What are cookies?
Cookies are small files that are recorded in the browser used by each visitor to our website, allowing the server to remember the visit of that user later when they re-access our content. This information does not reveal your identity, or any personal data, nor does it access the content stored on your computer, but it does allow our system to identify you as a specific user who has already visited the website before, viewed certain pages, etc., and also allows us to save your personal preferences and technical information such as the visits made or specific pages you visit.
The purpose of cookies is to provide the User with faster access to the selected Services.
With regard to third-party cookies, i.e. those that are external to our website, we cannot be held responsible for the content and veracity of the privacy policies they include, so the information we offer you is always with reference to the source. Some of them may have their servers outside the European Union, which results in international data transfers. You can find out about transfers to third countries that, where appropriate, are made by the third parties identified in this cookie policy in their corresponding policies (see the links provided in the “Third-party cookies” section).
