How we use cookies and analysis tools (Google Analytics) On our site, we use so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored permanently or temporarily on your computer or mobile device during your visit to our site. Here, we would like to inform you about how we use cookies.

Why do we use cookies
We use cookies to ensure the functionality of our site, for example, for the functionality of the shopping cart. We also use them to find out what you like the most, to tailor our online shop to your customer requests, and to make your navigation as comfortable as possible. This way, the site can, for example, show the page you like to see (with even more relevant information) so that you don't have to search long during your next visit. We also use cookies to optimize our advertising. This way, we can show you ads and/or products that may be of particular interest to you. In any case, our goal is to set up our site in the most interesting way possible and to continuously improve our performance and your user experience.

How and which cookies do we use
We use cookies, for example, to temporarily store what is in your shopping cart or at what stage you are with your order. Cookies are absolutely necessary to offer you these services. In addition, functional cookies are used, for example, to temporarily save your login details, to ensure that your data is secure when you are logged in and that the site's image is consistent, or to offer support for live chats. We use performance cookies, for example, to increase site performance by reducing page loading times for pages you visit. Finally, we use goal-oriented cookies to allow you, for example, to share content and assign “likes.” Most of the cookies we use are automatically deleted from your computer or mobile device at the end of the session. We also use permanent cookies that remain stored on your computer or mobile device after the end of the session. If you visit our site again, the inputs and settings you prefer will be automatically recognized. These cookies are automatically deactivated at the end of the preset period. They are used to make our site easier to use, more efficient, and more secure. Thanks to these cookies, information specially tailored to your interests is displayed on the page. With the retargeting technology we use, we can specifically target those users who have already shown interest in our online shop and our products with advertising. We are convinced that displaying personalized, interest-based advertising is generally more interesting for the user than advertising without personal reference. Advertising media is displayed in retargeting based on cookie-based analysis of the user's previous behavior. In this, we collaborate with partner companies. Therefore, when you visit our site, cookies from partner companies may also be stored on your computer or mobile device. These cookies are automatically disabled at the end of the programmed period.

What data is stored in cookies
In the cookies we use, no personal data is stored. The cookies we use cannot be assigned to a specific person. When a cookie is activated, it is assigned an identification number.

How to prevent cookie storage
Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can set your browser to not accept cookies or to always ask before storing a cookie from a visited site. You can also delete cookies from your computer or mobile device using your browser's corresponding function. If you decide to deactivate our cookies or those of our partner companies, you will not see certain information on our site and will not be able to use functions that could enhance your visit.

How we evaluate log files
For technical reasons, every time you access our site, your web browser sends us a series of usage-related data. These data are stored in log files called log files. These are the following data related to usage: date and time of opening our site, IP address of your computer or mobile device, address of the Internet page from which you access our site, amount of data transmitted, and name and version of your browser. Evaluating log files helps us further improve our site and make it user-friendly, quickly find and resolve errors, and manage server capacities more efficiently. By using log files, we can determine, for example, times when our site attracts more interest and provide the appropriate data volume to allow you to use it to the best of your ability.

How we use Google Analytics for web analysis
We use Google Analytics to continuously improve and optimize our site. Google Analytics is a web analysis service from Google Inc. Google Analytics generates detailed statistics on a site's traffic and its origin, measuring conversions and revenues. Google Analytics uses cookies, saved on your computer or mobile device, to allow an analysis of our site's usage by our users. Information obtained with cookies about your use of our site, including your IP address, is anonymized with the corresponding settings and then transmitted to Google. Google uses the information obtained with cookies to evaluate your use of our site on our behalf, compile reports on site activities, and provide them to us for analysis purposes. Google may also transmit this information to third parties, as required by law or if such third parties process data on Google's behalf. Google will never associate your IP address with other stored data. You can prevent the installation and recording of cookies by adjusting the corresponding setting in your browser. However, we emphasize that in this case, you will no longer see some information on our site and that some functions that should improve your visit will no longer be available. By using this site, you consent to the processing by Google in the manner described above and for the purpose mentioned. More information on data protection at Google is available here: www.google.com/privacy
