If we disclose data to other persons and companies (processors or third parties) in the course of our processing, transmit it to them, or otherwise grant them access to the data, this is done only on the basis of a legal permission (e.g., if a transmission of the data to third parties, such as payment service providers, is necessary for the performance of the contract according to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR), you have consented, a legal obligation provides for this, or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g., when using agents, web hosts, etc.).

Cookies and Right to Object to Direct Marketing

"Cookies" are small files that are stored on users' computers. Various information can be stored within the cookies. A cookie primarily serves to store information about a user (or the device on which the cookie is stored) during or after their visit within an online offering. Temporary cookies, or "session cookies" or "transient cookies," are cookies that are deleted after a user leaves an online offering and closes their browser. For example, the content of a shopping cart in an online store or a login status can be stored in such a cookie. "Permanent" or "persistent" cookies are cookies that remain stored even after closing the browser. For example, the login status can be stored if users visit this after several days. Similarly, users' interests can be stored in such a cookie, which are used for reach measurement or marketing purposes. "Third-party cookies" are cookies that are offered by providers other than the controller who operates the online offering (otherwise, if it is only their cookies, they are referred to as "first-party cookies").
