1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (such as your computer, tablet or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the site owners.

3.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of our Website and to enable you to move around and use its features. Without these cookies, services you have asked for (such as accessing secure areas or submitting forms) cannot be provided.
