If personal data is also processed through individual cookies we use, the processing takes place in accordance with Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR either to implement the contract or in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR to protect our legitimate interests the best possible functionality of the website as well as a customer-friendly and effective design of the page visit.
