These so-called session-cookies are necessary to identify the user\u2019s session. To do this a 32-character long code (e.g. \u201c39f72b72baa21f3bb19d0bac95161617\u201c) is stored on the user\u2019s device and deleted as soon as the browser is closed.<br \/>\n<strong>\u2022 Permanent cookies<br \/>\n<\/strong>These are only used to save the users selected language. If a user switches the site&#8217;s language to English, the web browser stores a cookie storing this information and the next time the user visits the site the page is automatically switched to English.<br \/>\n<strong>\u2022 3rd party cookies<br \/>\n<\/strong>External integrated scripts (e.g. Google Analytics or Social Sharing Buttons by Facebook, \u2026) can also store cookies on a user\u2019s system.<\/p>\n<p>We use our cookies to improve on the usability of our service.

This is done using cookies, which allow to analyse the users. All data gathered in this is transferred to the providers server and stored there.<br \/>\nYou can prevent this by setting your browser to never store cookies.<br \/>\nWe have reached a corresponding agreement with the provider for contract data processing.<\/p>\n<p>All data processing is in accordance with legal regulations \u00a7 96 (3) TKG as well as Art 6 (1) lit a (consent) and\/or f (justified interest) of the GDPR.<\/p>\n<p>All data collected is pseudonymized and only used to improve our service and marketing.<br \/>\nFurther information can be found at Terms of use and privacy of Google Analytics can be found at http:\/\/www.google.com\/analytics\/terms\/de.html and https:\/\/www.google.de\/intl\/de\/policies\/.<\/p>\n<p>If you do not authorize Google Analytics to process your data, you can deactivate it by clicking the following <span class=\"code-example\"><span class=\"borlabs-cookie-open-dialog-preferences \" data-borlabs-cookie-title=\"link\" data-borlabs-cookie-type=\"link\" ><\/span><\/span>. After that, Google Analytics will no longer be included on the STUWO website (from the next page view).
