Cookie Policy
Version 1.0
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They enable the website to recognise your device and store certain information about your session or preferences. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage, which serve comparable purposes.
2. How We Use Cookies
Eigentum² uses only technically necessary cookies. We do not use analytics cookies, marketing cookies, advertising cookies, or any form of third-party tracking.
Because we exclusively use cookies that are strictly necessary for the provision of the service you have explicitly requested, no prior consent is required in accordance with § 25(2) No. 2 of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG) and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC).
3. Cookies We Use
The following table lists all cookies and similar storage technologies used by the Eigentum² platform:
3.1 Authentication and Session Cookies
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| eigentum_session | dein-eigentum.de | Maintains your authenticated session after login. Contains a unique session token that identifies your active session. | HTTP cookie (HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite) | Session (expires on logout or after inactivity) |
3.2 Application State Cookies
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| x-org-id | dein-eigentum.de | Stores the ID of your currently selected organisation so it persists when you navigate between pages. | HTTP cookie (SameSite=Lax, Secure) | Session |
| sidebar_state | dein-eigentum.de | Remembers whether the dashboard sidebar is expanded or collapsed, so the layout matches your preference on each visit. | HTTP cookie | 7 days |
3.3 User Interface Preferences
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theme preference | dein-eigentum.de | Stores your selected colour theme (light, dark, or system) so the interface renders correctly without a flash of the wrong theme. | HTTP cookie | 1 year |
3.4 Local Storage
| Key | Provider | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| eigentum_cookie_consent | dein-eigentum.de | Records that you have been informed about our use of cookies. | Local storage | 30 days |
4. Legal Basis
All cookies listed above are strictly necessary for the provision of the service you have explicitly requested, within the meaning of:
- § 25(2) No. 2 TDDDG (Telekommunikation-Digitale-Dienste-Datenschutz-Gesetz): Storage on the end user's device is permitted without consent when it is strictly necessary for the provider to deliver the service the user has explicitly requested.
- Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Legitimate interests): The processing of data stored in these cookies is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interest in providing a secure, functional, and user-friendly service.
5. Third-Party Cookies
We do not set or allow any third-party cookies on our platform. The following third-party services are used, but they do not set cookies on your device through our platform:
- Stripe (payment processing): Stripe's JavaScript library is loaded during checkout. Stripe may use its own cookies on its domain during the payment flow, but these are not set on dein-eigentum.de.
- Google (OAuth authentication): When you use "Sign in with Google," you are redirected to Google's domain where Google may set its own cookies. These are not set on dein-eigentum.de.
6. How to Manage Cookies
Since we only use strictly necessary cookies, disabling them may impair or prevent the use of our platform (e.g., you would not be able to stay logged in).
You can manage cookies through your browser settings:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and Other Site Data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and Site Permissions > Manage and Delete Cookies
Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will likely prevent you from using the Eigentum² platform, as authentication and session management depend on them.
7. Changes to This Cookie Policy
If we introduce non-essential cookies in the future (e.g., analytics or marketing), we will:
- Update this Cookie Policy with the new cookies
- Implement a consent mechanism that requests your prior consent before setting such cookies
- Ensure that "Reject All" is equally prominent and accessible as "Accept All," in compliance with CNIL guidelines and TDDDG requirements
