For a general view of our approach to the privacy of your personal data, please see our Privacy Policy.

A cookie is a data file, which often includes a unique identifier, that is sent to your browser from a web server and is then stored on the hard drive of your computer or on your mobile device that you use to browse our Site. When you revisit our Site again, or another website that recognises the same cookie, your device is able to communicate with the website and the website can read the information held in that cookie. Cookies are used to improve the efficiency of websites, to improve the user’s experience, and to provide usage information on websites. This information should make your website visits more productive by storing and using information on your website preferences and habits.

On our Site, users have the option of agreeing to the use of cookies in principle and thus being able to use all functions of the website without restrictions, as well as the option of not receiving cookies at any time or of personalizing cookies by agreeing to the use of certain cookies. Please be aware that if you do not accept cookies, or deactivate the use of cookies which are subject to consent, these cookies may then be unable to do what they are intended for. For example, if you deactivate functionality cookies, the respective functions of the website cannot be used. Therefore, your consent is required if you want to use certain functions provided by cookies. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by modifying your cookie setting as set out in Section “How to control and delete cookies” below.

We offer you a convenient option of rejecting or approving individual cookies or groups of cookies generally used on our Site through a pop-up banner that appears when you come to our Site. Alternatively, you can also enable or disable cookies at any time by changing your browser settings.

Search for “cookies” under your web browser's “Help menu” for more information on cookie management features available to you.

Please be aware that if you choose to disable some or all cookies, then not all features of our Site may operate as intended and you may be unable to complete certain activities on our Site or to correctly access certain parts of it. For example, without cookies enabled, you may need to “Sign In” manually upon each visit, instead of the cookie automatically filling these details in for you.

We may modify or update this Policy from time to time. Such amendments might become necessary due to the need to keep the Policy up to date, given changes in our business practice or in response to legislative changes, and whether they are international or national changes.

If we change this Policy, we will notify you of the changes by posting them on our Site. Where changes to this Policy will have a fundamental impact on the nature of the processing or otherwise have a substantial impact on you, we will give you sufficient advance notice by adding a prominent notice on our Site as required by applicable law so that you have the opportunity to exercise your rights.
