Cookies

In short

This website uses cookies that are needed for it to work (your language and, after you sign up, keeping you signed in). Analytics and marketing cookies are only set if you agree in the cookie banner. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time under “Cookie settings” at the bottom of every page.

The cookies we use

• NEXT_LOCALE: remembers your language (for example “de”). Set by us (first party), kept for 1 year, strictly necessary.
• mw_key: keeps you signed in to your private profile and spot page after you sign up or open your private link. Set by us, httpOnly, kept for 30 days and renewed on each visit (until you log out), strictly necessary. mw_in (readable, no personal data) only tells the page that you are signed in; same lifetime.
• Google Analytics (_ga, _ga_*): counts visits and how the site is used. Set via Google Tag Manager only after you accept analytics. Google Ireland Ltd. processes the data on our behalf; kept for up to 13 months. Data may be transferred to the USA under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.
• Marketing (for example _gcl_au): measures whether our ads work. Only after you accept marketing; kept for up to 90 days.
• Your cookie choice itself is stored in your browser’s local storage (not a cookie) for 6 months, then we ask again.
