What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer, smartphone or other device when you visit a website. Cookies help websites remember information about your visit, including preferences, session information and certain technical settings.

Cookies are not computer programs and cannot independently access unrelated files or information stored on your device.

Why websites use cookies

Cookies can support essential website operations, maintain secure sessions, remember visitor preferences and help website operators understand how their services are used.

Some cookies are necessary for functionality, while others may support analytics, embedded content or marketing activities when enabled and lawfully permitted.

Session cookies

Session cookies are temporary files used during an active browsing session. They help maintain navigation, remember temporary selections and support essential website functionality.

These cookies are generally removed automatically when the browser session ends.

Persistent cookies

Persistent cookies remain stored on a device after the browser has been closed.

They may be used to remember language preferences, selected settings or other information that improves future visits. Their storage duration depends on the individual cookie and its configuration.

First-party cookies

First-party cookies are created or controlled by the website you are visiting.

They may support website navigation, session management, security and the storage of user preferences.

Third-party cookies

Third-party cookies may be placed by external services integrated into a website, such as analytics providers, embedded video platforms or social media features.

Their purposes and storage periods depend on the relevant third-party service.

Third-party services

Certain website features may rely on external service providers, including analytics tools, embedded content, communication services and other technical integrations.

Where such services use cookies or similar technologies, their operation may be subject to the service provider's privacy information and applicable consent requirements.

Additional details about individual services and cookie categories should be available through the website's cookie preference management tools, where provided.

Social media & embedded content

If the website displays embedded content or integrations from platforms such as YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram or Facebook, those services may use their own cookies or similar tracking technologies.

We encourage visitors to review the privacy and cookie policies of the relevant platforms. Non-essential technologies requiring consent should only be activated when the necessary permission has been given.

Cookie consent

Where consent is required, visitors should be able to make an informed choice about non-essential cookies before they are activated.

Simply visiting or continuing to browse the website does not, by itself, constitute valid consent to optional cookies.

Managing your preferences

Where the website provides cookie preference controls, you can use them to accept, reject or modify optional cookie categories.

Consent may be withdrawn or changed in accordance with applicable law. Withdrawal does not affect processing carried out lawfully before consent was withdrawn.

Browser settings & deletion

Most browsers allow you to view, block and delete cookies through their privacy or security settings.

You may also configure your browser to limit cookie storage or remove existing cookies automatically.
