2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit it. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences, to work properly, and to collect information about how it is used. Similar technologies, such as scripts and pixels, work in a comparable way, and this policy covers them as well.

3. How we use cookies

We use the following categories of cookies:

Strictly necessary (functional) – required for the website to work, for example to remember your cookie choices. These cannot be switched off and do not require consent.
Preferences – remember settings you choose, such as language or region.
Statistics – help us understand how visitors use the website, so that we can improve its content and performance. The information is aggregated and is not used to identify you.
Third-party content (marketing) – set by external services whose content is embedded on our website, such as videos, maps and social media. These providers may use cookies to track your activity across different websites.

We do not use cookies for targeted advertising.

Except for strictly necessary cookies, no cookies are placed until you give your consent through our cookie banner. Until you accept, embedded content such as videos and maps is blocked and replaced by a placeholder.
