website’s functions.
You can opt out of the use of cookies for audience measurement and advertising purposes. To this end, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s deactivation page (optout.networkadvertising.org) as well as the American website (www.aboutads.info) or the European website (www.youronlinechoices.com).
Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses ‘cookies’, text files saved on your computer that make it possible to analyse the website’s usage. The information generated by the cookie about your usage of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA, where it is saved. As IP anonymisation is activated on this website, however, Google will first truncate your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
Only on exceptions will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and then truncated. Google will use this information on behalf of this website’s operator to evaluate your usage of the website, create reports about website activities and provide the website operator with further services associated with the website and internet usage. The IP address transferred from your browser within the scope of the Google Analytics service will not be combined with any other data held by Google.
You can prevent the storage of cookies by activating the relevant settings in your browser software; you can prevent Google from acquiring and processing the information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at tools.google.com
We furthermore use Google Analytics to evaluate data from double-click cookies and AdWords for statistical purposes. If you do not wish us to do this, you can disable this option using the ad settings manager (www.google.com/settings/ads).
We have entered into an agreement with Google on the processing of order data and comply with the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.
