Information on the cookies and comparable browser-storage technologies we use on rydbit.com, and how you can manage your consent at any time.
Last updated: 2026-04-22
This Cookie Policy applies to the website rydbit.com and explains which cookies and comparable browser-storage technologies we use, on what legal basis, and how you can control them. It complements our Privacy Policy, which describes our broader data-processing activities. Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device through your browser. Comparable technologies — such as localStorage and sessionStorage — can store or read information on your device in a similar way. Under §25 TTDSG, all such access to information on your end device is treated the same way, regardless of the underlying technology.
Storing information on your device, or accessing information already stored there, requires your prior consent under §25 (1) TTDSG, unless the storage or access is strictly necessary to provide a service you have expressly requested (§25 (2) No. 2 TTDSG). Where the information we then process constitutes personal data, any subsequent processing based on optional cookies is carried out on the legal basis of your consent under Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR. Strictly necessary cookies are used without consent; optional cookies (Statistics and Marketing) are only set with your prior, informed consent.
Strictly necessary
Required for the website to operate and to deliver a service you have expressly requested.
No consent required (§25 (2) No. 2 TTDSG).
Preferences
Remember non-essential choices such as interface language. We currently bundle preference storage with strictly necessary storage, as it is used to respect a setting you have actively made.
No separate consent required when strictly necessary for a user-chosen feature.
Statistics
Help us understand how the website is used in aggregated form, for example by measuring page views or performance.
Consent required (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR, §25 (1) TTDSG).
Marketing
Used to personalize communications, measure campaign performance, or build audience profiles across sessions.
Consent required (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR, §25 (1) TTDSG).
Today we only use strictly necessary storage. We do not set analytics, statistics or marketing cookies by default. If this changes, we will update this policy and request your consent before loading any optional storage technologies.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time. Use the "Cookies" link in the footer or the "Open cookie settings" button below to reopen the consent panel and adjust your choices. You can also delete cookies and clear browser storage directly from your browser settings. Withdrawing your consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

The current version is always available on this page, and the "Last updated" date at the top indicates when it was most recently revised. Material changes will be announced in an appropriate form.
