What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that stores Internet settings. Almost every website uses cookie technology. The cookie is downloaded by your Internet browser the first time you visit a website. The next time you visit this website from the same device, the cookie and the information in it are either sent back to the originating website (first-party cookies) or to another website to which it belongs (third-party cookies). By that, the website can detect that it has already been opened using this browser, and in some cases it will then vary the content it shows.
Some cookies are extremely useful because they can improve your user experience when you return to a website you have already visited. This assumes that you are using the same device and the same browser as before; if so, cookies will remember your preferences, will know how you use the website, and will adapt the content you are shown so that it is more relevant to your personal interests and needs.
You can read more about how we process your personal data collected via cookies in our Privacy Policy.
What types of cookies do we use?
First party cookies that are strictly necessary
Cookies that are essential, also known as ‘strictly necessary’ cookies, enable features without which you would not be able to use the website as intended. These cookies are used exclusively by this website and are therefore known as first-party cookies. They are only saved on your device while you are actually browsing the website and are thus also known as session cookies.
An example of why strictly necessary cookies are used is to ensure that what you see on screen corresponds to the data volume which your current Internet connection can handle. Another example of what these cookies do is facilitate a switch from http to https when you change pages, so that the security of data transmitted is maintained. Furthermore, a cookie of this kind is used to store your decision about the use of cookies on our website.
Other first-party cookies on this website
Cookies which, in strictly legal terms, are not absolutely essential in order to use this website, do nevertheless fulfil important functions. Without these cookies, features that enable our website to be used easily, such as pre-completed forms, will no longer be available. Settings you make, such as language choices, will no longer be saved, so you will be asked about them every time you change pages. As well as that, we will no longer have a way of presenting offers to you that are tailored to you personally.
Third-party cookies
This website has integrated content belonging to third parties. These third-party providers can place cookies while you visit the website, and in doing so can obtain information about the fact that you have visited the website. Please visit the websites belonging to those third-party providers if you need more information about how they use cookies. You can find a link to their website under “Data Processor Privacy Policy” in the description of marketing cookies used on our website. If you have decided not to provide your consent to the use of cookies that require it, or if you have revoked that consent, then you will only be provided with website features whose use does not require such cookies. Areas of the website that can potentially incorporate content from third parties, and which therefore place third-party cookies, will not be available to you if that is the case.
What categories of cookies are on our website?
Strictly necessary cookies
Strictly necessary cookies help make a website navigable by activating basic functions such as page navigation and access to secure website areas. Without these cookies, the website would not be able to work properly. You cannot deselect strictly necessary cookies, but you can delete them after use of our website. Please see below for information on how cookies are deleted depending on which browser you use.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies make it possible to save information that changes the way the website appears or acts by recognising users and remembering preferences. For instance, your preferred language or region. Functional cookies may be placed by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.
Statistical cookies
Statistical cookies help the website owner understand how visitors interact with the website by collecting and reporting information. They also help us count the number of visitors and to find out which pages are the most and least popular.
Marketing cookies
Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to build a profile of your interest and to display ads that are perceived to be relevant and interesting to the individual user and thus more valuable for publishers and third-party advertisers. Marketing cookies may be placed on our site by our advertising partners. Please visit the websites belonging to those third-party advertising partners if you need more information about how they use cookies. You can find a link to their website under “Data Processor Privacy Policy” in the description of marketing cookies used on our website.
