What is a cookie?

A cookie is a file that is placed on your computer or other IT equipment. Among other things, cookies make it possible to recognize your computer and gather information about which pages and functions you use on a website.

Cookies are used by virtually all websites. In some cases, cookies are the only way to make a website work as intended. This site also uses cookies. At the bottom of this page you can see an overview of the different cookies, their purpose, who offers them and how long they are stored.

Cookies are stored for each browser. This means that if you later visit the site here with another browser, you will again be asked to consent to cookies and cookies will be stored for that particular browser.

How to give or withdraw consent to cookies

With Cookie Consent Settings, you can use checkboxes to consent to the different types of cookies. If you want to withdraw consent, simply uncheck the box.

You can also delete cookies altogether or individually in the browser. How you do it depends on which browser you use. If you use multiple browsers, delete cookies in all of them.

Be aware though that you may also lose some saved information (e.g. saved login details, site preferences, etc.).

How to block cookies

If you want to completely avoid cookies, you can disable cookies in your browser – this will apply to all websites. Note that you will then not be able to log in or use other features that require a website to remember your choices.
