Preamble

STABILO International GmbH is pleased that you are visiting our website. Data protection and data security when using our website are very important to us. We would therefore like to inform you at this point about which cookies and similar technologies we use. Since changes in legislation or changes to our internal company processes may require an adjustment to this Cookie Policy, we ask you to read through this Cookie Policy regularly.

Scope

This Cookie Policy applies to the national and international websites and digital offerings operated by STABILO International GmbH, to the extent that reference is made to this Cookie Policy.

General Information on Cookies

Cookies are small files that contain certain information and are stored on your end device, such as your language settings or login information. Cookies are set either by partners – in which case they are referred to as so-called first-party cookies – or by certain third parties whose services are used; in this case they are referred to as third-party cookies.

We use cookies to provide and optimize our website, to support advertising and marketing measures, and to recognize returning visitors and obtain information about their usage behavior and presumed interests.

To the extent that individual cookies or integrated services transmit personal data to countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, this is done exclusively in compliance with the statutory requirements of the GDPR, in particular on the basis of adequacy decisions or appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 44 et seq. GDPR.

The granting of consent is voluntary. You may revoke or adjust any consent once given at any time with effect for the future, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out prior to the revocation.

Categories of Cookies and Legal Bases

Various types of cookies are used on our website. We use the following categories of cookies on our website:

• Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are required for technical reasons so that you can visit our website and use the functions we offer. They are necessary for us to be able to display our website at all. They are also necessary so that you can navigate our website in a user-friendly manner and use its functions, e.g. to set your privacy preferences, to log in, or to fill out forms. This category of cookies does not require consent under applicable law. The storage and reading of technically necessary cookies is carried out on the basis of the applicable statutory provisions regarding the storage of information on end devices as well as on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If you block strictly necessary cookies, we may not be able to display our website in its full scope.
• Performance cookies: These cookies enable us to carry out an analysis of website usage and to improve the performance and functionality of our website. For example, information is collected about how our website is used by visitors, which pages are accessed most frequently, or whether error messages are displayed on certain pages. Performance cookies also serve to enable requested functions, e.g. the playing of videos. For cookies that are not technically necessary, or so-called third-party cookies, we require your consent. If you have given us your consent to the use of a non-technically-necessary cookie on the basis of a notice provided by us on the website ("cookie banner"), the storage and reading of information on your end device is carried out on the basis of your consent as well as the applicable statutory provisions. You may revoke this consent at any time for the future by deactivating the cookies in your browser settings or in our cookie consent manager CCM19 under "COOKIE SETTINGS". The subsequent processing of your personal data is carried out on the basis of your expressly granted consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You may also revoke this consent at any time for the future by deactivating the cookies in your browser settings or in our cookie consent manager.
