Various cookies are used on our website. They can be categorized both by their duration and by their purpose of use.
In terms of duration, we use both session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are only retained until you close your browser. We also use persistent cookies, which remain for a longer, predetermined period.

Most web browsers accept cookies, but you can usually change these browser settings yourself to block the saving of new cookies, delete existing cookies, or request a notification when new cookies are saved.
If you want your browser to block the use of cookies, configure your settings according to your browser manufacturer's instructions (usually in the Help, Tools, or Edit menu).
If you block or disable cookies, some features of our website may not function properly. Disabling a cookie or cookie category does not yet delete the cookie from your browser; you must do that yourself via your browser. You can find instructions for this from your browser provider.
