Our website works much better with cookies, as they allow access to page navigation, secure areas of our site and much more.
These cookies enable us to analyse statistics on website use based on anonymous and pseudonymous data so that we can optimise the user experience.
We use cookies to show you customised content and targeted advertising. You can find further information about our cookies under cookie guidelines, data protection and imprint.

Cookies make websites work better

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer by websites or sometimes by e-mails. They provide useful information to companies. For you, the user, it means you can use the site more efficiently, for example, by not having to re-enter details each time you visit. Cookies also make sure you receive relevant information from us.

We use two types of cookies on our websites:

  • Session cookies which are deleted after each visit
  • Persistent cookies which remain in place throughout multiple visits to our website.

All of these cookies are essential for using our websites successfully. 

Session cookies are used by a server to store information about activities on our sites so that users can easily pick up where they left off on those sites. As a rule, websites have no "memory". Cookies tell the server what pages to show the user to save the user having to remember or start navigating the site all over again. Cookies act as a sort of “bookmark” within our sites.

Persistent or tracking cookies are used to store user preferences. You can restrict, delete or disable cookies via your browser's settings if you wish, but this will restrict your use of functions on our sites. For more information about how to disable cookies, please go to the About cookies website.

Here is a list of our essential cookies plus a brief description:

    These cookies are created to direct the user always to the same server.
  • Akamai: RT
    This cookie helps us to measure the loading times of individual pages, which we can use to analyse and improve our website. 
  • XSRF-TOKEN: 
    Used to prevent Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). CSRF is an attack on a computer system where the attacker performs a transaction in a web application.
  • JSESSIONID:
    This cookie identifies you as a visitor when navigating between different pages, and stores specific characteristics and settings for displaying teasers, etc. This cookie will be deleted automatically once you leave the website.

    These cookies are used to collect statistical information about user behaviour, which we use to improve the website. These cookies collect information in an anonymous form, e.g. the number of visitors to the site, where visitors have come to the site from and which pages they have visited. This information is saved beyond the end of the session and will be available for the next session.
  • Google Tag Manager: gtm_internal, universalClickID:
    We use a Google Tag Manager cookie to exclude our internal users from website statistics.  We use another cookie to make our analyses on the website more accurate.

(“Google”) so that it can differentiate between cases when the forms provided on this website are completed by a natural person or misused by automated machine processing. This involves sending the IP address and possibly other data required by Google for reCAPTCHA to Google. Google's privacy policy, which contains different provisions, applies here. By using the website, you are giving your implied consent to those provisions. Please do not use the website if you object to the provisions of the privacy policy.
