How can I disable or delete cookies?
Cookies only remember preferences and interests based on your browsing behaviour. Cookies are never used to read private data from your computer or to intercept passwords.
This concerns general visitor data, such as information about screen resolution, browser type and browsing behaviour. This also includes your IP address. However, we have stored the last part of your IP address anonymously. Your processed IP address cannot therefore be traced back to you directly.
IP addresses are processed for our functional and analytical cookies. The statistics and reports that result from this cannot be traced back to individuals.
Cookies can only be deleted by you, as they are stored on your computer or smartphone and depend on the programme you use to view websites. This programme is called an internet browser. Well-known internet browsers are Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari. Please check the manual for your browser.
You can also use your browser to indicate whether you want your browser to notify you when a cookie is placed.
Via the site www.youronlinechoices.eu/, you can indicate for multiple websites which companies are allowed to record your surfing behaviour and which are not.
What happens if you disable all cookies? If your preferences are no longer remembered, you will not be able to make optimal use of the website’s user-friendliness because, for example, you will have to enter passwords or login details every time.
