Cookies and / or similar technologies are a focal point of the efficient operation of the Internet, helping to generate a friendly browsing experience tailored to the preferences and interests of each user. Declining or disabling cookies may make some sites or parts of sites impossible to use.

Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require a user to authenticate through an account):

• Content and services tailored to user preferences - product and service categories.

• Offers adapted to users' interests

• Remembering passwords
