When you visit the website, the cookie banner gives you the opportunity to choose whether or not you agree to the use of cookies that are not technically necessary. An overview of which cookies are involved can be seen in the cookie banner under "Services".

Essential cookies, which are technically necessary to ensure the all-encompassing use of the website, cannot be deactivated via the cookie banner. These cookies are called session cookies, which store a session ID. With the help of the session ID, your computer can be recognized if you return to the website  later.
Persistent cookies are used in connection with the analysis and tracking services we use. These are long-term cookies that remain on your computer. Persistent cookies store information between two visits to the website. Based on this information, you will be recognized as a returnee on your next visit. As mentioned above, you can reject these cookies because they are not technically necessary.
Cookies from third parties, called third-party cookies, which come from other servers, may also be set when using our website. As mentioned above, you can also reject these cookies, as they are not necessary for technical reasons.
Your browser enables you to ensure transparency. You can configure your browser settings according to your wishes and e.g. control the acceptance or rejection of third-party cookies or all cookies. However, we would like to point out that you may then not be able to use all functions of all websites.

What is the legal basis for processing this data and how long is it stored?
In the case of session cookies, the data is processed on the basis of legitimate interest in accordance with Article 6.1 (f) GDPR. Your consent is required for the use of persistent cookies and third-party cookies in accordance with Article 6.1 (a) GDPR, which we obtain via the cookie banner when you open the website.

The storage period for persistent cookies and third-party cookies is usually 12 months, after which the data is automatically deleted. Alternatively, you can also manually delete these cookies at any time using your browser.

Are there other recipients of the data?
The respective providers of the services have access to the information resulting from the cookies used for tracking and analyzing the website visit.

We use Google Tag Manager to manage tools and scripts on our website. The Tag Manager makes it easier for us to administrate tracking and analysis tools, triggers are created with which we determine which requirements must be met for a tag to be played out. The tool itself is a cookie-free domain and does not collect any personal data. If no consent was given for the use of tracking and analysis tools when the website was accessed via the cookie banner, the Tag Manager has no influence on this and the deactivation remains in place.

What is the legal basis for processing this data and how long is it stored?
Since the Google Tag Manager itself does not process any personal data, it does not require a legal basis in accordance with the GDPR for its use. For this reason, it is also active directly when the website is called up and not only after consent has been given via the cookie banner.

Are there other recipients of the data?
As a provider, Google may have access to the Tag Manager, since no personal data is processed via this application, this is not relevant to data protection law.
