This website uses cookies which are stored on the user’s platform for the duration of his/her visit to the website and which are automatically deleted as soon as the user closes the browser (“session cookies”). The only information stored in cookies such as these is a characteristic string of characters which enables the browser to be clearly identified when the website is revisited (“session ID”).
