Cookies

The website of Klinger Advantage uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are saved and stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.

Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string through which webpages and servers can be assigned to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual’s browser from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A particular internet browser can be recognized and identified by the unique cookie ID.

By using cookies, Klinger Advantage can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie the information and offers on our website can be optimized on behalf of the user. Cookies allow us, as already mentioned, to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not need to reenter its credentials every time he or she visits the website because this is done by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in the online shop. The online shop remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the internet browser used and thus permanently contradict the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

Essential Cookies

These cookies are mandatory for websites and their functions to work properly. Without these cookies eg services like our forms cannot be provided.

Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how you use websites. Performance cookies, for example, help us identify particularly popular areas of our website. This allows us to better tailor the content of our websites to your needs and thus improve our offer for you. The information collected with these cookies is not personal. Further information on the collection and evaluation of the information can be found in the section “Evaluation of usage data”.

Cookies for marketing purposes

These cookies are used to distinguish requests from different browsers and to store helpful information that can later be used by an application. They are also used to associate browser information with customer records.
