Use of cookies

In general terms, cookies are small text files which are sent to your web browser and stored on your computer’s hard disk. Cookies act as a memory for a website, allowing that website to remember your computer on your return visits. This is particularly important for websites that require you to sign in as it speeds up your access.

We use both session cookies (which exist only until you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which exist for a longer, specified period of time).

The majority of web browsers accept cookies, but you can usually change the web browser’s settings to refuse new cookies, disable existing ones or simply let you know when new ones are sent to your hard disk. If you refuse or disable cookies, some of this website’s functionality may be lost.

Third-party cookies

We use third-party cookies to collect statistics in aggregate form in analysis tools such as Google Analytics and Hotjar. We also use Google Analytics Advertising Features. Read more about it and how you can opt out with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. The cookies used are both permanent and temporary cookies (session cookies). The permanent cookies are stored on your computer or mobile device for no longer than 24 months.

Strictly Necessary Cookies
