1.1 Cookies

back to top 1.1.1 What is the "cookie" the shop is trying to set?

the server needs to set a memory cookie that will NOT be stored on the harddisk of your machine.
this cookie is needed to track your navigation through the store and expires after your current browser session (i.e. when you close your browser).

it is essentially your "identification card" for this session and cannot be executed as code or deliver viruses. It is uniquely yours and can only be read by the server that gave it to you. besides that, the cookie set by this server is simply a unique random value, there is no personal information stored.

back to top 1.1.2 And why another cookie?

the second cookie is set after you successfully entered the shop for the first time of your session. if this cookie is set you won't have to go over the starting page each time you click on the link to the shop in the menu to the left

1.2 JavaScript (Active Scripting)

back to top  1.2.1 Do i have to activate JavaScript (Active Scripting) to use the shop?

no. you don't need javascript to use the shop. java script is only used for opening pop-up windows (i.e. larger version of pictures or some information texts)
