Cookies
What a cookie is. A small file your browser stores so a site can remember something between pages.
Cookies we use. We use cookies for two things: to make the site work, and, only if you agree, to count visits and measure our ads. The banner on your first visit lets you accept or refuse analytics and advertising cookies. Without your consent the analytics and advertising tags set no cookies and send no identifiers. Our own visit statistics (Umami, on our server in Germany) use no cookies at all and need no consent.
Your choice. Refusing is as easy as accepting: both buttons are on the first screen of the banner, and you can withdraw your consent at any time via the Cookies link in the footer.
How long.
