Temporary cookies are deleted automatically after a certain period of inactivity (defined session timeout). Inactivity means that you have no longer visited our website in the meantime. The defined session timeout is usually three years from your first identification by the temporary cookie.
The legal basis for processing your data is our legitimate interest in the technical functionality of our website as well as the improvement of our service offer on the website (art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit f) GDPR) and your consent (art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit a) of the GDPR).
