II. What are cookies?
Cookies are small data or text files installed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website or use a (mobile) application. The cookie file contains a unique code that allows your browser to be recognized by the website, web application or mobile application during the visit to the online service or during successive, repeated visits.
Cookies may be set by the server of the website or application you are visiting (“first-party cookies”), as well as by third-party servers (“third-party cookies”) that may or may not cooperate with this website or application. Third-party cookies cause certain data from your visit to or your use of our Website or App to be transmitted to the third party that placed the cookies.
Cookies generally make interaction between the visitor and the website or application easier and faster and help the visitor navigate between different parts of a website or application.
They contain information such as the visitor’s language preference, for example, so that he does not have to re-enter that information the next time he visits the same Web site. Some cookies ensure that a website appears graphically neat, others that a website application works correctly.
III. How long do cookies last?
Based on the duration of existence of cookies, we distinguish between temporary and permanent cookies.
