Cookies are IT data, primarily small text files stored on users' devices, such as computers, tablets, or mobile phones, which can be read by our IT system (own cookies) or third-party IT systems (third-party cookies).

They enable the display of the website in the user's chosen language and other Website settings selected by the user. "Cookies" typically contain the name of the originating website, the duration of their storage, and a unique identifier.

A Pixel is a piece of software code that allows tracking of Website Visitors and their behavior on websites containing pixels. This can range from basic tracking, such as whether a person visited the Website, to more detailed tracking of actions like adding a product to the cart, selecting a product, or submitting a form. Pixels can send collected information to a third party, such as the provider of the pixel code.
