Cookies set by the site

Like most sites, the site makes use of cookies. Cookies are small, innocuous text files that in no way affect the privacy of the user or the security of the user’s device.

The site uses cookies to enhance the user experience and improve performance.

Web Analytics Cookies

The site uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies” to help the publisher analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about the user’s use of the site (including the user’s IP address from which the last byte is truncated with the “_anonymizeIp()” method) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating how the user uses the site, compiling reports on the site activity for the publisher and website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.

Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google will not associate the user’s IP address with any other data held by Google.

By using the site, the user consents to the processing of data about the user by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above. If this is not the case, the user should adapt his or her cookies settings as explained below.

The user has the option to disable Google Analytics Tracking on the site by clicking this link. This will place an opt-out cookie on the user’s device that will prevent the user’s sessions from being tracked, as long as the cookie remains installed on the user’s system.

Google Conversion Tracking

The publisher uses the advertising platform Google Ads, a service of Google Inc. ("Google"), to promote its business by placing ads on Google's own and affiliated websites. To measure and optimize the success of these advertising campaigns, the publisher utilizes the Google Conversion Tracking feature. When a user clicks on an ad placed by Google AdWords from the publisher, a cookie is placed on the user's device. This cookie expires after 30 days and is not used to personally identify the user. For the duration of the cookie's validity, Google and the publisher can link the original ad to the user's visit to the publisher's website, who otherwise remains anonymous.

Conversion Tracking allows the publisher to gather statistical and anonymous information about the performance of its advertising campaigns. Neither the publisher, Google, nor any third-party Google Ads provider can personally identify the user in this manner.

In addition, we utilize the advanced conversions feature to measure the performance of our advertising campaigns even more precisely. With advanced conversions, data we collect, such as email addresses or phone numbers, are sent to Google in an encrypted form after a conversion on our website has occurred. Google can use this information to refine Conversion Tracking and provide us with more precise data about the success of our advertising efforts. It is important to emphasize that all shared data is in encrypted form, and neither Google nor we are capable of using this information for personal identification of users.

The user can refuse the use of Google Ads Conversion Tracking by disabling cookies in their browser. See cookies settings below. Additionally, Google offers an opt-out option from Google Ads Conversion Tracking at https://adssettings.google.com.

Google Ads Remarketing

Google AdWords Remarketing will display relevant ads tailored to the user based on what parts of the publisher’s website the user has viewed by placing a cookie on the user’s device. This cookie does not contain any personal data and its purpose is not to personally identify the user.

Google Ads Remarketing allows the publisher to tailor its marketing to better suit the user’s needs and only display ads that are relevant to the user.
