2.1 On our websites we use the so-called microdata (cookies) based on Section 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR.

Our interest in optimizing our website should be considered legal within the meaning of the aforementioned provision. Microdata are small files that are stored on your terminal device (computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website. Microdata do not damage your terminal device, do not contain viruses, trojan programs, or other malicious programs. Information which arises each time in relation to the specific terminal device used is stored in the microdata. This does not mean that we have immediate knowledge of your identity because of them. The use of microdata aims on the one hand to offer you a more comfortable use. For this reason, we use the so-called session microdata to acknowledge that you have already visited individual pages of the website. These are automatically deleted as soon as you leave our website. In addition, we use temporary microdata for ease of use, which are stored for a specified period of time on your terminal device. If you visit our page again to use our services, we automatically acknowledge that you have already visited us, what entries / settings you have made, so that you do not have to do the same thing again.

On the other hand, we use the microdata to statistically analyze the use of our website in order to optimize our offer and display information that is specifically tailored to you.

For this purpose, a microdata is created, with which data of interest are collected using a pseudonym. In this case, information about navigation behavior for anonymous marketing purposes is collected and stored in microdata files on your computer and analyzed by an algorithm.

In no case can this data be used to identify the visitor of the website. No direct personal data is processed, and no user profiles are merged with personal data. Such data processing shall be carried out in accordance with Section 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR.

• By selecting the symbol that appears on each advertising banner (eg "i") you will go to the respective website of the provider. There, the systematic retargeting technology is clarified again and the possibility of canceling the registration (opt-out) is provided. If you unsubscribe from a provider, the so-called exception microdata is stored on your computer, which prevents the provider's banner ad from appearing in the future. Please note that this unsubscribe can only be done from your computer and the exception exception data may not be deleted from your computer and if for any reason they are deleted you will inevitably have to repeat the exclusion procedure.

• Alternatively, you can use the objections presented in section 7.5 of these data protection terms.
