What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences and support features such as security and performance. Some cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function, while others are used for analytics or marketing and require your choice to be respected.

Legal Basis for Processing

Strictly Necessary cookies are exempt from consent because they are strictly necessary to provide the website and features you request (for example, security and saving your cookie choices). Analytics and Marketing cookies require your choice to be respected.

You can choose whether to allow Analytics and Marketing cookies, and you can change your choices at any time. You can manage or withdraw your cookie consent at any time through the cookie preferences link in our website footer, or by adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies. If you opt out of cookies that are used for selling or sharing personal information, we will stop using those cookies for that purpose.
