Cookies
Our websites uses cookies. Cookies are text files which are stored and saved via an Internet
browser on a computer system.
Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID.
A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string through which websites
and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored.
This allows the visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of a person
affected from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies.
A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified by the unique cookie ID.
By use of cookies, Gestüt Woldsee GmbH can provide users of this website with more
user-friendly services which would not be possible without the cookie-setting.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized in the
sense of the user. As already mentioned, cookies do allow us to recognize the users of our
website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For
example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to re-enter his or her access
data each time the website is visited, because this is taken over from the website and the
cookie stored on the user's computer system.
Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in the online shop. By means of a
cookie, the online shop remembers the items that a customer has placed into the virtual
shopping cart
The person concerned can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by
means of a corresponding adjustment of the Internet browser used and thus permanently
contradict the setting of cookies. In addition, cookies that have already been set can be

popular Internet browsers. If the person affected disables the setting of cookies in the used
Internet browser, not all functions of our website might be fully usable.

with the person responsible for the processing, the personal data transmitted to the controller
by the affected person is automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary
basis by an affected person is stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the persons
concerned. This personal data will not be passed on to third parties.

to the responsible for processing.
If this responsible person in charge concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the
transferred data will be stored for the purpose of the settlement of the job, in compliance with
the legal regulations. If no employment contract with the applicant is concluded, the
application documents are automatically deleted two months after the notification of the

in charge. Other, legitimate interests in this sense are, for example, a duty of proof in a
procedure under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

The person concerned can prevent the setting of cookies by our website as already shown
above, at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the used Internet Browser

software programs.
