Our website, like most others, uses cookies and other similar technologies (web beacons, pixel tags and the like) in order to provide services that best match your needs, and to collect statistical information for the analysis and improvement of our services and websites.
This Cookie Notice (hereinafter the «Notice») forms part of the Privacy Policy.
By using this website you confirm your consent to the use of cookies and other similar technologies in accordance with this Notice.

What cookies and other similar technologies are
A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer, smartphone or other device that you use to visit the website.
Some of the pages you visit may also collect information using pixel tags and web beacons, which are electronic images known as single-pixel (1×1) or clear GIF images.
Cookies may be placed on your device by us («first-party» cookies) or by other operators («third-party» cookies).
We use two types of cookies on the website: «session cookies» and «persistent cookies». Session cookies are temporary files that remain on your device until you leave the website. Persistent cookies remain on the device for a long period of time or until you delete them manually (how long a cookie stays on your device depends on the duration, or «lifetime», of the particular file and on your browser settings).
These files provide information that helps us assess the effectiveness of our services and websites and improve them. For example, to find out when you visit our website, how you use it, how you interact with email newsletters and other content, to remember your preferences, to provide protected and secure service for online transactions and the like.
The information collected by such files and technologies is aggregated in nature and is not linked to the identification of individual users.
However, when you purchase particular products and services from us, we may use the contact details you provide in the transaction together with the information obtained through cookies and similar technologies in order to analyse how you use our website and to improve it. We process such contact details in accordance with the Privacy Policy.
Types of cookies that may be used on our website
Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies allow you to visit websites and use their features. Disabling them makes the websites harder to operate and may make their features and services unavailable.

Advertising cookies. They are used to deliver targeted advertising and help us evaluate the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. We may share these files with the relevant advertising systems and platforms where our advertising is placed.
Email. We may also use technologies that allow us to track whether you have opened, read or forwarded particular messages we have sent to your email address. This is necessary to make our means of communication more useful to the user. If you do not wish us to receive such information, you need to cancel your subscription using the «Unsubscribe» link at the bottom of the relevant email newsletter.
Social network buttons. They are used so that users can share a link to a page on social networks or create a bookmark. These buttons are links to the websites of social networks owned by third parties, which in turn may record information about your activity on the internet, including on our website. Please read the relevant terms of use and privacy policies of such websites to understand how they use your data and how you can opt out of their use of your data or have it deleted.
Third-party web services. Sometimes we use third-party web services on this website. For example, to display certain elements (images, video, presentations and the like), to run surveys, to pay for products and services through payment systems and the like. As with social network buttons, we cannot prevent these websites or external domains from collecting information about how you use the content of the website.
