        • first party cookies, which are created directly by websites or scripts on the same domain. They are most often used to provide the basic functionality of the Website;

        • third party cookies are created by other websites. These websites own some content on the website you visit, such as advertisements, images or videos.

      2. According to their durability, cookies can also be divided into:

        • session cookies are temporary and are stored on the device only until the user finishes working with the web browser, and are deleted after closing it. These cookies are essential for the proper functionality of the website or associated applications;

        • permanent cookies are used for easier and more convenient navigation on the website (e.g. easier and faster navigation). These cookies remain in the browser for a longer period or until they are manually deleted. The length of this period may depend on the selected web browser settings.
