They serve to improve the user-friendliness of websites (e.g. storing log-in data). You can influence the use of cookies.

The data entered during registration are used to provide the required services. By means of contact details entered by the user (e.g. email, telephone, address), users can be informed about details relevant to the registration or services, such as changes to the scope of services or technical matters. If users delete their accounts, the relevant data are deleted as well, unless their retention is necessary to comply with legal provisions relating to commercial or tax laws according to § 6, clause 1 lit. c GDPR.

In case of locking, deletion follows, if legal, statutory or contractual retention periods do not require storage, there is no reason to believe that a deletion would damage your protectable interests and a deletion does not cause an inappropriately high effort due to the special kind of storage.
Involvement of Third Party Services
Users have the option to include third party content (e.g. YouTube videos, charts, links, etc.) from and to other websites in their timeline. This always implies that the providers of those contents (hereafter called “third-party-providers“) recognise your IP-address, since the third-party-providers cannot send their contents to your browser without this IP-address. Thus the IP-address is necessary to display these contents. We endeavour to use only such contents whose providers use the IP-address only to deliver the contents. However we have no influence on any further use of your data (e.g. in case a third-party-provider stores your data for statistical purposes).
Analytical Services (Example: Use of Piwik/Matomo in the Frankfurt University IT Centre)
Our website uses Piwik/Matomo. This is a so-called web analysis service. Matomo uses so-called „cookies“, that is text files, which are saved on your computer and that allow us to analyse the use of the website. For this purpose, the usage information created by the cookie (including your abbreviated IP-address) is transferred to our server and stored for analytical services, which helps us to optimise our website. Your IP-address is anonymized immediately during this process so that your usage continues to be anonymous. The information about your use of this website created by the cookies is not shared with third parties. You can prevent the use of the cookies through the relevant settings of your browser software, but it is possible that under these circumstances you won’t be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.
If you don’t agree to the storage and analysis of these data you can refuse this storage and analysis per mouse click at any time below. In this case a so-called opt-out-cookie will be deposited in your browser with the consequence that Matomo will not collect any data any more.
Here you can decide whether an explicit web analysis cookie may be deposited in your browser in order to allow the website operator to capture and analyse various statistical data. If you don’t want to consent to this, click the link below in order to deposit the Matomo deactivating cookie in your browser.
