WHAT ARE COOKIES?

‍

Cookies are small files that websites save to your computer’s hard drive when you visit for the first time.

The cookie contains a unique code that allows your browser to be recognized during your visit to the website (“session cookie”) or during future visits (“permanent cookie”). Cookies can be placed by the server of the website which you visit or by partners with which this website collaborates. The server of a website can only read cookies that it itself has placed; it has no access to other information on your computer or your mobile device. Cookies are stored on your computer or mobile device in your browser. Cookies typically specify the name of the server that created the cookie, an expiration date and a unique alphanumeric code.

Please note: Cookies are completely harmless. They cannot erase any data from your computer, cannot modify any files or programs and cannot contain viruses.

WHAT ARE COOKIES USED FOR?

‍

Cookies allow our website to recognize you while preserving your anonymity. The website remembers your preferences and automatically adapts to your choices. This information is not linked to your name or your identity in any way. For example, cookies allow you to browse directly in your native language and prevent you from needing to repeatedly enter your login details. In summary, they make this website easier and more pleasant to use.

Cookies can help you to be more efficient. Have you ever placed an item in the virtual basket of an online store, then returned a few days later to see that it is still there? This is one example of what cookies can do.

Cookies can also be used to make the contents or advertisements of a website more relevant to the visitor and adapt the website to each visitor’s personal tastes and needs.

ESSENTIAL COOKIES

MARKETING COOKIES

‍

This website uses cookies that update the products or services that might interest you to reflect the pages that you have visited. Using these cookies and resources provided by the Google advertising network (Google AdWords, Google Analytics, the Google Display network and DoubleClick) and Facebook (Facebook, Instagram), we display advertisements for our products and services that may be relevant to your interests on other websites that belong to these advertising networks. This technique is called “remarketing”. These cookies do not contain any personal information.

PERSONALIZATION COOKIES

‍

These items allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. For example, a website may provide you with local weather reports or traffic news by storing data about your current location.
