7. Consent
When you visit our website for the first time, we will show you a banner with an explanation about cookies. As soon as you click on "Accept", you consent to us using all cookies and plug-ins as described in the banner and this Cookie Policy. If you click on "Deny", you do not consent to the Statistics and Marketing categories. Under "View preferences" you can choose the categories: as soon as you click on "Save preferences", you consent to us using the categories of cookies and plug-ins you selected in the banner, as described in this Cookie Policy. You can disable the use of cookies via your browser, but please note that our website may no longer work properly.
Until you make a choice, and if you deny consent, Google Analytics and Google Ads still measure visits without cookies (Google's consent mode): they send measurements to Google without cookies and, if you arrived from an ad, with the identifier of that click, which is passed on in the address of the pages you visit. Microsoft Clarity and HubSpot also measure without cookies: Clarity with a different identifier for each page view, and HubSpot by counting page views anonymously. Facebook and Pinterest only load if you consent to Marketing.
7.1 Manage your consent settings
You can change your choice or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking on "Cookie settings" at the bottom of any page: the banner opens again with the categories. If you withdraw your consent for a category, we delete the cookies of that category stored under our domain; those that third parties keep under their own domains can be deleted from your browser (section 8). We keep your choice for 12 months: after that, we ask you again.
8. Enabling/disabling and deleting cookies

Another option is to change the settings of your internet browser so that you receive a message each time a cookie is placed. For more information about these options, please refer to the instructions in the Help section of your browser.
Please note that our website may not work properly if all cookies are disabled. If you do delete the cookies in your browser, they will be placed again after your consent when you visit our website again.
