We take great care to ensure any confidential information remains protected, but we cannot guarantee the security of data sent over the Internet.
Use of ‘cookies’ (not the interesting, edible kind)
Like many other websites, ours uses cookies – small pieces of information that enable us to recognise you when you visit. They collect statistical data about your browsing actions and patterns and do not identify you as an individual. Cookies help us to improve our website and deliver a better service.
We use both “session” cookies and “persistent” cookies on our websites. We will use the session cookies to keep track of how you move around our website and to monitor user behaviour for statistical purposes. We will use the persistent cookies so that we recognise you when you visit our website.
Session cookies will be deleted from your computer when you close your browser. Persistent cookies will remain stored on your computer until deleted, or until they reach a specified expiry date.
For the analysis we use the Analysetool 1&1 WebAnalytics, a webanalyse service of 1&1 Internet AG. 1&1 WebAnalytics uses Cookies. The log-data on our server at 1und1 Internet AG will be anonymised after 7 days by the operater of the server.
Our website may contain links to other websites run by other organisations. This privacy notice applies only to our website‚ so we encourage you to read the privacy statements on the other websites you visit – while we have slight control freak tendencies, we are not responsible for the privacy notices and practices of other websites, even if you access them using links from our website.
This Notice was last updated in January 2019.
We review our policies on a regular basis and may update this Privacy Notice by posting a new version on our website.
You should check this page occasionally to make sure you are happy with any changes. We may also notify you of changes to our privacy notice by email.
That’s it! Thanks for reading.
