FIRST-PARTY TRACKING COOKIES
Tracking cookies are those cookies which we place on your device, and which can be requested when you visit a website in our network. This lets us know that, in addition to our website, you have also visited other relevant websites from our network. The resulting profile is not linked to your name, address, e-mail address, etc., but is only intended to match advertisements to your profile to ensure that they are as relevant to you as possible. One of these first-party tracking cookies is Hotjar, which we use to make our website as user-friendly as possible. Hotjar helps us to gain a better understanding of our users’ needs and to improve our website, by measuring the time spent on each page, recording which links are clicked, which content is viewed frequently, etc. This enables us to optimise our website based on real user feedback. Hotjar uses cookies to gather data about your behaviour on the website and about your devices, such as your IP address (which is stored anonymously), screen size, type of device, browser type, geographical location (country only) and language. Neither we nor Hotjar will ever use this information to identify individual users or to match this data with anything else. For more information, please refer to Hotjar’s privacy policy.
ANALYTICAL COOKIES

We have, however, allowed Google to use the Analytics information obtained for other Google services, such as Google Adwords and Google Tag Manager.
