Cookie policy

Updated 20.5.2018

In our online services, we use long term and short term "cookies" to develop services, personalize content suggestions and user experiences, and target advertising. For the sake of simplicity, the term "cookie" in this policy, refers to other similar techniques alongside the actual cookies.

Cookies allow text based information, such as a browser tag or language selection, to be placed in the user's browser. Long term cookies are available to the site, which set the cookies, while the user is navigating the site, even if the user closes the browser in between or visits other online services. Short term cookies are only available to that site and will disappear when the user closes the browser or visits another site.

Cookies allow user information to be collected for different uses. For more information about the collected information, please see our Privacy Policy.

We have divided cookies into categories according to their intended use. The user has the opportunity to control the use of permanent cookies from the cookie settings on our site or from the cookie settings of a more widely used browser. Below are examples of the uses of each category of cookies and how the use of cookies in that category is visible to the user of the online service.

The user may choose to block the use of permanent cookies in this category, whereby the ads displayed on the sites are based on short term cookies and on the content displayed instead of long term cookies. However, blocking does not reduce the amount of advertising on the sites.
