What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by the websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.  Most browsers support cookies, but you can set your browser to control them or decline them completely and you can delete them whenever you like.

Cookies we use:

The following section lists which cookies our website uses. These include strictly necessary cookies needed for the functioning of the site and performance cookies used to monitor the use of our website.
 
Analytics cookies
 
We use Visitor Analytics. It is a simple website analytics service that measures the traffic on our website and website visitors' general details. We collect statistics like which pages visitors visit and when, where they are approximately located, where they land first, or if they are coming from a specific referral, to make our website visitors' experience better. As a website operator using Visitor Analytics, we process information about our visitors' device type and screen size/resolution, approximate location, browser, OS, IPs, page visits, bounce rate, conversions, conversion funnels, average sessions per visitor, average pages per session, average session duration, time spent on the website and preferably visited content on the website. All this data is pseudonymized and Visitor Analytics will not use the collected data to identify individual users or to match the data with additional information on an individual user. We do not use cookies to collect this data. Instead, we use the so-called fingerprinting technology that does not require placing any cookies, files or technology on your device. Fingerprinting relies on your device’s technical attributes and combines them to identify your device as a unique device and allow for reliable analytics.
