This document informs Users about the technologies that help this Application to achieve the
purposes described below. Such technologies allow the Owner to access and store information (for
example by using a Cookie) or use resources (for example by running a script) on a User’s device
as they interact with this Application.
For simplicity, all such technologies are defined as "Trackers" within this document – unless
there is a reason to differentiate.
For example, while Cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, it would be inaccurate
to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile apps as they are a browser-based Tracker. For
this reason, within this document, the term Cookies is only used where it is specifically meant
to indicate that particular type of Tracker.
Some of the purposes for which Trackers are used may also require the User's consent. Whenever
consent is given, it can be freely withdrawn at any time following the instructions provided in
this document.
This Application uses Trackers managed directly by the Owner (so-called “first-party” Trackers)
and Trackers that enable services provided by a third-party (so-called “third-party” Trackers).
Unless otherwise specified within this document, third-party providers may access the Trackers
managed by them.
The validity and expiration periods of Cookies and other similar Trackers may vary depending on
the lifetime set by the Owner or the relevant provider. Some of them expire upon termination of
the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what’s specified in the descriptions within each of the categories below, Users
may find more precise and updated information regarding lifetime specification as well as any
other relevant information – such as the presence of other Trackers - in the linked privacy
policies of the respective third-party providers or by contacting the Owner.

How to manage preferences
There are various ways to manage Tracker related preferences:
Users can manage preferences related to Trackers from directly within their own device settings,
for example, by preventing the use or storage of Trackers.
Additionally Users can set their preferences within the cookie notice or by updating such
preferences accordingly via the relevant consent-preferences privacy widget, if available.
It is also possible, via relevant browser or device features, to delete previously stored
Trackers, including those used to remember the User’s initial consent preferences.
Other Trackers in the browser’s local memory may be cleared by deleting the browsing history.
With regard to any third-party Trackers, Users can manage their preferences via the related
opt-out link (where provided), by using the means indicated in the third party's privacy policy,
or by contacting the third party.
Locating Tracker Settings
Users can, for example, find information about how to manage Cookies in the most commonly used
browsers at the following addresses:
Google Chrome
Mozilla Firefox
Apple Safari
Microsoft Internet Explorer
Microsoft Edge
Brave
Opera
Users may also manage certain categories of Trackers used on mobile apps by opting out through
relevant device settings such as the device advertising settings for mobile devices, or tracking
settings in general (Users may open the device settings and look for the relevant setting).
How to opt out of interest-based advertising
Notwithstanding the above, Users may follow the instructions provided by YourOnlineChoices (EU
and UK), the Network Advertising Initiative (US) and the Digital Advertising Alliance (US), DAAC
(Canada), DDAI (Japan) or other similar services. Such initiatives allow Users to select their
tracking preferences for most of the advertising tools. The Owner thus recommends that Users
make use of these resources in addition to the information provided in this document.
The Digital Advertising Alliance offers an application called AppChoices that helps Users to
control interest-based advertising on mobile apps.

Users are free to decide whether or not to allow the use of Trackers. However, please note that
Trackers help this Application to provide a better experience and advanced functionalities to
