Cookie Notice

1. Introduction
Our website nova-search uses cookies and similar technologies to make our offerings more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Below, we provide a brief explanation of what cookies are, which cookies we use, and how you can adjust your cookie settings.

2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (e.g., computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. They do not harm your device or contain viruses. Cookies are used to provide functionalities of our website, analyse user behaviour, and display personalised content to you.

3. Types of cookies used

  1. Strictly necessary cookies

    • These cookies are absolutely essential for the operation of the website. Without them, key functions (e.g., shopping cart, login, navigation) will not work.

    • Example: Storing your agreements to terms and conditions and cookie settings, session ID, load balancer key.

  2. Statistics cookies (Performance cookies)

    • These cookies allow us to anonymously evaluate how visitors use our website (e.g., which pages are visited most often). In this way, we can continuously optimise our offerings.

    • Example: Google Analytics (anonymisation of the IP address), Matomo (if used).

  3. Marketing/Tracking cookies (Advertising cookies)

    • These cookies are used to display advertising content to visitors based on their browsing behaviour, which matches their interests. This also includes social media plug-ins.

    • Example: Integration of Facebook Pixel, Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Insight Tag.

4. Legal basis and obligation to consent

According to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, the use of technically necessary cookies is permitted without requiring special consent. All other categories (statistics and marketing) are based on your informed consent according to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 TTDSG.
Before we use cookies beyond those that are technically necessary, nova-search seeks your active “opt-in”. You can revoke or limit your consent at any time (see point 6).
