Cookie Policy

We use cookies to enhance your experience on our website. This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and your choices regarding them.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small files that a web server sends to your web browser, which stores them for a specified period or for the duration of your session on a website. Cookies serve various purposes, including enabling basic functionality, analyzing website usage, and personalizing content.

2. Types of Cookies

Cookies can be classified based on their duration, provenance, and purpose.

Duration

Session Cookies: These are temporary and are erased from your device once you close your browser or after your session ends.
Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device until they expire or you delete them manually. Persistent cookies have an expiration date within their code.

Provenance

First-Party Cookies: These are placed directly on your device by the website you are visiting.
Third-Party Cookies: These are placed on your device by external services, such as advertisers or analytics providers.

Purpose

Cookies are categorized based on their function:

Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for navigating the website and accessing its core features, such as logging into secure areas. User consent is not needed for these cookies, as they are set by default. However, you can disable them through your browser settings. Please note that if you disable these cookies, the website may not function as expected or as intended.
Preferences (Functionality) Cookies: These cookies allow a website to remember choices you have made in the past, like what language you prefer, what region you would like weather reports for, or what your user name and password are so you can automatically log in.
Statistics (Performance) Cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use a website, like which pages you visited and which links you clicked on. None of this information can be used to identify you. It is all aggregated and, therefore, anonymized. Their sole purpose is to improve website functions. This includes cookies from third-party analytics services as long as the cookies are for the exclusive use of the owner of the website visited.
Marketing Cookies: These cookies track your online activity to help advertisers deliver more relevant advertising or to limit how many times you see an ad. These cookies can share that information with other organizations or advertisers. These are persistent cookies and almost always of third-party provenance.
