Why the Website Uses Cookies

During a visit to this website, files called “Cookies” may be placed on the user’s computer. These Cookies allow the website to be adapted to the user’s tastes and preferences and to present promotions and product offers that may be of interest to the user.

Types of Cookies

PREFERENCE COOKIES
These cookies allow websites to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, such as your preferred language or the region you are in. For example, by remembering your region, a website can provide you with local weather or traffic information. These cookies can also help you change text size, fonts, and other customizable parts of web pages. Losing the information stored in a preference cookie may make your website experience less functional, but it should not prevent the website from functioning.

This may include which pages users visit most often and whether users receive error messages from certain pages. So-called “session state cookies” help us improve our services by enhancing our users’ browsing experience. Blocking or deleting these cookies does not render the Website unusable.
ANALYTICS COOKIES
