(hereinafter: Controller)

Where a particular cookie is operated by a third party (e.g. Google), the data recorded in the cookie is sent to the operator. These operators are separate data controllers, independent of us. The availability of their privacy notices are indicated in the description of the given cookie.

2. What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on the hard drive of the computer or mobile device until the expiry date set in the cookie and is activated on subsequent visits to the site (it reports back to the web server). Websites use cookies to record information about the visit (pages visited, time spent on the pages, browsing data, exits, etc.) and personal preferences. This tool helps to create a user-friendly website to enhance the online experience of visitors. 

Cookies are distinguished according to their duration, purpose, and origin, as follows: 

2.1. Session and persistent cookies

Two types of cookies are distinguished according to their expiry date: “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”. 

“Session cookies” are stored on a computer, notebook, or mobile device only temporarily, until the visitor leaves the site; these cookies help the system to memorise information so that the user does not have to enter or fill out the information again. Session cookies are only valid for the user's current session and are intended to prevent data loss (for example, when filling in a longer form). This type of cookie is automatically deleted from the visitor’s computer at the end of the session or when the browser is closed.

“Persistent cookies” are stored on a computer, notebook or mobile device even after the user leaves the website. These cookies allow the website to recognise the visitor as a returning visitor. In all cases where user authentication is essential – e.g. online store, netbank, webmail – they are a prerequisite for adequate operation. Persistent cookies do not carry any personal data on their own and can only be used to identify the user in combination with the associated data stored in the server’s database. The expiry date of persistent cookies is indicated in the cookie description.

2.2. First party and third-party cookies

Where the cookie is installed on the device by our web server, it is called a first-party cookie; if the source of the cookie is a code inserted by an external service provider (e.g. Google) into the given website, it is a third-party cookie.

2.3. Necessary cookies, analytics cookies and marketing cookies

A “necessary cookie” provides functions that are essential to the operation of the website. (An example might be a form completion guide.) As the website cannot function without the cookie, the visitor's consent is not required for its use.

An “analytics cookie” collects statistical data how a visitor uses the website, which topics they view, what they click on, and how they scroll through the website. This helps us understand, for example, which articles are the most popular. The use of such cookies is not essential, and thus their use requires the consent of the visitor.

The purpose of a “marketing cookie” is to display targeted, personalised advertisements on various advertising spaces (e.g. Google, Facebook). This cookie analyses, for example, the means and the location of accessing the website, records the number of visits, the videos viewed, etc. 

The precise purpose of the cookies is indicated in the description.
