When you use our website, we place cookies on your computer. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information. Cookies are small text files assigned to the browser you use, which are stored on your hard disk. Cookies cannot run programs or transmit viruses to your computer. They serve to make internet services more user-friendly and effective overall.
We use two kinds of cookie: transient cookies (temporary cookies). and persistent cookies (permanent cookies). Transient cookies, also known as “session cookies”, are temporary cookies that are deleted automatically when the browser is closed. They are necessary for the functions of our online shop, and include an “anti-forgery” cookie to prevent hacking attacks, as well as a “last viewed products” cookie.
When you visit our online shop, data that are required for the correct function of the shop are deposited in persistent cookies on your computer. These are deleted from your computer automatically when their validity expires or you delete them yourself before the validity expiration. These include the “shopping cart” cookie as well as the “guests” cookie, which saves the shopping cart and billing information for non-registered users for 3 days. After 3 days, the cookie is deleted automatically.
We also use an “authentication” cookie, which maintains the login of our online shop. If you tick the box “remember me”, this cookie ensures that you remain logged in even after you close the browser. In this case the “authentication” cookie is a persistent cookie and is deleted only after 30 days. If you do not tick this box, the “authentication” cookie remains a transient cookie and will be deleted when you close the browser.
Of course you can also view our website without cookies. Most browsers accept cookies automatically.
