Cookie policy

What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device to make the site work efficiently, remember your preferences, improve your browsing experience, and ensure secure access to the service. Similar technologies (e.g., local storage) may be used for equivalent purposes and are collectively referred to as “cookies” in this policy. Cookies are stored in your browser´s file directory.

Types of cookies

Cookies are typically divided into the following categories:

  • First-party cookies: required for the website to function (e.g., authentication, security, language). Used to remember choices such as language, interface options, or saved states that enhance usability. These cannot be disabled without impacting core features.
  • Third-party cookies: set by domains other than this site, for example for maps, video embeds, or analytics services. Their use is governed by the respective providers’ policies.
  • Session cookies: session cookies are only active during a browser session. They allow to link the actions of a user during a browser session. Session cookies expire when you close the browser or shortly thereafter.
  • Persistent cookies: persistent cookies have longer expiration dates which exceed the duration of a browser session. They are activated each time the user revisits the website that created the cookie. They remain on a user´s device for the period of time specified in the cookie. Typical expiration dates for persistent cookies can range from a couple of days to a couple of years.

Cookies used on this website

The application primarily uses strictly necessary and functional cookies to ensure secure access and a consistent experience. Below is a non-exhaustive overview:

  • Session / Authentication (first-party, session): ensures login, authorization, and protection from CSRF. Without these cookies, the service will not work.
  • Preference (first-party, persistent): stores UI/language selections and minor interface settings to streamline repeated visits.

    • Managing cookies and retention

    You can control or delete cookies via your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, including those already stored. Disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent the site from functioning correctly.

    Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for the period indicated in their parameters or until manually removed. Functional preferences are kept only as long as necessary to provide the requested features.

    Updates and contacts

    This Cookie Policy may be updated to reflect changes in services or applicable regulations. Significant changes will be highlighted within the website. For information or to exercise your rights, please contact the Data Controller:
