Cookies
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files which
are saved in a user’s internet browser or by the user’s
internet browser on their computer system. When a user calls up
a website, a cookie may be saved on the user’s operating
system. This cookie contains a characteristic character string
which allows the browser to be clearly identified when the
website is called up again. We use cookies to make our offering
more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies also allow
our systems to recognise your browser after a page change and
to offer you services. Some functions of our website cannot be
offered without the use of cookies. These services require the
