What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on a user’s device while browsing a website. They can maintain a session, remember the selected language or privacy settings and — after any required consent — measure website use. Session cookies are deleted when the browser is closed, while persistent cookies remain for a specified period or until deleted.
When we use cookies
Strictly necessary cookies may operate without separate consent when required for the website to function or to provide a service requested by the user. Other categories should only be enabled after the user makes a choice. Users should be able to refuse them and change their decision later.
Cookie categories
Third-party content and services
The website may use third-party services such as YouTube videos, Google Maps and the EmailOctopus newsletter form. Their providers may use their own technologies and process data under their policies. Embedded content that is not strictly necessary should be activated in line with the user’s choice.
Cookies used
This list should be updated whenever the tools or integrations used by the website change.Consent and withdrawal
On the first visit, the user should receive clear information about the technologies used and be able to accept or reject cookies other than strictly necessary ones. Withdrawing consent should be as easy as giving it and does not affect the lawfulness of earlier processing.
Managing cookies
Settings can be changed in the website privacy-preferences panel and in the browser settings. Deleting or blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent some functions from working correctly. Detailed instructions are available in the browser’s help section.
