No further data is collected. This data will only be used for the newsletter and will not be passed on to third parties.

9.5 Cookies
9.5.1 The website uses "cookies" to make the service more user-friendly, effective and secure.
9.5.2 A "cookie" is a small text file that is transmitted via the Weizmann Austria web server to the cookie file of the browser on the website visitor's end device. This enables the Weizmann Austria website to recognize the website visitor as a user when a connection is established between the Weizmann Austria web server and the website visitor's browser. Cookies help Weizmann Österreich to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of the website. The content of the cookies used by Weizmann Österreich is limited to an identification number that can no longer be traced back to the website visitor.
9.5.3 Two types of cookies are used on this website:
9.5.4 Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of the website visitor's browser until they leave the website and are automatically deleted at the end of the website visit.
9.5.5 Persistent cookies: For a better user experience, cookies remain stored on the website visitor's end device and allow Weizmann Austria to recognize the website visitor's browser on the next visit.
9.5.6 Website visitors can set their browser so that they (i) are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, (ii) exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and (iii) activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.
9.5.7 Cookies that are required either (i) to carry out the transmission of a message over an electronic communications network or (ii) to provide a service that is expressly requested may legally be used without the consent of the website visitor.
9.5.8 Insofar as cookies are used for purposes other than these two purposes (e.g. cookies for analyzing the surfing behavior of the website visitor), Weizmann Austria obtains the consent of the website visitor. The website visitor can, but does not have to, give his/her consent to the use of such cookies; this is done on a voluntary basis. Website visitors can also withdraw their consent at any time by changing their browser settings (to disallow cookies). However, Weizmann Austria would like to point out that this may limit the functionality of the website and that the website visitor may then not be able to use it to its full extent.
9.6 Server log files
9.6.1 In order to optimize this website in terms of system performance, user-friendliness and the provision of useful information about Weizmann Austria, the website provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which are automatically transmitted by the website visitor's browser. This includes the internet protocol address (IP address), information about the browser used, operating system, referrer URL, internet service provider, amount of data transferred, loading time and date and time of access.
9.6.2 This data will not be merged with other personal data.
9.7 Akismet
9.7.1 We use the Akismet anti-spam service from Automattic, Inc. 132 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA, to separate spam from normal user comments. The comment and/or contact data is sent to and processed by Akismet exclusively for this purpose. Akismet stores the data for up to 4 days; if the comment is classified as spam, the data is stored for longer. The stored data includes name, e-mail address, IP address, the text of the comment, the referrer, information about the browser and computer system used and the time of the entry.
9.7.2 Akismet does not store comment data permanently on its servers unless a comment has been flagged as false-positive, in which case Akismet will store the data long enough to use it to improve the service and prevent future false-positive comments. You can use a pseudonym for your name and e-mail address. You can prevent the transfer of data to the USA altogether if you do not use our comment system. That would be a shame, but unfortunately we don't see any other alternative that works just as effectively.
Further information can be found in Akismet's privacy policy.
