Cookies

To make this site work properly, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. Most big websites do this too.

 

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

 

How are they used?

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to perform its functions. We use these cookies for example:

to establish the authenticity and identity of our users when they use our website so that we can provide our services

in order to be able to comply with our Terms and Conditions and to maintain the security of our services

 

Example

Many of our pages use cookies to store:

information about whether you have already completed a survey of the usefulness of site content so you will not be asked again

information on whether you agreed or not to use cookies on this site

In addition, some of the videos embedded on our pages also use cookies to collect anonymous statistics about how you got to the page and which videos you were watching.

Allowing cookies is not strictly necessary for the website to work, but will contribute to its better use. You can delete or block cookies, but some features on the site may not work properly.

The cookie-related information is not used to establish your identity and data samples are entirely under our control. Cookies are not used for other purposes than the specified here.
