You are not required to accept non-essential cookies to use our website. We use a layered consent mechanism to provide users with key information upfront and request their explicit consent before placing performance, functional, or advertising cookies. At any time, you may review or update your cookie preferences using the tools provided on our site.

COOKIES AND TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device (such as a computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit or interact with it. These files contain data that help websites remember information about your visit, such as your language preference, login status, or browsing activity.

In addition to cookies, we may use other types of tracking technologies to collect and store information about your interaction with our website or services. These include:

  • Web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs) – These are tiny graphics embedded in emails or web pages that are used to monitor user behavior, such as whether an email has been opened, or a link has been clicked.
  • Local storage and session storage – These are technologies provided by your web browser that allow websites to store larger volumes of data directly on your device. Local storage persists until manually cleared by the user, while session storage is cleared once the session ends.
  • Device fingerprinting – This technique involves collecting information about your device’s unique characteristics (such as browser type, operating system, installed fonts, and screen resolution) to create a unique identifier. It allows for user recognition without placing a traditional cookie file.

We are committed to using cookies and tracking technologies in full compliance with applicable data protection legislation, including GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, which require transparency, proportionality, and your prior informed consent for most types of non-essential tracking.

You will always be informed about the use of such technologies, and where required, your active consent will be requested before their deployment.

PURPOSE OF COOKIES

Cookies and similar tracking technologies are used on our website to serve a variety of purposes that support both the technical functionality of the site and your overall user experience. Each category of cookie has a specific role and is used in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

We classify the cookies into the following categories base on their purpose:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies – These cookies are essential for the operation of our website and cannot be disabled in our systems. They enable core functionalities such as page navigation, secure access to protected areas, fraud prevention, and user authentication. Without these cookies, certain services or features cannot be provided, and the website may not function as intended.
  • Performance and Analytics Cookies – These cookies collect anonymous or aggregated information about how visitors use our website-such as which pages are visited most often, how users move through the site, and whether they encounter any errors. The insights gained from these cookies help us optimize website performance, improve user experience, and measure the effectiveness of our content and structure. These cookies do not directly identify individual users.
  • Functional Cookies – These cookies remember the choices you make to enhance your experience, such as your preferred language, region, or other details. By remembering your preferences, these cookies allow us to provide a more personalized and consistent experience during repeat visits. If you do not allow these cookies, some of these services may not function properly.
  • Advertising and Targeting Cookies – These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to your interests. They may be set by us or by third-party advertising partners and are used to build a profile of your interests and show you targeted ads on other sites. They also help us measure the performance and effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. These cookies typically rely on unique identifiers tied to your browser and internet device.

We use each type of cookie for a clearly defined and legitimate purpose. Cookies are not used to collect personally identifiable information (PII) unless you have provided your explicit consent. Where required by law, non-essential cookies are only activated after you have given your informed and freely given consent through our cookie management mechanisms.

LEGAL BASIS FOR USING COOKIES

The legal basis on which we process data collected through cookies and similar tracking technologies depends on the type and purpose of the cookie. We ensure that the deployment and use of cookies on our website fully comply with the principles and requirements established by GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive

Cookies that are strictly necessary for the functioning of our website do not require your prior consent. We process these cookies based on our legitimate interests under GDPR, namely, our interest in delivering a website that is secure, stable, and functions as intended. These cookies enable critical services such as security features, fraud prevention, load balancing, and access to secure areas of the site.

Cookies that serve analytical, functional, or advertising purposes are considered non-essential and are only activated if and when you provide your explicit consent. This includes:

  • performance and analytics cookies, which measure traffic and usage patterns;
  • functionality cookies, which store preferences and enhance usability;
  • advertising and targeting cookies, which deliver tailored ads and track campaign effectiveness.

The processing of data through these cookies is based on your consent, pursuant to GDPR. You may give or withdraw your consent at any time by interacting with our cookie banner or cookie settings tool, accessible at any time on our website.

