This Cookie Policy explains what cookies we use on our website, for what purposes, and how you can manage them. We comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable ePrivacy rules.

1) What are cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They help the site work properly, remember your preferences, measure usage, and—where enabled—support marketing and social media integrations. Similar technologies (local storage, pixels, SDKs) may be used alongside cookies.

2) Types of cookies we use

  • Strictly necessary – required for core functionality and security (e.g., page navigation, forms, fraud prevention). These do not require consent.

  • Preferences (functional) – remember choices such as language or display settings.

  • Analytics – help us understand how the site is used (e.g., aggregated traffic and events) so we can improve it (for example, Google Analytics 4 with IP-masking).

  • Marketing & social media – enable integrations with platforms such as YouTube, Facebook/Meta, TikTok, and help show more relevant information in our campaigns.

The exact cookies and providers may change over time. Our cookie banner and/or settings panel shows the current categories in use.

3) Legal basis & your consent

We use strictly necessary cookies on the basis of our legitimate interests in operating a secure, functional website.
We use non-essential cookies (preferences, analytics, marketing) only with your consent. On your first visit we display a cookie banner that lets you accept all, reject all (non-essential), or customize categories. You may change your choices or withdraw consent at any time via the banner/settings link in the footer.

4) Third-party cookies & transfers

Some cookies are set by third parties (e.g., analytics, video embeds, social pixels). These providers may process limited data (such as truncated IP, device identifiers) and, in some cases, transfer data outside the EEA under lawful safeguards (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses). We share only the minimum necessary data and aim to use privacy-enhancing settings where available (e.g., anonymization, no personalized ads).

5) Retention & expiry

  • Session cookies expire when you close the browser.

  • Persistent cookies remain for a defined period (typically 1–13 months, depending on the category and provider) unless you delete them earlier in your browser.

6) Managing cookies

You can manage cookies by:

  • using our cookie banner/settings to change or withdraw consent; and/or

  • adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies, or limit third-party cookies.

Note: blocking some cookies may impact site functionality or embedded content.

7) Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. The latest version is available on this page with the effective date.
