WHAT ARE COOKIES?

A cookie is a file that is downloaded onto your computer when you access most websites. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about a user’s or device’s browsing habits and, depending on the information they contain and how the device is used, they may be used to recognize the user.

When you access a website that uses cookies, the site causes the browser to create small files on your device (computer, tablet, phone or similar) with the information necessary for the website to function. These files, called cookies, are part of the technology required for the correct operation of the website.

Cookies do not contain any specific personal information, and most of them are deleted from the hard drive at the end of the browser session (so-called session cookies), although your browsing history and cookies are stored on your device. Cookies, similarly to browsing history or browser cache, may leave a trace of your online activity. This is especially important if other people can access your device. Therefore, if you are using a shared device, we recommend that before logging out you delete browsing history, cache and cookies.

Most browsers accept cookies as standard and, regardless of this, allow temporary or stored cookies to be allowed or blocked in their security settings. It is therefore possible to disable cookies, but the website will not function properly. You can completely disable the use of cookies in your browser settings.
