2.4 Duration of storage of personal data
We will delete your personal data as soon as they are no longer required for the purposes mentioned above, unless statutory obligations to retain data preclude deletion.


3. Cookies

We use so-called cookies for web analysis purposes, in order to make our website more user-friendly and effective. Cookies are text files that are stored on your device.

Optional cookies may contain functions that go beyond the scope of the use of technically required cookies. If links to personal data are established using optional cookies for analysis purposes, the legal basis for your consent is Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR. We use these cookies for website analysis. For more information, please refer to the section “Website analysis”.
