In order for this website to function properly, the CMS system of this website may store small files - so-called cookies - on your device. This is common on most websites.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a web portal leaves on your computer, tablet computer, or smartphone (which your browser stores) when you visit it. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make websites more user-friendly, effective, and secure. For example, a portal can "remember" certain inputs and settings (such as login, language, and other display preferences) over a period of time, and visitors do not need to repeat them each time they visit and navigate the portal. Most of the cookies used by the website are so-called "session cookies". They are automatically deleted at the end of the visit. Other cookies remain stored on your terminal until you delete them. These cookies enable the portal to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

Do we use cookies?

According to my analyses, the CMS we use does not set its own cookies as long as you don't log in. However, we use individual external services (e.g. disclaimers, videos, etc.) that can set cookies.

Who uses cookies other than us?

Some external content (if any) embedded on our pages, such as videos, also use cookies to create anonymous statistics about previously visited pages and selected videos.

Control over cookies

Accepting cookies is not absolutely necessary for the use of the portal, but makes surfing more pleasant. You can block or delete cookies, but this may affect some of the portal's features.
You can set your browser to notify you when cookies are set, to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to refuse cookies in certain cases or generally, and to enable automatic cookie deletion when you close your browser. You can find out how to do this here: aboutcookies.org.
Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

The information collected through cookies is not used to identify you and the data is completely under our control or your control (if you delete it). The cookies do not serve any other purpose than those mentioned here.
