Our website uses “cookies”, which are small text files stored on your device when you visit our site. Their purpose is to improve the website’s functionality, personalise your user experience and collect statistical data.
- Types of cookies: functional (necessary for the operation of the website), analytical (for measuring site usage), marketing (for personalised advertising).
- Your consent: when visiting our website, we ask for your consent to use cookies, except for those strictly necessary for operation. You can manage or disable cookies at any time in your browser settings.
What are cookies?
When you visit our website, a small data file called a cookie is placed on your computer, which may serve several purposes.
We use only cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of the website and to support the session, as well as cookies that make the use of our site more convenient.
Some of these cookies are temporary and disappear when you close your browser, while there are convenience cookies that remain stored on your computer for up to 1 month. These allow your browser to remember your previous settings if you visit our site regularly, so you don’t need to repeatedly accept our cookie notice or re-apply the filters you set.
Purpose of cookies
Some of the cookies we use are essential for the website to function properly (session cookies), while others help make your use of the website more convenient.
By recording your settings and usage habits, they make navigation easier and improve the usability of the site.
Types of cookies
1. Session cookies
Session cookies are necessary for browsing the website and using its functions; they allow the site to remember operations you perform on a given page or feature.
Without session cookies, the uninterrupted use of the website cannot be guaranteed.
These cookies remain valid for the duration of your visit and are automatically deleted when the session ends or you close your browser.
2. Convenience cookies supporting usage
These cookies enable our site to remember the mode of operation you selected (for example, that you accepted the cookie notice, or how you prefer search results to be displayed).
This means that during your next visit you don’t need to accept the cookie notice again or re-set how you prefer to view the displayed content.
Without these preference cookies, the site would still function, but navigation would be less smooth.
Convenience cookies do not store personal data; only an identifier number is stored, which signals to the website that the cookie notice has already been accepted.
These cookies are stored by your browser on your device and expire after 1 month.
Security
Importantly, even when cookies are enabled, the Operator of the website does not store any identifiers or passwords.
Even if you accept cookies, you can use the Operator’s electronic services in complete safety.
Managing cookies and disabling them in your browser
Modern browsers allow you to change cookie settings. Some browsers accept cookies by default, but you can change this setting to prevent automatic acceptance in the future.
If you change the setting, your browser will prompt you to choose your cookie preferences each time.
Please note that since cookies are intended to support and simplify the usability and processes of the website, if you disable cookies, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to fully use all functions of the website. The website may then operate differently than intended in your browser.
