Cookie Policy

Since May 2011, a new privacy law has been deliberated by the European Parliament regarding the requirement for websites to request permission from users to use cookies. The law, now called the EU Cookie Law, is an amends to some earlier directives (precisely from 2002) on user rights in web communications and services, personal data and privacy protection. Here is the full text of the law for consultation.

1.What are cookies?

Cookies are computer files or partial data that may be stored on your computer (or other Internet-enabled device, e.g., smartphone or tablet) when you visit a Site.

Usually a cookie contains the name of the website from which the cookie came, the cookie’s ‘lifespan’ (that is, how long it will remain on your device), and a value, which is usually a randomly generated unique number.

2.What do we use cookies for?

We use cookies to make using our site easier and to better understand your interests and needs.

3.What kind of cookies do we use?

Two types of cookies may be used on our site – ‘session cookies’ and ‘persistent cookies’. ‘Session cookies’ are temporary cookies that remain on your device until you leave the Site.

Some of the pages you visit may also collect information through ‘pixel tags’ (also known as ‘clear gifs’) that may be shared with third parties who directly assist our promotional activities and website development. For example, website usage information about people who visit the Site may be shared with our third-party advertising agency to optimally target banner ads on our websites. In any case, the information is not personally identifiable, although it may be docked with your personal information.

The site uses Google Analytics to collect information about users’ use of its website. Google Analytics generates statistical and other information through cookies, stored on users’ computers.
