3. Cookies, ConsentBit and similar technologies
3.1 General information about cookies
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies (such as localStorage and scripts). Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (e.g. computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website.
We distinguish between:
Strictly necessary (essential) cookies
Required for the basic technical operation of the website and for managing your cookie/consent preferences. These do not require your consent.Non-essential cookies and technologiesUsed for analytics, statistics or to improve user experience. These are used only if you give explicit consent via our consent tool (ConsentBit).
You can find further details in this Privacy Policy and, if available, in a separate Cookie Policy.
3.2 ConsentBit – Consent Management and Analytics
We use ConsentBit as our consent management platform and for privacy-friendly analytics on our website.
Provider: ConsentBit (ConsentBit ApS or the respective entity operating the service) – further information can be found in ConsentBit’s privacy documentation: https://www.consentbit.com (see privacy / data protection section there).
3.2.1 How ConsentBit works
When you first visit our website, ConsentBit displays a consent banner. Via this banner you can:
Accept all categories of cookies/technologies
Reject all non-essential categories
Select specific categories (e.g. “Analytics & Statistics”)
Your selection is stored so that we can remember your preferences on future visits. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time:
via the “Cookie Settings” or similar link/button on our website, or
by adjusting your preferences in the ConsentBit interface.
The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
3.2.2 Categories managed by ConsentBit
Depending on our configuration, ConsentBit may manage, for example:
Essential – technically required for the website (no consent required)
Analytics & Statistics – used to measure and improve website usage (consent required)
Further categories – only if explicitly mentioned in the banner / settings
The exact categories and individual tools are listed in the ConsentBit banner and settings interface.
3.3 Strictly necessary cookies (no consent required)
These cookies and similar technologies are required for the proper functioning of our website and for the consent management itself. They cannot be disabled via the consent banner.
Examples:
ConsentBit configuration / state
Purpose: Stores your consent choices (e.g. which categories you accepted or rejected) and ensures that the banner is displayed correctly.
Storage: Cookie and/or localStorage entry on your device.
Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in providing a secure, user-friendly website and documenting user consents).
Without these technologies, parts of the website and the consent management system would not function correctly.
3.4 Analytics & statistics via ConsentBit and Google Analytics (only with consent)
If you give your explicit consent to the Analytics & Statistics category in ConsentBit, we use privacy-friendly analytics functions provided via ConsentBit and/or Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website and to improve our content and user experience.
We use Google Analytics with IP anonymisation enabled (where supported), so that your IP address is shortened within the EU/EEA before transmission to Google.
Provider:
Google Ireland Limited
Gordon House, Barrow Street
Dublin 4, Ireland
For some processing, data may also be transmitted to Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Pages visited and sub-pages accessed
Time and duration of visits
Click paths and interactions on the website
Browser type and version
Operating system used
Screen resolution
Referrer URL (previously visited page)
IP address, which may be shortened/anonymised depending on configuration
Where technically and contractually possible, we configure analytics via ConsentBit to be privacy-friendly (e.g. IP masking/anonymisation, no cross-site tracking).
3.4.2 Legal basis and withdrawal of consent
Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR (your consent via ConsentBit).
You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by opening the “Cookie Settings” on our website or using the relevant function provided by ConsentBit and disabling the “Analytics & Statistics” category (or comparable label).
The lawfulness of processing based on your consent before its withdrawal remains unaffected.
3.4.3 No profiling for marketing purposes
We do not use analytics data obtained via ConsentBit for automated decision-making or for the creation of detailed marketing profiles. We do not link analytics data with other data sets in a way that would permit profiling of individual users for advertising purposes.
4. Marketing and LinkedIn Insight Tag / LinkedIn Tag Manager (only with consent)

4.2 Legal basis and deactivation
Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR (your consent via ConsentBit in the “Marketing” category).
You can withdraw your consent at any time for the future by changing your cookie settings in ConsentBit and disabling “Marketing”.

If data are transferred to countries outside the EU/EEA, this will only take place if an adequate level of data protection is ensured (e.g. by adequacy decisions of the European Commission or EU Standard Contractual Clauses).
