I. What are cookies and local data storage (cookies and similar technologies)?

“Cookies” are small text files that are downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you access websites. First-party cookies are those that are determined by the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies are those cookies that are used by domains other than the website you are visiting.

Similar to “cookies”, local storage technology, if used, allows websites to store information on a computer or mobile device. Local storage is usually permanent, and unlike cookies, data in local storage is not automatically transferred to the Internet every time when the website that was stored is visited.

II. How do we use cookies and similar technologies?

We use “cookies” and similar technologies on our Website in order to:

  • improve the presentation of relevant websites and the user experience,
  • measure the exposure of advertisements and online media by determining when, how often, on which websites certain online advertisements, media and other content are displayed on your device.

III. Types of cookies:

Our website may use the following types of “cookies”:

(1) Еssential cookies:

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to perform its functions. We use these cookies, for example, in the following cases:

* to establish the authenticity and identity of our users when they use our Site so that we can provide our services;

* so that we can perform our duties and maintain the security of our services.

(2) Performance and functionality cookies:

These cookies are not strictly necessary, but allow us to customize your online experience with our websites. We use these cookies for example

* to monitor the use of our services and our Sites (frequency and time);

* to determine how often you and other users visit our Sites

Often these cookies are intended to provide ads that are tailored to you – both on our sites and on external ones. This type of advertising is known as “interest-based advertising”. Many of these types of cookies belong to our service providers.

(4) Session cookies:

We may also use session cookies, in order to:

* allow you to move between the individual pages of our Site without the need to log in again. This practice is known as single sign-on;

* recognize you when you return to our Site to use our services;

* take the answers to the tests to show your result;

* save the answers to a completed questionnaire form (and not to have to fill in the questionnaire form many times).

How do we use cookies?

VII. Can website users block “cookies”?
