What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work, to improve their performance and to provide information to the operators of the site.
How we use cookies
21X AG uses cookies and similar technologies on this website for the following purposes:
- Strictly necessary cookies — required for the operation of the website (e.g. session handling, security, load balancing and remembering your cookie preferences). These cannot be switched off.
- Analytics cookies — we use Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website (pages visited, time on site, approximate location at city level). These cookies work with a pseudonymous identifier assigned to your browser. We do not use this identifier to determine your identity, but the data constitutes personal data within the meaning of the GDPR. We use it to improve our website and its content. These cookies are only set with your consent.
- Embedded content — some pages contain content embedded from third parties (for example videos). These providers may set their own cookies when you view the embedded content.

Managing your consent and your cookies
Withdrawing consent: You can change or withdraw your cookie consent at any time by opening the cookie settings: (insert the link or button that reopens the consent banner). Withdrawal is as simple as granting consent and takes effect for the future.
Browser settings: Independently of this, you can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. You can block or delete cookies already stored on your device and set most browsers to prevent cookies from being placed. If you do this, you may have to manually adjust some preferences on every visit and some functions of the website may not work as intended.
Google Analytics opt-out: To opt out of Google Analytics across all websites, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Legal basis
Where we store information on your device or access information already stored there, and this is strictly necessary in order to provide the service you have expressly requested, we do so on the basis of § 25 (2) no. 2 TDDDG. The subsequent processing of that data is based on our legitimate interest in providing a secure and functioning website (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).
In all other cases — in particular for analytics cookies and for cookies set by embedded content — storage and access take place on the basis of your consent (§ 25 (1) TDDDG). The subsequent processing of that data is likewise based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. The withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
