Basic Information
Cookies: what are they, and what are they used for?
The cookies are the files sent by a web server to your browser and stored on your computer. These files help us analyse web traffic and identify which part of our website has been visited. Our website also uses such files to be able to address each user individually, tailoring activities to the needs of specific users by collecting and storing information about preferences as well as to enable logging in. This information is only used for statistical data analysis – when the analysis is completed, these data are deleted from our systems.
The cookies do not allow us to access your computer or information about you except for information about how you use our website and personal information that you choose to share with us (including personal details that you share with us because of your browser settings).
In order to monitor and improve our website, we collect aggregate information about the users as they browse our pages, including (but not limited to) details of the operating system, browser version, domain name, IP address, the URL from which the users arrive at our website and where they click, and which pages of our websites they visit. We may keep general statistics, collect website traffic data and information about related websites. We may share these aggregate data with third parties for marketing, advertising or other promotional purposes. However, but these aggregate data do not contain any personal information. For the same reasons, we may collect information about how the users use the Internet through the use of the cookies stored on the disk drives of their computers. The cookies contain information that is transferred to the disk drives of users' computers. This helps us to improve our website and offer better and more personalised services.
