2. What are cookies?

We use the term „cookies” to refer to cookie modules and similar technologies through which information can be collected automatically.
An „Internet Cookie” (also known as a „browser cookie”, „HTTP cookie” or „cookie”) is a small file consisting of letters and numbers that will be stored on a user's computer, mobile terminal or other devices through which the internet is accessed.
Cookies are installed via a request issued by a web server to a browser (e.g.: Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome). Once installed, cookies have a defined lifespan, remaining „passive” in the sense that they do not contain software programs, viruses or spyware and will not access the information on the hard drive of the device on which they were installed.
A cookie consists of two parts:
the name of the cookie; and
the content or value of the cookie.
From a technical standpoint, only the web server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that web server.

  • Persistent or fixed cookies – A „persistent” or „fixed” cookie is a cookie that remains stored on the user's device until it reaches a certain expiry date (which may be in a few minutes, days or several years in the future) or until it is deleted by the user at any time through their browser settings.
