Most of the cookies we use are "session cookies." They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser during your next visit.

You can configure your browser to inform you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies in specific cases or generally, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Cookies that are necessary for the electronic communication process or for providing certain, desired features (e.g., shopping cart functionality) are stored based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

Mandatory statutory retention periods, particularly retention periods, remain unaffected.
