What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

How do we use cookies?

We use cookies to remember personal preferences such as language choice for content. We also use cookies to anonymously gather analytics data that helps us to understand how people use our websites so that we can improve them. Some videos embedded in content on our pages use a cookie to anonymously gather statistics on how you got there and what videos you visited in order to suggest other, related videos to watch.

In most cases they don’t contain personally identifiable data. On certain websites, including registration pages, recruitment pages and questionnaires, you may be asked to provide additional information, such as an email address.
