Please note that if you choose to disable or refuse cookies, some parts of the site and its sub-domains may be inaccessible or may not function properly. Therefore, for a smooth and full use of this site it would be advisable for you to configure your browser to accept the receipt of such cookies.
Cookies are not harmful to your computer, tablet or smartphone. In the cookies generated by the site, no personally identifiable information is stored, only encrypted information.

Types of cookies

The site and its sub-domains use the following cookies:

Technical Cookies

These cookies are essential to enable you to browse the site and use its features. Without cookies some features may not be accessible or may not work properly.
Strictly necessary cookies are used to store an identifier in order to uniquely identify you from other users in order to provide you with a consistent and accurate service.

Performance cookies

These cookies may be ours or partners’, session or persistent. Their use is limited to the performance and improvement of the site. These cookies do not collect any information that can identify you. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated in an anonymous form and is only used to improve the functionality of the site.

Funktional Cookies

Cookies usually result from a user action, but they may also be implemented in the provision of a service, not explicitly requested, but offered to the user. They can also be used to avoid offering again to a specific user a service that has already been offered. Furthermore, these cookies allow the site to keep track of user choices. The information collected by these cookies is anonymous and cannot be traced back to user behaviour on other sites.

Third party marketing cookies

These cookies are used by partners of the site in order to offer advertisements to you when you visit other sites, for example showing the latest products you have viewed on the site. These cookies may also be used to show products that may be of interest to you or similar to products you have previously viewed. The use of these cookies does not imply the processing of personal data, but may allow the connection to the browser installed on your computer or other device used while browsing.

How to enable/disable cookies

Data protection regulations provide that you have the right to decide whether or not to enable cookies (“opt-in”), except for cookies that are strictly necessary for browsing, and that you can disable cookies that have already been accepted and administered (“opt-out”). The opt-out is envisaged for so-called ‘technical cookies’, as well as for cookies that are not among the ‘technical cookies’ previously accepted (‘opt in’) by the user.
