General

We use cookies and other tracking technologies to make visiting our website easier and to improve general experience. In addition, we use cookies and collect information that helps us to enhance your experience and our products and services. The cookies that we use allow our website to work, to analyze our website traffic, and to help us to understand how our website is used so we can optimize it.

On this site, we describe what information we gather, how we use it and why we sometimes need to store these cookies. We also inform how you can prevent and block these cookies from being stored.

 

What are cookies?

Cookie is a piece of data in the form of a text file that is placed onto your device (persistent cookie) or stored in memory (session cookie). It is generated by a web page server, which is basically a computer that operates a web site. The information the cookie contains is set by the server and it can be used by that server whenever the user visits the site. They allow websites to store things like remembering you and your user preferences.

Cookies can be stored for varying lengths of time on your browser or device. Session cookies are deleted from your computer or device when you close your web-browser. Persistent cookies will remain stored on your computer or device until deleted or until they reach their expiry date which varies typically from a few days up to a couple of years.

Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as “first party cookies”), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website (“third party cookies”).

Both websites and HTML emails may also contain other tracking technologies such as “web beacons” or “pixels.” These are typically transparent graphic images placed on a web page or in an email, which indicate that a page or email has been viewed. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.

 

Who is collecting cookies?

The cookies we are using are gathered through various service providers. Third party cookie providers will also be able to gather and use data gather by their cookies. We have no direct control over the information that is collected by these third party cookies. For further information about cookie usage by third party provider, please check the provider’s cookie and privacy policies.

 

What purpose do we use cookies for?

We don’t sell the information collected by cookies.

  • User’s IP-address

  • Social media sharing information

Targeting (marketing) cookies

We use cookies or similar technologies from third party analytics providers, which help us compile aggregated statistics about the effectiveness of our promotional campaigns or other operations. These technologies enable the analytics providers to set or read their own cookies or other identifiers on your device, through which they can collect information about your online activities across applications, websites, or other products.

In addition, we use social media buttons and/or plugins on this site that allow you to connect with your social network in various ways. For these to work, social media sites will set cookies through our site which may be used to enhance your profile on their site or contribute to the data they hold for various purposes outlined in their respective privacy policies. Some of these cookies may be set when a page is loaded, or when you take a particular action like clicking a social media sharing button.

We may also obtain information from our email newsletters or other communications we send to you, including whether you opened or forwarded a newsletter or clicked on any of its content. This information tells us about our newsletters’ effectiveness and helps us ensure that we’re delivering information that you find interesting.

 

HOW DO WE RESPOND TO “DO NOT TRACK” (DNT) SIGNALS?

DNT is a preference users can set on their browsers (if supported) to opt-out of online behavioral tracking. While the Federal Trade Commission and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) have been working with different internet browsers, interest groups, regulators, and technology companies to develop a standard for DNT technology, no clear standard has been set. As such, we currently do not respond to “do not track” signals.
