1. What are cookies and what information do they collect?
When you visit our websites or view our services online, we or an authorized third party may send you a cookie. Cookies are small text files that can be stored on your device. When a website is accessed, a cookie placed on a device sends information to the party that placed the cookie. Cookies are widely used on a number of websites. Each cookie usually contains the name of the domain from which the cookie originated, the "lifetime" of the cookie, and usually the IP address or other unique number of the device and may therefore contain personal data, i.e. information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.
2. Session and persistent cookies
Our websites may store session and persistent cookies on your device. The difference between a session and a persistent cookie refers to the duration of the cookie. Session cookies are cookies that are usually valid for as long as you use your browser or browsing session. When you end your browsing session, the cookie expires. Persistent cookies, as the name suggests, are persistent and are persisted even after the browser is closed. This allows, for example, faster and often more convenient access to our website.

4. First-party and third-party cookies
First-party cookies may be stored on our websites so that third parties can place cookies on your device. The difference between a first-party cookie and a third-party cookie relates to the control of the party serving the cookie. First-party cookies are cookies that are specific to the website from which they were created. Their use allows us to operate an efficient service and track the behavior of visitors to the website. Third-party cookies, on the other hand, are placed on your device by third-party (i.e. not us). While we may allow third parties to access the Site to place these cookies on users' devices, we do not control or retain access to the information provided by the cookies. The legal basis for collecting information about third-party cookies depends on the type of cookie, see above.
