Use of cookies

The website uses session-cookies (PHP session ID). Cookies are text files that are stored on the internet browser or through the internet browser on the computer system of the user. If a user visits a website, then a cookie may be stored on the operating system of the user. This cookie contains a distinctive sequence of characters which facilitates an unequivocal identification of the browser when the website is accessed again. Session-cookies differ from regular cookies by their "lifetime". While regular cookies are stored on the web browser, session cookies should be automatically deleted when the browser is closed.

Creation of log files

Description and scope of data processing

With every visit to the website, the webserver automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the visiting computer. In particular, the following data are collected:

  • the visited address (URL);
  • the IP address of the requesting computer;
  • the date and the time of the request;
  • the description of the web browser type used and/or the operating system used;
  • the address (URL) of the website from which the file was requested;
  • the access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.);
  • the data volume transferred.
The data shall also be stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

Legal basis and purpose of the processing

Legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Art. 6 (1) (f) EU GDPR which is required for safeguarding the legitimate interests of the PIK. The temporary storage of the IP address through our system is necessary to allow the delivery of the website to the computer of the user. For this purpose, the IP address of the user must be stored for the duration of the session. The data are stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimize our website and to ensure the safety of our information technology systems. In this context, the data shall not be evaluated for marketing purposes.

Duration of data recording

The data shall be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purpose for which they are collected. Where data are collected for the provision of the website, this is the case when a session ends.

In case data are stored in log files, this is the case no later than after six months. A data recording beyond that is possible in an anonymized form. In such case the users' IP addresses will be erased or encrypted, thus making an identification of the visiting client impossible.

Accessibility Statement

We have undertaken to use our knowledge and understanding of the ways in which different people access the internet, to develop a web site that is clear and simple for everybody to use. We have tested and improved accessibility to follow with current standards of web accessibility using the following tools:

We are aware however, that a number of the checkpoints of the WCAG are subjective – and although we tried our best to meet them squarely, there may be instances where interpretation may vary or that things can still be improved.
