At least 50 cookies per domain
At least 3000 cookies in total<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat types of cookies are there?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
These cookies are necessary to ensure basic functions of the website. For example, these cookies are needed when a user places a product in the shopping cart, then continues surfing on other pages and only proceeds to checkout later. These cookies do not delete the shopping cart, even if the user closes his browser window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These cookies collect information about user behavior and whether the user receives any error messages. In addition, these cookies also measure the loading time and the behaviour of the website with different browsers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These cookies ensure a better user-friendliness. For example, entered locations, font sizes or form data are stored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These cookies are also called targeting cookies. They are used to deliver customized advertising to the user. This can be very practical, but also very annoying.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow can I delete cookies?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
