Cookies can be distinguished by type, and by which party they are placed.
All cookies have an owner which tells you where the cookie comes from. Cookies that are placed by us are called first party cookies and we use them for example to remember information about you such as your language preference or login information.

We use these for example for our advertising and marketing efforts.
