It should be read together with the Privacy Policy, which explains how personal information is collected and processed.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function, remember preferences, and collect information about how visitors use the website.

Similar technologies, such as scripts, pixels, and local storage, may also be used for related purposes.

3. How Cookies Are Used

The website may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These technologies are required for essential website functions, security, or the operation of services requested by the visitor. They do not require consent where an applicable legal exemption applies.

Analytics Cookies

Google Analytics may use cookies and similar technologies to measure website traffic, understand visitor interactions, and evaluate website performance. This information helps improve the website and its content.

Analytics technologies that require consent under applicable law will be activated only after the required consent has been obtained.

4. Google Services

The website uses Google Analytics to collect website usage statistics. Depending on its configuration, Google Analytics may use cookies such as _ga and related identifiers to distinguish users and sessions.

Google Search Console is used to monitor search performance and website visibility. Search Console generally provides aggregated performance reports and is not, by itself, a tool for placing analytics cookies in visitors’ browsers.

Google services are subject to Google’s applicable terms and privacy policies. Further information is available in Google’s documentation on Google Analytics cookies.

5. Managing Cookie Preferences

Where required by law, visitors will be given the option to accept or reject non-essential cookies before those cookies are activated.

You may change or withdraw your consent at any time through the website’s cookie settings, where available. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect certain website functions.

6. Third-Party Technologies

Some services integrated into the website may be provided by third parties and may use their own technologies. The use of such technologies depends on the services enabled on the website and their configuration.

Third-party providers are responsible for their own services and privacy practices, subject to applicable law and any relevant contractual obligations.

7. Data Retention

Cookie retention periods depend on the type of cookie and the service that sets it. Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while others remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.

The specific cookies and their retention periods may vary depending on the website’s technical configuration and the settings of the services in use.
