About cookies
Cookies are files that are stored on the user's computer to record information about a session. Considering their duration, there are two types of cookies; persistent and session cookies.
Persistent cookies are stored by a web browser for a longer period of time and will remain valid until its set expiry date (unless erased by the user before the expiry date). Session cookies are temporary cookies that are automatically erased when the web browser is closed. Cookies may also fall into two general categories: first party cookies (which is set by us) and third-party cookies (which are set by our partners and/or third party content providers).
How to avoid cookies
If you don't want cookies to be stored in your browser, you can set up your browser to automatically deny cookies or to inform you each time a website requests to store a cookie. You can view which cookies are stored through your browser and delete them. We have listed the names of the cookies we use down below to help you review your cookies.
Without the cookie that we described as necessary in the description below, our website will not work properly, as it limits our ability to remember your choices. You can choose not to consent to the other cookies. If you do, we will receive less information to analyze and track usage of our Websites and thus less data to understand how we can improve the Websites and decide on such improvement measures and/or, if you do not consent to the cookies we use for marketing purposes, the extent of marketing material from us and through or partners will be reduced.
