Why Do We Use Cookies?
To ensure the website functions properly
Cookies ensure that all website features work as intended, such as loading content and images correctly in their appropriate formats.
To understand how visitors use the website
Cookies help analyze visitor behavior, such as scrolling and navigation, to gain insights into website usage. For instance, identifying frequently visited pages allows us to optimize the navigation menu for a better user experience.
To identify popular content
Cookies allow us to determine which pages or sections are most visited. For example, knowing which articles engage visitors the most helps us create similar content in the future.
To improve functionality and user experience
Cookies enable us to monitor technical issues, such as broken links or error pages (e.g., 404 errors), and resolve them quickly. For example, if a subpage is renamed or removed, cookies help us track such changes to ensure users encounter fewer issues.
In summary, if you agree to the use of cookies, the data will be used to generate engagement statistics. Among other things, we will find out how many times a particular page has been read. We use this information to improve the content on the site or to create new articles and pages on topics of greatest interest.
This data is not shared with other entities or recipients. Analytics are presented in graphical form on an encrypted administration page, accessible only to the site owner.
Where is the data stored?
The data collected through cookies are stored on the servers of our website host, SquareSpace, located in the United States. SquareSpace is a global company that respects the laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. With data servers located in the U.S., SquareSpace handles personal data from around the world in a secure and privacy-friendly manner. SquareSpace complies with the Data Privacy Frameworks (in accordance with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Frameworks) to provide a legal basis for transfers of personal data to the U.S. from, where applicable, the EEA, Switzerland and the UK. SquareSpace has certified its compliance with the Data Privacy Frameworks. You can find our certification through this external link with proprietary policies, and you can learn more about the Data Privacy Frameworks (as determined based on the country from which personal data was received) and DPF Principles by visiting this external link with proprietary policies.

Managing your cookies
If you wish to manage or disable local cookies, you can do so through your browser settings. For detailed instructions, consult your browser’s help section or the links below:
• Safari
• Edge
Certain elements of the website require the use of cookies. Graphical elements or applications on the website may work less well if you disable cookies. However, we strive to maintain optimal website performance even without cookies.
Your free choice as a visitor
Upon your first visit, and every 30 days thereafter, a pop-up will appear asking for your consent to use cookies. This pop-up appears before any non-essential cookies are activated, giving you full control over your privacy.
The pop-up is clear and easy to understand. You are given three options to indicate your preferences:
- “Accept All”: Gives you permission for all cookies.
- “Decline All”: Declines the use of non-essential cookies.
- “Settings”: Allows you to choose which categories of cookies you want to allow.
Once your preferences are saved, the pop-up will disappear, but a small button at the bottom of the page will remain for you to manage cookies at any time. After 30 days, the pop-up will reappear to refresh your preferences. This behavior is defined by law.
Your right to delete data
You can delete all stored cookies on your device by clearing your browser’s history, which removes cookies from all websites you’ve visited.
In any case, you have the right to request the removal of your data from our statistics. For security reasons, we may ask you to identify yourself to ensure we process the correct data. Please include a copy of the relevant cookie if you wish to view linked personal data. You can find this cookie in your browser settings.
