COOKIE POLICY
This Cookie Policy explains how and why we use cookies [and other similar technologies] on our website (the Site). This Cookie Policy applies to users and visitors of our Site.
Cookies are small text files employed on the Site to distinguish you from other users on the Site, and allow us to observe behaviour and compile aggregate data in order to improve the Site for you. For example, cookies will tell us whether when you last viewed the Site [with sound or with text] on your last visit and allow us to count the number of unique and return visitors to our Site.
We may collect your personal data automatically through the use of cookies. For more information on how we use and collect your personal data please visit our Privacy Policy.
Types of cookies
- Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies. A persistent cookie consists of a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, which will be stored by the browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date (unless deleted by the user before the expiry date). A session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.
- The law states that we can store cookies on your device if they are essential for the operation of the Site without your consent. If, on the other hand, the cookies are not essential for the operation of the Site (e.g. analytics cookies and advertising / targeting cookies), we need your consent before storing them on your device.
- The list below explains the cookies we use and why:
