The cookies that are saved by Umantis are listed in the table below, with a “Name”, “Purpose” and “Retention period” for each.

Please note the following information:

  • Cookies that are not technically necessary and therefore require consent are all those that are not absolutely technically necessary for the operation of a website and the provision of specific page functions.
    The cookies listed in the following table, on the other hand, are technically necessary - e.g. the "language", "CompanyID" and "ExternalDesignID" cookies, which are session cookies that, among other things, display the correct search results in the correct design. None of these cookies are used for analytics, tracking or marketing purposes.
  • The session is automatically closed when all browser tabs/windows are closed in which a Umantis session was active (independently of the cookie’s retention period (column 3)).
