WHAT ARE “COOKIES”?
Cookies (or similar technologies) are tiny text files containing small amounts of data about you and your interaction with our website. Cookies work by assigning users with unique reference codes (identifiers) that are placed on their device when they access the website. Later (if they last longer than a web-session) they are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes them.
Please note that our website may also contain other tracking technologies such as “pixels” (or “web-beacons”). These are typically small, transparent images that provide us with website statistics. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your device in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, pixels may still load, but their functionality will be restricted. For simplicity, all such technologies are further collectively referred to as “cookies”.
Some cookies are critical for the proper functioning of our website (“Necessary Cookies”), whereas others help us personalize and improve your experience while using the website (such as “Preference Cookies”, “Statistic Cookies”, “Marketing Cookies” and “Social Media Cookies”).
Cookies can remain on your device for different periods of time. Some of them are “Session Cookies” – they are only stored on the device during your browser session. In other words, they are automatically erased when you close your browser. Other ones like “Persistent Cookies” will remain on your device even after your browser session has ended until you manually erase them, or as they expire. They are used, for example, to remember you when you return to the website.
Our website uses both ‘first’ and ‘third’ party cookies, depending on the domain placing/providing them. First Party Cookies are those set directly by this website, whereas Third Party Cookies are placed or provided by other domains (please see the list of such third parties herein in Section “Third parties”). Please note that we have no (or limited) control over the Third Party Cookies.
