(1) When you use our website, cookies are stored on your computer. Cookies serve to make the website more user-friendly and effective overall. They cannot run programs or transmit viruses to your computer. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your hard disk and assigned to the browser you use and through which certain information flows to the entity that sets the cookie.
(2) Some cookies are set by us via our website. This means that the respective third party who sets the cookie obtains knowledge of personal data (e.g. at least the IP address) of the users of our website. Without this transmission, these third-party contents could not be displayed in the browser of the individual user of our website; the communication of the data listed in Section 3 is therefore necessary for the presentation of these contents. Where possible, we only use third-party content from those providers that use the IP address of the user of our website solely for the purpose of transmitting the content. We will inform you in detail below about the integration of third-party content.

(a.1) fe_typo_user: storage of user settings
(a.2) PHPSESSID: Storage of user settings
b) Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete cookies at any time in the security settings of your browser.
