Types of cookies and their purpose

There are two types of cookies altogether: session cookies and permanent cookies. Cookies are also divided into first-party or third-party cookies. The following concepts are explained below to help you better understand the nature of cookies and why we use them.

Session cookies allow you to be recognised when you visit a particular website, memorising any changes or choices on a particular site to save them on other pages as well. These cookies allow you to quickly and easily use multiple pages of the same website, avoiding the need to process each visited page. Session cookies are not permanent – they will expire when you close your web browser or pause a session on a particular website.

Permanent cookies are cookies stored on your computer for a specific time after the end of the web browsing session, thus they allow a user’s choices or actions to be saved on the site and be used the next time the user visits this site.

First-party cookies are cookies maintained by structures administered by the site's maintainer.

Third party cookies are maintained by other domains that do not belong to us. Third-party cookies can be stored on your computer, phone, or tablet when you browse our website.
