Below, we explain each one of the categories to help you understand what they are.
STRICTLY NECESSARY COOKIES
These cookies are essential for basic functionalities of the Site and cannot be disabled by users. They enable you to move around our Site and use the features, particularly in connection with information searches and order placement. Without these cookies, services you have asked for cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather data about you that could be used for marketing or remembering where you have been on the internet.
Some examples of strictly necessary cookies are:

PERFORMANCE COOKIES
These cookies are used to enhance the performance of a website but are not essential to its use. However, without these cookies, certain functions may become unavailable. These cookies collect data about how you use our Site such as the pages you go to most often and if you get any error messages from certain pages. These cookies collect data that are used for improving how the Site works. Without these cookies, we cannot learn how our Site is performing and make relevant improvements that could enrich your browsing experience.
An example of a performance cookie is Google Analytics:

Without these cookies, our Site cannot remember your choices or personalize your browsing experience.
ADVERTISING COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
We may use these cookies or similar technologies to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you. They may be used to limit the times you see an advertisement as well as to help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. These cookies may track your visits to other websites. Without these cookies or other technologies, online advertisements you encounter will be less relevant to you and your interests.

8. OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES (E.G. WEB BEACONS)
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track website visitors. We may also use other similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (also called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Sites or opened an email including them. This allows us, for instance, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver cookies or communicate with them, to understand whether you have come to our Sites from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve the website performance, and to measure the success of e-mail marketing campaigns. In many cases, these technologies rely on cookies as far as functionality is concerned. Thus, declining cookies will also impair the functioning of web beacons.

Please therefore revisit this Cookie Statement regularly in order to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
