Cookies may be temporary (session cookies) that are in use only during your visit to our website and are deleted after you close your browser; or permanent, remaining on your device’s ROM after you have left our website up until you delete them manually or when your browser does so after a certain time has passed.

We use some temporary cookies to remember you when you visit our website, but we allow third parties (especially Google) to use analytical cookies on our websites (both temporary and permanent) for the purpose of collecting aggregate data about the most visited parts of our websites and to monitor our advertisements.

We do not allow other third party cookies on our websites that track your Internet use for target marketing purposes (online behavioural advertising).

Social network icons

In order to implement the icons of social networking sites, such as Facebook and YouTube, and connect them to corresponding networks and external sites, scripts from these domains beyond our control are in use. You should bear in mind that these sites most likely gather information about your Internet use, including from our site. If you click on one of these icons, the sites register this action and may use that knowledge. You should read each site’s respective policies to find out how precisely your information is used and how can you refuse to impart that information or delete it.
