2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on or accessed from your device when you visit a website.
Cookies can, for example, enable a website to remember preferences, maintain necessary functionality, understand how visitors use the website or support other services requested by the user.
Similar technologies, such as local storage, pixels, tags or scripts, may perform comparable functions. References to “cookies” in this Policy include similar technologies where appropriate.
3. Types of Cookies
Cookies may be classified according to how long they remain on your device:
Session cookies are generally deleted when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.
Cookies can also be classified according to who places them:
First-party cookies are set by or on behalf of Umzugsklar.
Third-party cookies are set by external service providers whose technologies are integrated into our website.
4. How We Use Cookies
Depending on the services and technologies enabled on our website, cookies may fall into the following categories.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website or a service requested by you to function properly.
They may be used for purposes such as:
- maintaining website security;
- remembering privacy and cookie choices;
- operating forms and essential website functionality;
- preventing fraudulent or malicious activity;
- maintaining sessions; and
- ensuring technical delivery of the website.
Because these technologies are necessary to provide the website or a service expressly requested by you, they may be used without optional cookie consent where permitted by applicable law.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Where used, analytics and performance cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website.
They may collect information such as:
- pages visited;
- approximate visit duration;
- interactions with website features;
- referring pages or sources;
- browser and device information; and
- technical website-performance information.
Where consent is legally required, these technologies are not activated until you provide consent through our cookie banner or preference centre.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies may enable additional functionality or remember choices you make.
For example, they may be used to remember preferences or provide enhanced website features.
Where these cookies are not strictly necessary, they will only be used after consent where required by law.
Marketing and Advertising Cookies
If Umzugsklar uses advertising or marketing technologies, these cookies may be used to measure advertising effectiveness, understand campaign performance or support personalised advertising.
Where required by law, marketing and advertising cookies will only be activated after you have given consent.
Rejecting these cookies will not prevent you from using the essential functions of the Umzugsklar website.
5. Cookies Used on the Umzugsklar Website
The specific cookies used on our website depend on the technologies and service providers currently implemented.
Our cookie banner or cookie preference centre should provide an up-to-date list of cookies and similar technologies in use, including, where applicable:
| Information | Description |
|---|---|
| Cookie / technology name | The name of the cookie or similar technology |
| Provider | Umzugsklar or the third party setting or accessing it |
| Purpose | Why the cookie or technology is used |
| Category | Necessary, analytics, functional, marketing, etc. |
| Duration | How long the cookie remains on the user’s device |
| Third party | Whether information is accessed by or transmitted to another provider |
The live cookie list displayed through the cookie preference centre forms part of this Cookie Policy and should be kept updated whenever website technologies change.
Important: Optional analytics, marketing or other non-essential technologies should not be listed as active unless they are actually implemented on the Umzugsklar website.
6. Third-Party Cookies
Some website functionality may be provided by third parties.
Depending on the technologies actually integrated into the Umzugsklar website, these providers may set or access cookies after the required consent has been obtained.
Third-party technologies could include, for example, analytics services, embedded media, advertising services or other external website functionality.
The identity of each provider, the relevant cookies, their purposes and applicable storage periods should be disclosed in our cookie preference centre.
Third parties may process information under their own privacy policies where they act as independent controllers.
7. Moving-Company Partners
Umzugsklar may share information submitted through our moving-request or quotation services with selected moving-company partners as described in our Privacy Policy.
This data sharing is separate from the use of cookies.
Moving-company partners do not automatically receive access to cookies stored on your device merely because your moving request is shared with them.
If tracking or other technologies are specifically used to measure referrals or interactions with moving-company partners, those technologies will be disclosed in the cookie preference centre and, where required, activated only after appropriate consent.
8. Cookie Consent
When you first visit our website, you may be presented with a cookie banner that allows you to make choices concerning optional cookies.
Where consent is required, you can choose to:
- Accept all optional cookies;
- Reject all optional cookies; or
- Manage preferences by cookie category.
Strictly necessary technologies may remain active because they are required for the operation of the website or requested functionality.
Optional cookies requiring consent will not be activated before valid consent has been obtained.
Consent is voluntary, and refusing optional cookies should not prevent access to the essential functionality of the website.
9. Changing or Withdrawing Your Consent
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of consent before its withdrawal.
After consent is withdrawn, the relevant optional technologies will no longer be used for future processing based on that consent. Cookies already stored on your device may remain until they expire or are deleted.
10. Legal Basis
Where personal data is processed through cookies or similar technologies, the legal basis under the GDPR depends on the relevant technology and purpose.
Where consent is required, processing is generally based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Processing associated with technologies that are strictly necessary for providing the website or a service requested by the user may, depending on the circumstances, be based on another applicable legal basis, including Article 6(1)(b) or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The storage of information on, or access to information from, a user’s device is additionally subject to applicable German rules governing cookies and similar technologies, including Section 25 of the Telecommunications-Digital-Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG).
11. International Transfers
Some third-party technology providers may process information outside Germany or the European Economic Area.
Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we will use an appropriate transfer mechanism where required under the GDPR. This may include an adequacy decision of the European Commission, Standard Contractual Clauses or another legally recognised safeguard.
Further information about relevant providers and transfers should be available through our Privacy Policy, cookie preference centre or upon request.
12. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we change the cookies, technologies or service providers used on the Umzugsklar website or when applicable legal requirements change.
The current version will be published on our website, and the date at the beginning of this Policy indicates when it was last updated.
