What are cookies?

A cookie is a small piece of text that our web server stores on your computer or mobile device, which your browser sends to us when you return to our site. Cookies do not necessarily identify you if you have just visited our website; however, a cookie can store a unique identifier for each logged in user. The cookies we use are essential for the operation of the website, or are used for performance, functionality and security purposes.

For example, cookies allow us to remember things about your visit to our website, such as your preferred language, time zone and other preferences in order to make the site and service easier for you to use.

In order to provide the highest level of usability, performance and security, we use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A persistent cookie consists of a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, which will be stored by the browser and will remain valid until its set expiration date (unless deleted by the user before the date of expiry). A session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.

 

How and why do we use cookies and similar technologies?

The cookies and similar technologies we use, including web beacons, browser cookies, pixel tags and local shared objects (also called "flash cookies") all share a single goal: to offer, measure and improve all aspects of our service continuously and in various ways. We distinguish between these cookies, which are strictly necessary for access and navigation, others which follow the use (performance cookies), remember your choices (functionality cookies), and cookies which you provide targeted content or advertising.

In an effort to fully understand how people use our website and service, we have implemented a number of analytical partners, including Google Analytics. These partners use cookies to collect information and analyze site navigation and how and from which website users have reached our website and service.
