Our website uses or sets cookies in accordance with EU and Austrian law (Section 5 paragraph 3 E-Privacy-RL and § 96 paragraph 3 TKG 2003 -Austrian Telecommunications Law). Cookies help us to determine the usage frequency and the number of users of our Internet site, and allow us to design our offers so that they are as convenient and efficient as possible for you. The content of the cookies used is usually limited to an identification number and usage data that does not allow any personal reference to the user.
When cookies that contain personal data or that affect your privacy are used or set, Kremsmueller first obtains your proactive consent, in that you are required to navigate through a banner on our website that provides information about the purposes for which the cookies are being used, thus giving your consent to the setting of cookies.
We use data collected through cookies and other technologies to improve your user experience and the overall quality of our services.

Cookies are small text modules that a website stores on the visitor’s device. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows websites and servers that have been visited to distinguish the individual’s browser from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A particular Web browser can be recognised and identified by the unique cookie ID.
The use of cookies enables Kremsmueller to provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without setting cookies. By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimised for the user.
