2 GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT COOKIES

Cookies are small text files that we store on your device and that contain data such as individual page settings (e.g. language, screen resolution) and login data. We distinguish between necessary cookies, (optional) statistical cookies, (optional) marketing cookies and (optional) profiling cookies. For a more detailed description of the use of cookies, please see section 2.1. Cookies are stored for different periods of time, which is why we also distinguish between permanent cookies and session cookies (see section 2.2).

In addition to us (as an "own entity"), other entities ("third parties") may also process your personal data using their own cookies. For more information about such third parties, please see the section "First/third party cookies" (see section 2.3).

2.1 Categories of cookies

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function. Without these cookies, the website cannot be operated.

Statistics cookies

These cookies are used to improve the transparency of our website and thus your user experience by analysing your behaviour. For example, cookies collect information about how you use our website, the number of visits, the average time spent on our website and the pages viewed. Statistical cookies help us, for example, to determine which elements of our online offer are used most often and to further develop our website based on your needs. We also use statistical cookies to monitor and analyse your behaviour on our website ("user monitoring").

Marketing cookies

These cookies are used to offer you relevant content tailored to your interests. They are also used to manage ads and measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns. Cookies record whether you have visited a website and what content you have used on it. This is based on uniquely identifying your browser and your device. This information may be shared with third parties such as advertisers and used by them for their own purposes so that relevant advertisements can also be displayed to you on other websites. These cookies are often linked to the functionality of third-party websites.

2.2 Cookie retention period (permanent cookies and session cookies)

Cookies may be stored on your device for an extended period of time or temporarily.

So-called persistent cookies are stored on your device for a certain period of time until they expire (or until you delete them beforehand). For example, language settings are saved in this way so that you do not have to reconfigure them on our website.

A session cookie stores a session ID while you are active on our website. This prevents you from having to log in again, for example if you change the website on our website. Session cookies are deleted when you leave the website or cease to be valid when the session expires, i.e. when you leave the website or close your browser.

2.3 First/third-party cookies

A first-party cookie is a cookie placed by us as a controller or by our processors. ANDREAS STIHL Sp. z o.o. processes the data collected by its own cookies for its own purposes, regardless of whether you have installed the cookie yourself or use a cookie from another provider.

A third-party cookie is a cookie that is not placed through the website you are currently visiting, but by a third party. This third party may be, for example, one of our service providers, such as an advertising network operator. Third-party cookies come from various third-party domains, which can flexibly use cookies to monitor user behavior on our website and on third-party websites outside the third-party provider's offer (in particular in user-tailored advertising). When you visit a website where ads are placed through an ad network, ads from that website may store third-party cookies on your device. Although we allow third parties to access our website in order to install these cookies on users' devices, we do not have any control over how long these cookies are stored on your device. The data collected from cookies is processed by the third party for its own purposes and under its control, in accordance with the relevant Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy or jointly with us. This also includes third-party cookies from their social networks that allow you to share information with the relevant social networks.

3 MANAGING COOKIES

3.1 Browser Settings

Most browsers accept cookies by default. In addition to your rights as a data subject in relation to the processing of personal data via cookies (see section 5 of the Privacy Policy), you can object to the use of cookies at any time with effect for the future by setting your browser not to accept cookies or to accept only certain cookies, or to be notified when cookies are sent. As a result, you may not be able to take full advantage of all the features of our websites.

In principle, it is also possible to visit our website without optional cookies; however, using it without optional cookies may change its functionality or availability. If you want to take full advantage of the functionality of our websites, we recommend that you accept all cookies.

Please note that the selection only applies to the browser used to make the selection. If you use different devices or different browsers on your device, you will usually need to re-select cookies. In some circumstances, your settings may be reset to their default settings after updates or if you delete cookies from your browser, which may require you to reconfigure them.

3.2 Choices you make in our Privacy Preference Centre

If you allow cookies in your browser settings, a cookie banner will be displayed on our website. It allows you to manage your cookie settings, such as enabling or disabling optional cookies. Optional cookies are only placed if you have consented to the relevant category of cookies. Please note that necessary cookies do not require your consent and are placed regardless of whether you allow cookies in your browser settings.

You can withdraw your consent at any time in our Privacy Preference Center with effect for the future and change the selected categories of cookies. To do this, please use the "cookie settings" linked at the beginning of this text.
