4. How consent is obtained
On the first Site visit we display a consent banner allowing you to:
- accept all categories;
- reject all non-necessary categories;
- manage each category individually.
Refusal does not block access to the Site's content. Until a choice is made, no non-essential cookies are activated.
5. How to withdraw or change consent
- Re-open the cookies banner via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer of any page;
- delete cookies in your browser - this triggers the banner again on the next visit;
- block cookies at the browser level - see section 6;
- provider-specific opt-out: Google Analytics opt-out https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout, Google Ads (ad settings) https://adssettings.google.com, Network Advertising Initiative https://optout.networkadvertising.org, YourOnlineChoices (EU) https://www.youronlineadvertisingchoices.eu.
