Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains which cookies are used on kid-institut.org, what purpose they serve and how you can manage your settings. It applies alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow certain information to be retained between page views — for example your login status. We use server cookies only.
2. Cookies we use
This website uses strictly necessary cookies only. These are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled. They do not perform any tracking or analytics functions and are not used for advertising purposes.

3. No analytics or marketing cookies
We do not use analytics, marketing or tracking cookies. Our links to social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, X, Discord, YouTube) are simple hyperlinks without embedded widgets — clicking them takes you to an external website where that platform's privacy policy applies.
4. Legal basis
Technically necessary cookies are permitted without consent under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR and §25(2) TDDDG, as they are strictly required for the operation of the website.
5. Managing cookies
You can disable or delete cookies in your browser at any time. Please note that disabling the session cookie will prevent you from logging in to the member area.
6. Updates to this policy
Should we introduce further cookies in future, we will update this policy and ask for your consent again via the cookie notice. Current version: 1.0 — June 2026.
