We use the described cookies via Google Analytics (a service, provided by Google Inc.) and other services provided by Google, as well as via our own cookies – managed by us.

Google Analytics collects first party cookies, as described above. The information collected using these cookies is sent to Google and is used to evaluate how our web page is being used (for statistics purposes). We will not associate any data gathered with any personally identifying information. We will not link or seek to link any cookie information with any IP address or with the identity of a computer user. Besides the analytics and statistics purpose, we might use advertising cookies to deliver ads that we believe are more relevant to you and your interests.
