What are cookies?
We use the term “cookies” to refer to cookie modules and similar technologies through which information may be collected automatically.
An “Internet Cookie” (also referred to as a “browser cookie” or “HTTP cookie” or simply “cookie”) is a small file, consisting of letters and numbers, which will be stored on a user’s computer, mobile terminal, or other equipment through which the Internet is accessed.
Cookies are installed by a request from a web-server to a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome). Once installed, cookies have a specific lifespan, remaining “passive,” meaning they do not contain software programs, viruses, or spyware and will not access information on the user’s hard drive where they were installed.
A cookie consists of two parts:
- the name of the cookie; and
- its content or value.
Technically, only the web-server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that web-server.
For what purposes are cookies used on this website?
Cookies are used to provide users of this website with a better browsing experience and services tailored to the needs and interests of each user, specifically for:

What is the lifespan of cookies?

Session cookies – A “session cookie” is automatically deleted when the user closes their browser.
Persistent or fixed cookies – A “persistent” or “fixed” cookie remains stored in the user’s terminal until it reaches a certain expiration date (which may be a few minutes, days, or even years in the future) or until it is deleted by the user at any time via browser settings.
