We and our partners use cookies to provide the relevant services. This also applies when you visit our website or access our services.
A ‘cookie’ is a small data packet that is assigned to your device by a website when you visit it. Cookies are useful and can be used for various purposes.

c. ‘Third-party cookies’ , which are set by other online services that are represented with their own content on the page you are visiting. These can be, for example, external web analytics companies that track and analyse access to our website.
