3. Cookie consent
When you visit the Websites for the first time, we may ask you to provide us with your consent to our use of cookies via a cookie consent banner (e.g., if your IP address indicates that you are based in the EU). If, after being served a cookie consent banner, you do not provide your consent to our use of all cookies, we will serve you technical cookies only that are strictly necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the Websites. The use of such cookies does not require your consent. Please note that we may not be able to provide you with the best possible user experience if not all cookies are enabled.
If you are not served a cookie consent banner when you visit the Websites, we will automatically use all cookies listed in section 2 above.
4. How to disable cookies?
If you are served a cookie consent banner, you have the freedom not to provide consent for statistics, marketing, and other non-strictly necessary cookies that we use on the Websites.
If you would like to refuse our use of non-essential cookies on the Websites, you can do it at any time by declining cookies in your browser or device. Please note that some parts of the Websites may not function properly without cookies.

5. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, the business analytics service provided by Google, Inc. located in the United States (“Google”) to analyse your use of the Websites. Google generates statistical and other information by means of cookies and we use its services to create reports about your use of the Websites. The cookies served by Google Analytics are anonymous first-party cookies (please refer to section 2 for more information) that do not allow us to identify you in any manner. The information generated by cookies about your use of the Websites (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. To ensure your privacy, your IP address will be anonymised and Google will not combine your IP address with other information Google holds about you. Thus, Google will not be able to identify you.
In certain cases (e.g., when required by law or when third parties conduct services on behalf of Google), Google may transfer the information to third parties. For more information about Google Analytics’ privacy practices, please visit https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245.
If you would like to opt out from Google Analytics, you can do so by installing a Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

For more information on opting-out from advertising features on your device, please visit https://www.networkadvertising.org .
7. Google ReCAPTCHA
We have implemented reCAPCHA, the service provided by Google, to verify whether you are a human being and not a robot. It helps to protect the Websites against spam and abuse. The reCAPTCHA analysis takes place in the background. When you use reCAPCHA, Google will collect some personal and non-personal data from you, such as:
-
- All cookies set to your browser by Google in the last 6 months;
- Information about your mouse clicks;
- CSS information;
- Date;
- Browser language;
- Any plug-in installed in the browser; and
- Javascript objects.
The above-mentioned data will be sent to Google located in the United States. We have a legitimate interest in protecting the Websites from abusive automated crawling and spam.
