3. Types of cookies we use
We use the following categories of cookies on our Website:
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of the Website and cannot be switched off in our systems.
They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms.
If you block these cookies, parts of the Website may not function properly.
Performance / analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our Website (for example, which pages are visited most often, how long visitors stay, and whether they receive error messages).
We use this information to improve the performance and usability of the Website.
These cookies are set only with your consent.
Functional cookies
These cookies allow the Website to remember choices you make (such as language preferences) and provide enhanced, more personalised features.
They may be set by us or by third‑party providers whose services we have added to our pages.
These cookies are set only with your consent.
Advertising / targeting cookies
These cookies may be set through our Website by advertising partners in order to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites.
They do not store directly identifiable information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
These cookies are set only with your consent.
The exact cookies used, including their names, providers, purposes, duration, and type, are listed in the cookie banner and in the dynamically generated cookie declaration kept up to date by our consent management platform (e.g. CookieYes).

Our consent management platform regularly scans the Website and updates the list of cookies used.
In the cookie banner or cookie settings panel, you can find a detailed overview including for each cookie:

Because the cookies in use may change when we update our Website or add new services, this dynamically generated list is the most accurate and up‑to‑date record.
5. Legal basis for using cookies
Where cookies are strictly necessary to provide the Website and its core functions, the legal basis for using these cookies is our legitimate interest in providing a secure and functional online service.
For all other cookies (analytics, functional, advertising), we rely on your consent, which you can give or refuse through the cookie banner and settings panel.
6. How to manage your cookie preferences
You can manage your cookie preferences in the following ways:

You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies.
Please note that if you block all cookies, the Website may not function properly.
Instructions for managing cookies can usually be found under the “Help” or “Settings” menu of your browser.
Opt‑out mechanisms for specific providers
For example, if we use Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics Opt‑out Browser Add‑on.
7. Third‑party cookies
Some cookies on our Website are placed by third parties, such as analytics or embedded content providers (e.g., Google, Vimeo, YouTube, social media platforms).
These third parties may process your personal data as independent controllers according to their own privacy policies.
We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of these third parties for more information about how they handle your data.
8. International data transfers
If third‑party providers process data in countries outside Canada, the EU, or the EEA, we take appropriate safeguards to ensure an adequate level of data protection, such as standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions where applicable.
Details can be found in our Privacy Policy and, where relevant, in the documentation of the respective third‑party providers.
9. Retention periods
The storage duration of individual cookies varies: some are session cookies (deleted when you close your browser), while others are persistent cookies that remain on your device for a defined period.
The exact retention period for each cookie is shown in the cookie banner / cookie declaration generated by our consent management platform. After expiry, the cookie is automatically deleted unless it is renewed when you revisit the Website.
