Introduction to Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of data that are stored on your internet-enabled device by websites you visit. They are used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners. There are different types of cookies, each serving a specific purpose:
-
Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the website to function and deliver you a safe, uninterrupted experience, such as maintaining user sessions and preventing security threats. Without these cookies, some services cannot be provided.
-
Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance which pages visitors go to most often, if they receive error messages from web pages, and how long they stay on a page. These cookies do not collect information that identifies you personally—all information collected is aggregated and used to improve the performance of our website.
-
Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to the website, so they are there the next time you visit.
-
Targeting/Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to you and your interests. They may be used to deliver advertisements tailored to you, limit the number of times you see an advertisement, and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
