This Website may store or retrieve information using your browser, mostly in the form of cookies. This information might be personal information about you, your preferences or your device and is mostly used to make the site work as you expect it to. The information does not usually directly identify you, but it can give you a more personalized web experience. Because we respect your right to privacy, you can choose not to allow some types of cookies.
At any time, you have the option to accept or decline the use of cookies using the on/off settings of the preference center, by clicking on the button below:
- What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a Website – when visited by a user – asks your browser to place on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Those cookies are set by us and are called first party cookies. We also use third-party cookies – which are cookies from a domain other than that of the Website you are visiting – for our statistical or traffic analysis purposes.
- Why do we use cookie?
Cookies are used for various purposes, such as allowing the user to navigate between pages seamlessly, implementing the user’s preferences and improving their overall browsing experience, by customizing the content according to their navigation.
- What types of cookies do we use?
We use several types of cookies which have different durations. In particular we use:
o Session cookies, which only last for the duration of a browsing session and facilitate your experience on our Website; and
o Persistent cookies, which last for more than one visit and memorise your preferred settings regarding our Website.
These cookies can also be categorised as follows, depending on who sets them:
o First party cookies, which are supplied by the publisher of the Website you are visiting, so that it functions properly.
o Third party cookies, which are set on the Website by third parties, and are intended to collect data in different ways and for several purposes, for example: data collection for analysis and statistical purposes.
- What categories of cookie are on our Website?
Only used cookies are the “strictly necessary cookies”:
These cookies are necessary for the Website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. This allows us to authenticate and record your sessions, to secure traffic or to detect certain malicious activities. For the Website, you can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the Website will then not work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
Performance & analytics cookies
These cookies allow us to collect behavioral data and determine traffic sources, so we can
- Measure the traffic on the Website. They help us to find out which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Website by distinguishing users and sessions, determining new sessions/visits and counting the number of pages viewed in the current session and the recording type.
- Understand by who and how our site is used. Performance and analytics cookies are also used to rationalize traffic counting and user behavior across several platform integrations. They allow us to store visitor custom variable information, test different versions of our Website or our content, and allow third-party providers helping us analyze and optimize our content.
Functionality cookies
These cookies enable the personalization of Website content by recognizing you and remembering your preferences. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.
