Update to the Privacy Policy
This Cookie Policy is a supplement to the privacy policy of this website. The Cookie Policy specifies how a website uses cookies and what data it collects with them, while the privacy policy provides a more comprehensive overview of all data processing activities on the website and beyond.
What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small units of information, similar to text files, that can be stored and read on the end device. They serve various purposes, including maintaining basic website functions, security and privacy, providing optional website features, collecting statistical data on visitor traffic, and providing marketing systems. Practical examples of what can be stored in cookies include storing the login status in user accounts, the contents of shopping carts in e-commerce platforms, or a user ID to track behavior on the website.
The information can be stored technically in various ways. The best-known examples of this are HTTP cookies and cookie-like technologies such as local storage, session storage, or IndexedDB. Each type of storage has different properties that determine the technical handling, accessibility, and the controllers authorized to access the information. All of these types of storage are generally grouped under the term „cookies“ and are therefore referred to as such in this Cookie Policy.
What is the legal basis for setting/reading cookies?
The setting and reading of cookies is only permitted in the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA) in accordance with Art. 5 (3) ePrivacy Directive and Recital 66 ePrivacy Directive if a user has given their consent based on comprehensive information about the purposes of the processing. The website operator may also set cookies if they are strictly necessary to provide you, as the user, with the explicitly requested service, such as the basic content of this website or other strictly necessary cookies for basic website functions that are displayed to you without your consent.
What rights does the website visitor have?
Services and their cookies can be set and read on the legal basis of your consent or a legitimate interest. When you first visited this website, you were asked for your consent and had the opportunity to object to the use of certain services. We have explained which legal basis is used for which service in our consent dialog.
You have the right to view the history of your decisions, change your privacy settings, object to the use of services, and revoke your consent at any time. Below you will find ways to exercise your rights:
How do I manage cookies in a browser?
- How to clear cookies in a browser: To remove cookies from your device, you can clear the browser data in your browser's settings. This will delete all cookies from every website you have visited, and potentially also saved login credentials and website settings. In some browsers, you can delete only the cookies and similar data without deleting your entire browsing history.
- How to control cookies in a browser: If you want more precise control over the cookies of specific websites, go to the privacy and cookie settings in your browser. Here you can adjust the settings for the use of cookies on individual websites.
- How to block cookies in a browser: In most modern browsers, you can specify in the settings that no cookies are stored on your device. However, blocking cookies can cause certain services and functions not to work properly, such as logging in as a user. There are also extensions for many browsers that can block the setting of cookies on websites.
- How to manage cookies on this website: To adjust your cookie preferences on this website, you can change your settings at any time by clicking the link in the „Rights of the Website Visitor“ section.
You can find more information about how we handle cookies at devowl.io/en/rcb/cookie-handling/.
What types of cookies are there?
- Essential cookies are essential for the basic functionality of a website and enable features such as saving login credentials or accessing secure areas of the website. These include, for example, security cookies that can identify an unwanted bot on the website by storing an authentication key in a cookie.
- Functional cookies improve the user experience by storing information and preferences, such as language settings or website appearance settings, to enable a personalized display. This includes, for example, preference cookies that store the user's preferred video quality on a website.
- Statistical cookies collect data on website usage to gain insights into user behavior and optimize website performance. This includes, for example, a randomly assigned user ID that can be used to determine whether you have visited a subpage of the website.
- Marketing Cookies are used to track user behavior across different websites and to display personalized advertising based on users' interests and browsing behavior. These include, for example, advertising cookies that save an interaction with an advertisement on the website and forward it to advertisers, or a chat system for pre-purchase questions and customer support.
Who can set cookies on this website?
On this website, both the operator of the website and third-party services which are used on this website may set cookies and access its content. Who can access which cookies and their content differs between first-party and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are created by the visited website and can only be read by the website operator and integrated third-party services on this website. Third-party cookies are set by usually third-party services on other domains, can be read on all websites on which the service that controls the domain is embedded and, for example, used by advertising networks to track user behavior across different websites and offer personalized advertising.
