This Cookie Policy explains how SpecTecular GmbH (“Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our websites at www.spectecular.de (“Websites”). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
In some cases, we may use cookies to collect personal data, or which become personal data when we combine them with other information.
Cookies are small data files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are often used by website owners to make their websites work or work more efficiently and to provide reporting information.
Cookies that are set by the owner of the website (in this case SpecTecular GmbH) are called “first-party cookies”. Cookies that are set by parties other than the owner of the website are referred to as “third-party cookies”. Third-party cookies enable the provision of third-party features or functions on or through the website (e.g. advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when you visit the website in question and when you visit certain other websites.
We use first and third party cookies for a variety of reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons to make our websites work and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies also allow us to track and target the interests of our users to improve the experience on our online properties. Third parties use cookies through our websites for advertising, analytics and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your rights in relation to cookies by adjusting your settings in the cookie banner. The cookie banner allows you to choose which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be refused as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.
You can find the cookie banner on our website. If you decide to reject cookies, you can continue to use our website, although your access to some functions and areas of our website may be restricted. You can also set or change your web browser to accept or reject cookies.
The specific types of first-party and third-party cookies used on our websites and the purposes they serve are described in the table below (please note that the specific cookies used may vary depending on the specific online properties you visit):

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may also use other, similar technologies from time to time, such as web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphic files that contain a unique identifier that allows us to recognize whether someone has visited our websites or opened an email containing them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to recognize whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third party website, to improve website performance and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many cases, these technologies rely on cookies to function properly, so refusing cookies will affect their function.
Websites may also use so-called “flash cookies” (also known as Local Shared Objects or “LSOs”) to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of our services, to prevent fraud and for other website operations.
If you do not want Flash cookies to be stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block the storage of Flash cookies by using the tools in the website storage settings area. You can also control Flash cookies by going to the Global Storage Settings panel and following the instructions (the instructions may explain, for example, how to delete existing Flash cookies (referred to as “information” on the Macromedia website), how to prevent Flash LSOs from being placed on your computer without being asked, and (for Flash Player 8 and later) how to block Flash cookies that are not provided by the operator of the site you are currently on).
Please note that setting Flash Player to restrict or limit the acceptance of Flash cookies may limit or inhibit the functionality of some Flash applications, including potentially Flash applications used in connection with our services or online content.
Third parties may place cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertisements through our websites. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites to provide you with relevant advertising for goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also use technology to measure the effectiveness of advertising. This may be done through the use of cookies or web beacons that collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide you with relevant advertising for goods and services that may be of interest to you. The information collected in this way does not enable us or the providers to identify your name, contact details or other details that directly identify you, unless you provide them voluntarily.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Therefore, please read this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
