Cookie Statement

We use “cookies” on our website. These are files that store information in the web browser. Your consent is required for this. We use cookies in accordance with Act C of 2003 on Electronic Communications, Act CVIII of 2001 on certain issues of electronic commerce and information society services, and applicable European Union rules. Websites operating within the European Union must request users’ consent to use cookies and store them on a user’s computer or other device.

Cookie policy
This policy applies to the cookies on the domain’s website.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small files containing letters and numbers. A cookie is a tool for exchanging information between the web server and the user’s browser. These data files are not executable, do not contain spyware or viruses, and cannot access the contents of users’ hard drives.

What are cookies used for?
The information sent by cookies helps browsers be recognized more easily so users can receive relevant, personalized content. Cookies make browsing more convenient, including for online security needs and relevant advertising. Website operators can also create anonymous statistics on visitor habits; these insights allow editors to better tailor the look and content of the site.

What types of cookies might you encounter?
Websites may use:

Session cookies, which remain on your device until you leave the website.
Persistent cookies, which remain for longer based on your browser settings or until you delete them.
Third‑party cookies placed by third parties (e.g., Google Analytics) when the visited site uses third‑party services.

Strictly necessary session (session‑ID) cookies:
Essential for navigating the site and operating features. Without accepting these, the website or parts of it may not display or may malfunction.

Analytics or performance cookies:
Help distinguish visitors and collect data on how they use the website. For example, they ensure the site remembers your login when requested. They do not collect information that can identify you; data are stored in aggregate and anonymously (e.g., Google Analytics).

Functional cookies:
Improve user experience. They detect and store, for example, which device you used, or data you previously provided and asked to be stored: automatic login, selected language, text size, font, or other customizations. They do not track your activity on other sites. The information collected may include personal identifiers you have shared.

Targeting or advertising cookies:
Allow websites to provide information (marketing) most relevant to your interests, with your explicit consent. These cookies collect detailed information about your browsing habits.

Do cookies contain personal data?
Most cookies do not contain personal information and cannot identify users. Stored data serve more convenient browsing and are stored to prevent unauthorized access.

Why are cookies important?
Cookies make browsing more comfortable by setting ads and content based on browsing history. Disabling or restricting cookies may render some websites unusable. It does not mean you will not see ads; rather, ads and content will not be personalized. Examples of cookie use:

Displaying content, services, and products tailored to user needs.
Offers aligned with user interests.
Remembering login when requested (stay signed in).
Remembering parental control/safe search preferences.
Limiting ad frequency on a given site.
Showing ads relevant to the user.
Geotargeting.

Security considerations
Cookies are not viruses or spyware; they are simple text files and not executable programs. However, information can be concealed in cookies with malicious intent, allowing spyware‑like behavior, so antivirus tools may flag or delete them. Because devices and web servers exchange data continuously, an attacker could extract information stored in cookies if they intercept traffic, for example due to improperly encrypted Wi‑Fi. This risk underscores the need for secure configurations.

Managing and deleting cookies
Cookies can be deleted or disabled in the browser. By default, most browsers allow cookies; you can disable them and delete existing ones in settings, and enable notifications when a site sends cookies. Disabling or restricting cookies can degrade browsing experience and may cause site features to malfunction.

Settings are typically in the browser’s Options or Settings menu. Each browser differs; consult Help or these links to adjust cookie settings:
