Career - Cookie policy

In addition to our Privacy Policy, this cookie policy describes how cookies are used in connection with this website and how you can manage your cookie settings.

What is a Cookie?

When you visit a website, it may happen that cookies are set on your device or information is retrieved from previously set cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device. Cookies collect and store certain information for a certain period of time in order to ensure the functionality of the website and to make your visit more comfortable (for example, cookies remember your preferred settings). In addition, cookies help to better understand how visitors use the website. This allows for continually improving the site and its usability, as well as providing visitors with more relevant information.

How can you manage Cookies?

You can deactivate the use of cookies in your browser settings or set your browser to block cookies from certain domains. These settings can typically be found in the "Internet Options", "Tools" or "Settings" submenu of your Internet browser. How to disable cookies may vary depending on your browser. We would also like to point out that changes to the settings only affect the respective browser. If you use different browsers or change terminals, you may need to adjust your settings again.

Please note: If you choose not to use cookies that are necessary, this may affect the user-friendliness of this website.

What happens with data from Cookies which are deleted later?

Collection of your data through cookies can be prevented at any time. If cookies are deactivated, the information collected prior to the preference change may still be used in some instances, in particular in the case of performance cookies. However, no further information will be collected using the disabled cookie.

Which cookies are used on this website?

Depending on the lifetime, a distinction can be made between "session cookies" and "permanent cookies". "Session cookies" are temporary cookies that remain on your device until you leave the website. A "permanent cookie" will remain substantially longer or until you manually delete it on your device (how long the cookie stays on your device depends on the duration or expiration date of the particular cookie and your browser settings). Permanent cookies allow us to recognize you the next time you visit our website.

Various types of cookies can be used on this website:

Strictly necessary cookies: Strictly necessary cookies are essential for the correct functioning of our website and to improve your visit. These cookies are necessary for basic functions such as page navigation and online forms to function correctly.
Functional: Functional cookies allow a website to remember information that affects the way the website behaves or looks, such as your preferred language or the region you are in.
Analytics: Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by aggregating information into anonymous statistics (e.g. number of visitors and whether problems occur during the visit). We use this information to improve the website experience for all our visitors and to resolve issues quickly.

Note: If you want to prevent the use of cookies in your browser settings, avoid deactivating necessary cookies (see table below). Otherwise, individual website functions may malfunction.
