4. What are Cookies and what do we use Cookies for?
Our websites use Cookies. Cookies are small, often encrypted text files, located in browser directories. We use Cookies to help you navigate our website efficiently and perform certain functions. Cookies collect information and technical details on your use of our website such as the pages you have visited, choices you have made from menus, any specific information you have entered into forms and the time and date of your visit.
There are three types of Cookies: Session Cookies, Permanent Cookies and Third-Party Cookies.
Most Cookies used by our websites are Session Cookies. Session Cookies allow our websites to link the actions of a user during a browser session. They are used for a variety of purposes such as remembering your language settings. Session Cookies expire after a browser session and will not be stored for a longer term.
Persistent Cookies are stored on a user's device in between browser sessions which allows the preferences or actions of the user to be remembered across our websites. We use Persistent Cookies in particular to remember your preferences and choices when you use our websites so that you do not have to input your details multiple times, to remember how you have customised your use of our websites and to compile anonymous, aggregated information for statistical and evaluation purposes to help us understand how users use the website and help us improve the structure of our website.
Our website also uses Google Analytics which is a web analytics tool offered by Google Inc. that generates detailed statistics about a website's traffic and traffic sources. We use Google Analytics for statistical reasons, e.g. to measure how many users have clicked at a certain product information. Google Analytics uses Cookies to obtain information about your use of our website including your IP-address. As your IP-address is an individual element that would allow identifying you, we have implemented a specific code to ensure that your IP-address will only be collected in a shortened and anonymised form. Thus, Google will not be able to identify you from the IP-address that is collected from you when using this website. The information collected by this Cookie will be transferred to Google Inc. in the United States of America.
You may opt out of Google Analytics by using the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en
