What we set

Four kinds of cookie, one clear rule

A cookie is a small text file. Your browser stores it as you read. We group ours into four plain classes. The rule is simple. Only the necessary ones run before you choose.

  • Always on

    Strictly necessary

    These cookies keep the site running. They handle page routing and basic security. The site cannot work without them.

    Retention Session
  • Optional

    Preferences

    These remember your choices. They store your consent answer and your locale. Return visits then feel smoother.

    Retention Up to 12 months
  • Optional

    Analytics

    These show us how the site is used. They count visits and popular pages. The data stays aggregated, never tied to your name.

    Retention Up to 24 months
  • Not used

    Marketing

    We run no ad-tracking cookies today. If that ever changes, we will ask first. You stay in control of the choice.

How to manage cookies

You hold the switch. There are four easy ways to control what stays. Pick whichever suits you.

  1. Use the banner

    Open the cookie banner on any visit. Accept or reject in one click. Your choice is saved.

  2. Check your browser

    Every major browser can block cookies. It can also delete the ones already stored.

  3. Try private mode

    Browse in a private window. Most cookies clear the moment you close it.

    Email us if you need a hand. We will point you to the right setting.
