1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don't have to re-enter them whenever you come back or navigate between pages.
In addition to traditional cookies, we may use similar technologies such as localStorage (browser-based key-value storage) for storing your cookie consent preferences on your device.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
- To ensure the basic functionality of the website (strictly necessary).
- To remember your cookie consent preferences (stored in localStorage).
- To analyse how visitors use our site in order to improve it (analytics — with consent).
- To present relevant content across platforms (marketing — with consent).
