What are cookies?

1. Cookies are short text files that a website sends to your browser. They allow the website to record information about your visit, such as your preferred language and similar settings. This makes your next visit to the site easier and more enjoyable. Cookies are important because without them, browsing the Internet would be much more complicated. Cookies enable better use of our website and allow its content to be tailored to your needs. Almost every website in the world uses cookies. Cookies are useful because they increase the user-friendliness of a repeatedly visited website.

Based on these files, the website can recognise you:

a) by means of so-called “session cookies” – during your visit to the website. These are temporary cookies that are automatically deleted when you close your browser. You can set your browser to inform you about the use of cookies. This will ensure transparency in the use of cookies. Important: if you completely exclude the use of cookies, you will probably not be able to use certain functionalities of our website.

b) by means of so-called “persistent cookies” – for repeated visits to the website. These persistent cookies may be checked each time you visit the website. The information we collect through the website includes: browser type, the internet address from which you connected to the website, the operating system of the device, and the IP address of the device. To display more relevant advertisements, some cookies are set by third-party advertising systems such as Google Analytics. This can be disabled in your Google account. Your computer can be set to refuse cookies, although in such case some features of the website may not function.

2. So-called “our cookies” are cookies that have been placed on this website by our company.

3. So-called “third-party cookies” are cookies that are placed on your device by another company when you use our website. Third-party cookies may be placed on your device by someone who provides us with a certain service (for example, Google Analytics).

4. Third parties do not have access to the data in our cookies, and we cannot access third-party cookies either.