We do not pre-tick boxes or use implied consent. Our cookie consent mechanism is designed to ensure that consent is:

  • freely given – users have a genuine choice without detriment;
  • specific – consent is given for specific purposes or categories;
  • informed – users are clearly told what they are consenting to;
  • unambiguous – there is a clear affirmative action (e.g. opt-in toggle).

We also maintain a record of consents given, as required by GDPR, and periodically request users to renew their choices to ensure continued compliance.

CONSENT MANAGEMENT

When you first access our website, you will encounter a cookie consent banner that provides clear and concise information about our use of cookies and similar tracking technologies. This banner gives you full control over your cookie preferences and offers the following options:

  • “Accept all cookies” – to consent to the use of all cookies, including non-essential ones (such as analytics, functionality, and advertising cookies);
  • “Reject non-essential cookies” – to allow only strictly necessary cookies to be used, thereby disabling all cookies that require consent;
  • “Configure preferences” – to customize your cookie settings and select specific categories of cookies you wish to enable or disable.

We follow a granular consent model, meaning you can choose to consent to one or more categories of cookies independently. This ensures that your consent is specific and reflects your actual preferences.

Your selected preferences are stored securely in a cookie on your device and will be respected during future visits, unless you clear your browser cookies or decide to change your settings. The duration of consent storage is limited to what is necessary and is periodically reviewed to remain in compliance with applicable laws.

If you wish to update, manage, or withdraw your consent to the use of cookies, you may do so at any time by deleting cookies through your browser. Please note that changes may take effect only after you refresh the page or revisit the site.

We do not use pre-ticked checkboxes, default opt-ins, or implied consent mechanisms. All cookies that require consent will only be placed after you have actively agreed to their use through an unambiguous and affirmative action.

Our consent management platform is designed to be fully compliant with the GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, ensuring that your rights and choices are always respected.

COOKIE STORAGE

Each cookie used on our website is retained for a defined period, depending on its purpose and duration. The retention period ensures that cookies remain on your device only as long as necessary to fulfil their intended function. The types of storage are as follows:

  • Session cookies (typically used for strictly necessary purposes) – These are temporary and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They support essential functions such as maintaining session integrity and enabling secure navigation.
  • Persistent cookies (used for performance, functionality, and advertising purposes) – These remain on your device for a predefined period or until you delete them manually. They help us remember your preferences, measure website performance, and deliver relevant advertisements.

We regularly review and assess all cookies to ensure that their retention period is appropriate, necessary, and aligned with the consent you have provided. We only store cookies for as long as they are needed to fulfill their specific purpose. If a cookie is no longer required, it will be deleted or deactivated.

In compliance with applicable data protection laws, we do not retain cookies for longer than is necessary for the purpose they serve, and we ensure that once their retention period expires, they are automatically deleted or rendered inactive.

THIRD-PARTY COOKIES AND DATA SHARING

In addition to cookies we set directly, our website may also use third-party cookies that are placed by external service providers, such as analytics platforms, advertising networks, and social media integrations. These third-party cookies are deployed to support various functionalities and improve your browsing experience. Specifically, third-party cookies may be used to:

  • analyze usage trends and track how users interact with our website (e.g., Google Analytics);
  • deliver targeted advertisements across different websites and tailor content based on your interests;
  • measure advertising effectiveness, such as click-through rates or conversions;
  • link user activity across multiple devices, sessions, or platforms to build cross-device user profiles.

These cookies are subject to the privacy policies and practices of the third-party providers that set them. We do not control how these third parties use your data, but we aim to work only with partners that uphold high data protection standards.

To safeguard your personal data, we take the following protective measures, where applicable:

  • entering into Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) with third-party processors;
  • applying Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or other lawful transfer mechanisms for international data transfers;
  • enforcing data minimization, pseudonymization, or anonymization techniques to reduce privacy risks;
  • evaluating third-party practices to ensure they are aligned with GDPR and other applicable privacy regulations.

We do not sell your cookie data or browsing history to any third party. All third-party cookies requiring consent are disabled by default and will only be activated after you have explicitly agreed to their use through our cookie consent mechanism.

For more detailed information about the third-party services we use, please contact us directly at the details provided in this Policy.
