This document informs Users about the technologies that help this Website to achieve the
purposes described below. Such technologies allow the Owner to access and store information (for
example by using a Cookie) or use resources (for example by running a script) on a User’s device
as they interact with this Website.
For simplicity, all such technologies are defined as "Trackers" within this document – unless
there is a reason to differentiate.
For example, while Cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, it would be inaccurate
to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile apps as they are a browser-based Tracker. For
this reason, within this document, the term Cookies is only used where it is specifically meant
to indicate that particular type of Tracker.
Some of the purposes for which Trackers are used may also require the User's consent. Whenever
consent is given, it can be freely withdrawn at any time following the instructions provided in
this document.
This Website uses Trackers managed directly by the Owner (so-called “first-party” Trackers) and
Trackers that enable services provided by a third-party (so-called “third-party” Trackers).
Unless otherwise specified within this document, third-party providers may access the Trackers
managed by them.
The validity and expiration periods of Cookies and other similar Trackers may vary depending on
the lifetime set by the Owner or the relevant provider. Some of them expire upon termination of
the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what’s specified in the descriptions within each of the categories below, Users
may find more precise and updated information regarding lifetime specification as well as any
other relevant information – such as the presence of other Trackers - in the linked privacy
policies of the respective third-party providers or by contacting the Owner.

How to manage preferences
and provide or withdraw consent
There are various ways to manage Tracker related preferences and to provide and withdraw consent,
where relevant:
Users can manage preferences related to Trackers from directly within their own device settings,

Additionally, whenever the use of Trackers is based on consent, Users can provide or withdraw
such consent by setting their preferences within the cookie notice or by updating such
preferences accordingly via the relevant consent-preferences widget, if available.
It is also possible, via relevant browser or device features, to delete previously stored
Trackers, including those used to remember the User’s initial consent.
Other Trackers in the browser’s local memory may be cleared by deleting the browsing history.
With regard to any third-party Trackers, Users can manage their preferences and withdraw their
consent via the related opt-out link (where provided), by using the means indicated in the third
