Information about Cookies

Cookies are:

Small text files stored on your computer, enabling an analysis of your website use. The information stored by cookies can be read by the website when you visit it again at a later date. On the one hand cookies are necessary to ensure that all processes on the site work smoothly. On the other hand cookies can make the re-use of the site easier for the user: Information stored by cookies at the first visit, e. g. language settings or user names, do not need to be entered again. Hence, the website adjusts itself to a certain extent to your individual needs under the condition that the same device will be used.

That’s why GLS uses cookies:

To provide you an optimal service, adapted to your customer needs. For instance:

  • Some information you have already received at the first visit, will not be displayed once more.
  • Activities such as the login and logout process can be facilitated, information you already searched for will be displayed faster. The performance of the website can be increased.

Of course, GLS makes organisational and technical provisions to protect your personal data and to avoid loss of information and illegal conduct.

Please find more information in our Privacy Policy.
