In contrast, non-personal data is data with which it is impossible to determine your actual identity or with which a great deal of work would be needed to do this. This includes, for example, the aforementioned information if we receive it in anonymous form or under a pseudonym and we thus cannot match it to any natural person.

12. Use of cookies
12.1. We use cookies on the Insiders learning platform. Cookies are small text files that are saved on your end device (PC, smartphone, tablet etc.).
