Types of cookies
Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
Performance cookies: These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.
Functional cookies: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
Advertising cookies: PwC may present ads to you on other sites to promote relevant services, articles or events. The cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you and your interests. They also perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing. These advertisements are solely intended to make you aware of relevant PwC promotions. PwC does not sell your data to any third parties. Please see our privacy policy for more details.
Session cookies: This is temporary information stored in the browser's memory until the end of the browser session, i.e. until it is closed. These cookies are mandatory for some applications or functionalities to work properly.
Permanent cookies: Thanks to them, the use of frequently visited websites is easier (e.g. they ensure optimal navigation, remember the selected resolution, content layout, etc.). This information remains in the browser's memory for a longer period. This time depends on the choice that can be made in the browser settings. This type of cookie allows information to be sent to the server each time a page is visited.
