Use of Cookies

A cookie is a small string of text that a website (or online service) stores on a user’s browser. It saves data on your browser about your visit to our site or other sites. It often includes a unique identifier (e.g., cookie #123).

“First-party cookies” are cookies set by us (or on our behalf) on our site. “Third-party cookies” are cookies set by other companies whose functionality is embedded into our site (e.g., google.com).

“Session cookies” are temporary cookies stored on your device while you visit our site. They expire when you close your browser.

“Persistent cookies” are stored on your browser for some time after you leave our site. Persistent cookies expire on a set expiration date, or when they are deleted manually.

You can choose whether to accept cookies by editing your browser settings. However, if cookies are refused, your experience on our site may be poor, and some features may not work as intended.

What Cookies Do We Use?

Below you find a list of the types of cookies that appear on our site.

Necessary (2)

“Necessary cookies” help make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas on the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

Statistics (3)

“Statistic cookies” help website owners understand how visitors interact with websites by collecting and reporting information anonymously.

Marketing (10)

“Marketing cookies” are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to display ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user and, thereby, more valuable for publishers and third-party advertisers.

How Do I Manage Cookies?

When you first come to our site, you may receive a notification that there are cookies. By clicking or tapping “accept,” you agree to the use of these cookies as described here.

You can manage your cookie settings by opting out of specific (or all) cookies. If you refuse cookies, you might not be able to sign in or use other cookie-dependent features on our site.

By clicking or tapping the button “opt out” you are not opting out of any advertising-related third-party cookies. To opt out of all third-party cookies, please follow the instructions for your browser, as well as the Ad Choices and Online Choices paragraphs below.

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but in general, this is something you can adjust. Information for each browser can be found in the links below:

• Safari on desktop and Safari Mobile (iPhone and iPads): Note that, by default, Safari is engineered to protect you from being tracked from site to site unless you disable the Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP).
• Firefox: By default, Firefox protects you from cross-site tracking, as long as you have not disabled Enhanced Tracking Protection (ETP). Therefore, there is less of a need to manage cookies to protect your privacy.
• Chrome
• Microsoft Edge: Enabling tracking prevention with Edge will protect you from being tracked between sites so that there will be less of a need to manage your cookies to protect your privacy.
• Samsung Internet Browser: Note that Samsung Internet Browser includes “Smart Watch” protection that helps protect you from being tracked across sites.

To find information relating to other browsers, visit the browser developer’s website.
