What is a Cookie?

A “cookie” is a text file that contains information downloaded to your device when you visit a website. That cookie is sent back on each subsequent visit to the originating website or to another website that recognizes it. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a device and provide you with a more efficient and personalized experience. Some of the cookies we use require your consent, while others are exempt.

Consent-exempt cookies: Strictly necessary cookie functions to ensure that you can use the website as intended. These are stored on your computer for the duration of the current browser session.

Consent-subject cookies: All other cookies that are not strictly necessary for you to use the website still perform important tasks. Without these cookies, the functions intended for you on our website, such as your personal settings or preferences, cannot be remembered and therefore must be re-entered on each page.

What Cookies do we use?

We use three types of cookies: strictly necessary cookies, performance cookies and functional cookies.

Strictly necessary cookies are essential to allow you to move around the website and use its functions.

Performance cookies are stored on your computer for longer periods and are used for statistical purposes.

Functional cookies allow the website to save information that has already been entered by you and to remember your preferences when using the website.

What is the lifespan of a cookie?

The lifespan of a cookie can vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is used. If desired, cookies can be deleted by the user at any time using the browser settings.

Why do we use cookies?

Cookies are the main point of the efficient functioning of the platform, helping to generate a friendly browsing experience and adapted to the preferences and interests of each user. Refusing or disabling cookies does not mean that you will no longer be able to use the site – it only means that it will no longer be able to take into account your preferences and interests, highlighted by your browsing behavior.
