Cookies
Under the Electronic Communications Act, anyone who visits a website that uses cookies should receive information on:
⇒ that the site contains cookies
⇒ what these cookies are used for
⇒ how cookies can be avoided as well as
⇒ consent to the use of cookies
We therefore want to inform you that we use cookies on this site. A cookie is a small text file that the website you are visiting saves on your computer,
a technical support that in various ways facilitates your use of the website you visit. There are two types of cookies. One type, permanent cake, saves
a file for an extended period of time on the visitor's computer. For example, it is used in features that tell you what's new since you last visited the current site.
The second type, temporary cookie, is used only during the time you are browsing a page.
Why do we use cookies?
Cookies make our web server recognize you and allow you to explore the site. Each page you visit sends a unique identification to your computer.
When you request the next page, your browser will send this unique identification back to the server, which can compare the value with what was first sent
to you. If these two values are the same, the server decides that you are recognized and gives you the page you requested.
If the two values do not match, or if it is
a long time ago since the identification was created, a new identification will be created and, if you were logged in, you will need to log in again.
In other words, cookies are required to make full use of this site.
We ask you to see our cookie as a unique password (which only applies once) to the next page you intend to visit. The password is valid for one hour and
does not work if used from another computer or web browser.
In other words, you can say that double logins are required to access our database. The first is done automatically via the cookie system and
the other you do yourself after registering.
We never store any personal information about you in cookies, but it is a unique hexadecimal string and date and time stored on your computer.
The same string is also stored in the web server database and allows us to recognize you at the next page request.
You can examine the cookie file yourself if you wish. Where it is located on your hard drive is determined by which browser you are using.
To avoid cookies
You can choose whether or not you want to accept cookies on your computer. If you do not want to receive them, you can make a setting on your computer
that allows your browser automatically refuses cookies, or chooses to be informed every time a site requests to store one.
You can also delete cookies manually from your hard drive at any time. You can read how to do these settings on your browser's help pages.
Consent to use of cookies
Visitors to our site consent to the use of cookies by the browser being set to allow cookies to be received. If you choose not to accept
cookies this site will be of use for you. The pages that work without cookies are the Start page and this page. All other sites require cookies
and, if they are not allowed, you will always be redirected back to the Start Page as the system will then see you as a new visitor.
