3. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a website. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser; persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting, while third-party cookies are set by another service provider’s domain.

4. Cookies we use

The first-party cookies used through the Website’s own domain are limited to those strictly necessary for it to operate securely and correctly. Third-party processing associated with embedded Google Maps is described in section 5. We do not use cookies or similar technologies for analytics, advertising, marketing or social media tracking. As strictly necessary cookies are essential to provide the Website, no separate consent is requested for them.

5. Third-party services and links

Google Maps is embedded on our Contact page. The map loads without a separate button when the relevant area of the page is displayed, and your browser connects to Google servers. Google may process technical data such as your IP address, browser and device information during this connection. Depending on your browser settings, Google account sign-in status and the service configuration, Google may use cookies or similar technologies. Cookies associated with this service are separate from the first-party cookies listed above; the cookies used and their retention periods may vary according to Google’s policies and your settings.

The “View on map” link and the links to Instagram and LinkedIn open the relevant service’s website when you click them. Cookies and data processing on those services are governed by the respective provider’s privacy and cookie policies. The Website does not embed third-party videos or social media content.

For visitors located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, strictly necessary cookies are used in line with the exemption for cookies essential to providing a service requested by the user.

Should analytics or marketing cookies be added to the Website in the future, they will be used only after obtaining your explicit consent through a separate cookie preference panel, and this policy will be updated accordingly.
