Use of cookies
Our website uses cookies. A randomly generated session code is stored in the cookie. If available, we also store an affiliate ID and the page from which you accessed our site. This requires you to have activated cookies in your browser settings. The cookies remain on your computer and enable us to recognise your computer again at your next visit (so-called persistent cookies). Accepting cookies is not necessary to visit our website. However, we would advise that the shopping basket function can only be used and products can only be ordered when cookies are activated.
What are cookies?
Cookies and flash cookies are small files that are stored on your data medium and store specific settings and data for exchange with our system via your browser. A distinction can be made between 2 different types of cookies: so-called session cookies, which are deleted as soon as you close your browser, and permanent cookies, which are stored on your data medium for a longer period or indefinitely. This storage helps us to design our website and our offerings appropriately for you and facilitates use, such as by storing specific entries you make so that you don’t have to continuously re-enter them.
Which cookies does www.ayer-cosmetics.com use?
Most of the cookies used by us are automatically deleted from your hard drive after the end of the browser session (end of the session - hence the name session cookies too). Session cookies are required, for example, to offer you the shopping basket function on multiple pages. We also use cookies that remain on your hard drive. On your next visit, it is then automatically recognised that you have previously visited us and which entries and setting you prefer. These temporary or even permanent cookies (with a lifespan of 1 month to 10 years) are stored on your hard drive and expire by themselves after the predetermined period of time. In particular, these cookies enable us to make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Thanks to this data, it is possible to display information specially tailored to your interests to you on the site, for example. The sole purpose of these cookies is to adapt our website to our customers’ requirements as much as possible and make surfing our website as comfortable as possible for you.
Which data is stored in the cookies?
No personal data is stored in the cookies used by www.ayer-cosmetics.com. Therefore, the cookies we use cannot be traced back to a specific person, including you. When cookies are activated, an identification number is assigned. At no point is it possible to match your personal data up to this identification number. At no point is your name, your IP address, or similar data that could enable the cookies to be traced back to you stored. Based on cookie technology, we receive only anonymised information, such as that about which pages of our shop were visited, which products were viewed, etc.
How can I opt out of the storage of cookies?
In your browser, you can choose for cookies to be accepted only when you agree. If you wish to accept just www.ayer-cosmetics.com cookies but not cookies from our service providers and partners, you can select the setting “Block cookies from third-party providers" in your browser. Usually, the menu bar of your web browser features a help function that shows you how to reject new cookies and deactivate those already received. You can deactivate or delete flash cookies, which are used by browser add-ons, by changing the settings of the browser add-on or via the website of the browser add-on’s creator. We recommend that when using shared computers that are configured to accept cookies and flash cookies, you always sign out fully when you are finished.
