General information about cookies and how they are used

Cookies are data sent from a website and stored in your browser's memory.

Cookies may be required for a website to function properly, as websites are stateless (they do not remember user information from one internal page to another), but they are sometimes used to track user actions within one or more websites to collect usage information or identify interests and map behavior in order to offer relevant advertisements.

When websites use the CookieHub Consent Management Platform (CMP), they offer you the option to enable or disable certain categories of cookies, which helps protect your privacy. Below is a description of the most common categories of cookies.

Necessary cookies

Necessary cookies are used for the proper functioning of the website; they are generally not used for tracking and are not shared between websites.

The most common necessary action performed using a cookie is user authentication. When you log in to any website, a cookie is stored in your browser, including some data that the website uses to remember who is authenticated when you navigate to another internal page or refresh the page.

Cookies are also used to let the website know what is in your shopping cart, information about load balancing, and more.

Preference cookies

Preference cookies allow a website to remember information to customize how the website looks or behaves for each user. This may include storing the selected currency, region, language, or color theme.

Analytical cookies

Analytical cookies are not necessary, but they are used to collect valuable information about how a website is used, to identify problems and find out what needs to be improved on the site and what content is useful. In most cases, the collected information is anonymous, but some analytical services collect information that can be used to identify a user.

Marketing cookies

Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across various websites to enable publishers to display relevant and engaging advertisements.
