Definition of Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as preferences, actions, or technical characteristics.

Cookies are widely used across modern websites to support essential functionality and improve usability. They do not typically contain information that directly identifies you as an individual, but they may be linked to other data that does.

Cookies can serve a wide range of purposes, including:

Enabling basic website functionality

Remembering user preferences
Measuring website traffic and performance
Supporting marketing and communication efforts

In addition to cookies, similar technologies such as pixels, tags, scripts, and local storage may be used for related purposes. For simplicity, all such technologies are referred to as "cookies" in this Policy unless stated otherwise.

Cookies can be categorized in several ways depending on their function, duration, and origin.
