This page is part of our Privacy Policy and describes the use of cookies on our website. Most websites you visit will use cookies to improve your user experience by enabling that website to "remember" you, either for the duration of your visit (using a session”), or for your repeated visits (“persistent cookie”). This policy explains our method of use. Some websites will also use cookies to allow them to target their advertising or marketing messages based, for example, on your place of residence and/or your browsing habits.
1. What is a cookie?
Cookies are small data files (usually numbers and letters) that a website places on your computer or mobile device when you first visit it. The cookie will help this website, or another site, to recognize your device the next time you visit. In this policy, we use the term "cookies" to refer to all files that collect information in this way.
Cookies have many functions, such as allowing you to browse more efficiently, storing your preferences and improving your overall experience of a website. Thanks to cookies, the interaction between the website and you is faster and easier. If a website does not use cookies, it will think that you are a new visitor each time you go to a new page on the site — for example, when you enter your username and password and go to a another page, it won't recognize you and you won't be able to stay logged in.
Some cookies contain personal information — for example, if you click "remember me" when logging in, a cookie will store your username. Most cookies will not collect information allowing you to be identified, but rather will collect more general information: how a user arrives at a website, how they use it, or even where a user lives.
2. How do we use cookies?
Cookies allow us to identify your device, or you, when you have logged in. We use cookies that are strictly necessary to enable you to move around the site or to provide you with certain basic functionality. We use cookies to improve the functionality of the website by storing your preferences, for example. We also use cookies to improve the performance of our website to provide you with a better user experience.
For the avoidance of doubt, we do not use cookies to collect personal information about you.

You can also delete cookies that have already been installed. If you wish to limit or block the installation of cookies on your device, you can do so through your browser settings.
