Our website uses cookies. Below, you will find further information on these cookies: what they are, which cookies we use, why we use cookies, and how you go about blocking or deleting cookies.

With the exception of cookies that are strictly necessary to enable you to move around the website and use its features, we will only use cookies if you have allowed us to do so by ticking the corresponding boxes.

 

WHAT IS A COOKIE?

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information, which are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device.

One type of cookie will save a file permanently on your computer. It can thereafter be used to customise this website based on your choices and interests. Another common type of cookie is the “session cookie”. When you visit a website, session cookies are sent between your computer and the server to collect information. Session cookies are not saved after you close your internet browser. You can find more information about cookies at www.allaboutcookies.org.

 

WHAT DO WE USE COOKIES FOR?

We use cookies to enhance the functionality of our website. For example, cookies help authenticate the user if the user logs in to a secure area of the website, to determine what information is made available on a particular webpage. Also, login information can be stored in a cookie, so the user can enter and leave the website without having to re-enter the same authentication information over and over. Cookies are also used to help you save certain information on the website, such as favourite products etc. They are also used for collecting statistics about user behavior to enable us to improve the website experience.

 

Our website also uses third-party cookies that are managed by Adobe, Baidu, Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, Twitter, VK, Yandex, Yuko and YouTube. All these third-party cookies will forward and store information about your use of the webpage (including your IP address) to countries outside the European Union. These third parties may also transfer your information to other third parties if required by law.

 

Therefore, when you agree to consent to the use of these cookies, you authorize us to pass collected and maintained personal data to any country, including non-European Union countries, which may not have adequate data protection for the purposes described in this statement.

 

By declaring your consent as set forth in this cookie notice, you therefore explicitly and unambiguously agree that personal data, or parts thereof, may be disclosed or otherwise transferred, as described above, to recipients in countries that may provide different, less or even inadequate protection of personal data as compared to the standards applicable in the jurisdiction you reside or work in or from where you contacted us.
