WHAT DATA IS COLLECTED FROM COOKIES AND HOW IS IT USED? 

This website uses third-party analytic cookies (such as Google Analytics) in order to improve the quality and content of our website. Analytic cookies tell us how the website is being used, helping us continuously optimize our services. Usage data may be transmitted to and stored by the third-party cookie provider. We only transmit such data where we have the appropriate consents to do so (where such consent is required under your local law). The Marketing, Statistics, and Functional cookies are third party analytic cookies.

We gather information commonly provided by web browsers and servers, including details such as the operating system, browser type, language preference, the location of the site visitor, and the date and time of each visit to our website.
