Cookies
Our website uses cookies to provide better service.
We may, with your consent, use cookies to analyse the number of visits to our websites, parts of our web page you browse and the length of time you spent on them.
Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer, smart phone or any other device for accessing the Internet each time you visit these web pages.
The Electronic Communications Act states that we may store cookies on your device if they are strictly necessary for the operating of the site. For all other types of cookies, we need your consent. This site uses different types of cookies. Some cookies are set by third parties that use our site.
On our web page we use the following types of cookies:
Necessary & Performance cookies
We use page-request specific cookies, which is an anonymous timestamp of the page requested allowing the website to identify if the person accessing the website is an administrator or a public user. This cookie updates with the current encrypted timestamp, and expires in 30 days (which is the default server’s PHP session time).
These same cookies allow the system to enhance the performance of the website, as it contains a reference pointer to the cached view queries, in order to speed up load times instead of investing server resources to process scripts and queries on each request.
Analytics, marketing and third-party cookies
In order to gain better understanding of our users we can also use information that we collect and combine or use information received from third parties (for example, using Google Analytics in order to establish the percentage of our visitors who belong to a specific age group or are located in a specific area).
We use Google Analytics, which creates numerous first-party cookies. They enable us to make sure that later visits to our web page are assigned to the same (unique) visitor, and they tell us how you have found us. Google Analytics is a tool that helps website owners measure the user’s behaviour when interacting with the web content.
To provide website visitors with the ability to prevent their data from being used by Google Analytics, Google has developed the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on for websites using the supported version of Google Analytics JavaScript (analytics.js, gtag.js).
If you want to opt-out, download and install the add-on for your web browser, the Google Analytics opt-out add-on is designed to be compatible with Chrome, Internet Explorer 11, Safari, Firefox and Opera. In order to function, the opt-out add-on must be able to load and execute properly on your browser. For Internet Explorer, 3rd-party cookies must be enabled. https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en
Session Cookies: we use these cookies to assign a randomly generated unique identification number to your computer each time you visit one of our web pages. The validity of a session cookie automatically expires when you close the browser. Session cookies are used to support the functionality of our web pages and to find out more about your usage of our web page or pages you have visited, which links you use and how long you spend on each page, on which part of the page you decided to leave it, etc.
Persistent Cookies: they allow web pages to recognize the user on their next visits and serve to speed up or optimize your online experience, the services or functions offered by the web page. Persistent cookies do not expire right after you close your browser, but rather remain on the hard drive until they expire after a certain period of time or are deleted by the user.
