What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. The cookies are stored on your device when the website is loaded on your browser. These cookies help us make the website function properly, make the website more secure, provide better user experience, and understand how the website performs and to analyze what works and where it needs improvement.
How do we use cookies?
As most of the online services, our website uses cookies first-party and third-party cookies for a number of purposes. The first-party cookies are mostly necessary for the website to function the right way, and they do not collect any of your personally identifiable data.
The third-party cookies used on our websites are used mainly for understanding how the website performs, how you interact with our website, keeping our services secure, providing advertisements that are relevant to you, and all in all providing you with a better and improved user experience and help speed up your future interactions with our website.
How do we measure the use of the website?
We use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland Limited, to see how many people visit the website, where they come from and which pages they read. We use Microsoft Clarity, provided by Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited, to see how visitors move around the website, for example where they click and how far they scroll, so that we can find the places where the website is hard to use. Clarity masks the text that visitors type into forms. Microsoft Clarity and Microsoft Advertising may collect usage data through first-party and third-party cookies and use it for site optimisation, fraud and security purposes and advertising, as described in the Microsoft Privacy Statement. Google processes data as described in its Privacy Policy.
Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity set their cookies only after you agree to analytics cookies in the cookie banner. Without your consent, Google Analytics receives only anonymous signals without cookies and Microsoft Clarity does not run. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time with Consent Preferences at the bottom of every page. We also count visits with Umami, which uses no cookies and does not identify individual visitors.
