- What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small file or similar information that is stored on a website visitor’s device when they visit a website.
These cookies can be used to remember selected settings, maintain requested website functionality, support payment-related functions, understand website usage with consent, and record cookie preferences.
The cookies used on our website are categorized according to their purpose and applicable legal requirements.
- Cookie Consent
When a visitor first visits our website, a cookie banner may be displayed, providing information about cookies and soliciting the visitor’s choice.
Non-essential cookies are only used after the visitor selects the “Accept” (consent required) cookie banner.
Visitors can choose whether to consent to the use of non-essential cookies. Choosing not to accept non-essential cookies does not itself prevent access to the website’s regular browsing functions, but some functions that rely on such cookies may not function properly.
Cookies that are essential to the services explicitly requested by the visitor may be used without separate consent, where permitted by applicable law.
German law generally requires the user’s informed consent to store information on a user’s device or access information already stored on a user’s device, except in certain specific circumstances, such as when the activity is absolutely necessary for the services explicitly requested by the user.
- Types of Cookies We May Use
4.1 Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are used where necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the requested website.
They may include cookies used for the following purposes:
Maintaining basic website functionality;
Remembering necessary cookie preferences;
Supporting the shopping and checkout process;
Maintaining the customer’s chosen session;
Supporting payment-related website functions when needed.
These cookies will not be used for other purposes that require consent.
Typical retention period: Based on session or up to 12 months, depending on the cookie and its purpose.
Cookies may expire earlier if the required retention period for the relevant function is shorter.
4.2 Preference Cookies
Preference cookies can remember choices made by visitors, such as selected website preferences or cookie consent settings.
These cookies are only used after the relevant selection is made, if consent is required.
Typical retention period: Up to 12 months, unless a shorter period is required for a specific feature.
Visitors can withdraw or change their previously provided consent if relevant cookie management features are available.
4.3 Analytics Cookies
Analysis cookies can be used to understand overall website usage, such as which pages visitors visited and how they interacted with website features.
These cookies are not mandatory and are only used after the visitor provides the necessary consent through our cookie banner.
Typical retention period: Up to 13 months, unless a shorter period applies to a specific cookie.
Retention periods depend on the intended use of the relevant information and applicable requirements.
4.4 Payment-Related Cookies and Similar Technologies
Some payment features may involve cookies or similar technologies provided by Stripe.
Stripe may use cookies and similar technologies to enable payment functionality, transaction processing, authentication, and transaction-related risk assessment. Stripe’s published information explains that the specific cookies used may depend on the Stripe services implemented and configured on the website.
Where applicable, these cookies or similar technologies may be associated with domains or payment components controlled by Stripe.
Applicable retention periods depend on the specific Stripe cookies or similar technologies and their uses. Therefore, this policy does not set a uniform retention period for Stripe-related cookies.
Customers can refer to Stripe’s published Cookies and Privacy Information for more information about the cookies Stripe uses.
- Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies or similar technologies may be placed or accessed by third-party service providers used for specific website functions.
For payment-related functions, Stripe may process information through its payment components, including applicable cookies and similar technologies.
Stripe is the payment processor used for transactions on our website and is not a partner of Citrus Basket Basic GmbH.
The specific cookies used by Stripe may vary depending on the payment services implemented on the website. Stripe recommends that businesses review the cookies they place on their services and provide appropriate disclosure information to website visitors.

The following periods represent the general retention framework for cookies on our website:

Stripe-related Cookies | Determined by the relevant Stripe service and cookie

Cookies may expire earlier than the maximum periods mentioned above if they are no longer needed for their intended purpose.
We will not retain cookies beyond what is reasonably necessary for their intended use.
The European Data Protection Authority requires users to receive information about cookies and their uses, and acknowledges that strictly necessary cookies can be treated differently from non-essential cookies that require consent.
- Withdrawal of Consent and Cookie Preferences
Where consent is required, visitors can withdraw or change their consent to non-essential cookies through the cookie management options provided on the website.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the legality of data processing performed prior to the withdrawal.
After withdrawing consent, non-essential cookies will no longer be used based on that consent, but will be subject to applicable technical processes required for recording visitor preferences.
The European Data Protection Commission states that consent must be voluntary, informed, and withdrawable.
- Cookie Information and Transparency
Our cookie banner provides visitors with information about cookie usage and allows them to choose whether to use non-essential cookies.
The website’s privacy policy provides more information about the processing of personal data, including information that may relate to website use and payment processing.
If third-party services use cookies or similar technologies, the relevant service providers may process information in accordance with their applicable privacy documents.
- Browser Settings
Visitors can also manage cookies through their web browser settings.
Blocking or deleting cookies may affect certain website functions, particularly those that rely on stored preferences or session information.
Browser controls are independent of the cookie consent mechanism provided on our website.
