Cookies may include:
- Session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.
- First-party cookies, which are set by the website you are visiting.
- Third-party cookies, which are set by an external service provider, such as an analytics, advertising, or embedded content provider.
2. How do we use cookies?
We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the technical operation of the website. They help ensure that the website functions securely and correctly.
Strictly necessary cookies may be used for purposes such as operating forms, maintaining security, remembering cookie preferences, and supporting the technical maintenance of the website.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require separate consent when they are required to provide a service specifically requested by the user.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies allow us to collect information about how visitors use our website. We use this information to improve the website’s content, structure, performance, and usability.
Analytics information may help us understand:
- how many visitors use the website;
- which pages are the most popular;
- how users navigate through the website;
- which devices and browsers are used to access the website.
We use analytics cookies only with your consent, unless the measurement is technically necessary, strictly limited, and implemented in a privacy-conscious manner.
Marketing cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to personalise advertising, measure campaign performance, and display content based on a user’s interests. These cookies may also be set by third-party service providers.
We use marketing cookies only when you have given your consent.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies help remember choices you make on the website, such as language settings, form selections, or other preferences that affect your user experience.
We use these cookies only when they are not strictly necessary for the basic operation of the website and you have given your consent.
3. Third-party services
Our website may use services provided by third parties, including analytics tools, map services, embedded videos, social media features, and marketing tools.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through the cookie settings.
Consent must be given through an active, informed, and voluntary choice. Continuing to use the website or referring only to browser settings is generally not sufficient to constitute valid consent for non-essential cookies.
