A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. The text file contains no program code, is not malicious and does not contain any information that can be linked to you as an individual.
First party cookies are cookies set by the website you are visiting. Only that website can read them. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies.
Every time you visit the ST4RIS website, you will be prompted to accept or refuse cookies.
The purpose is to enable the site to remember your preferences (such as user name, language, etc.) for a certain period of time. That way, you don’t have to re-enter them when browsing around the site during the same visit.
Cookies can also be used to establish anonymised statistics about the browsing experience on our sites.
How do we use cookies?

- store visitor preferences
- make our websites operational
- gather analytics data (about user behaviour)
Some of our pages display content from external providers, e.g. YouTube. To view this third-party content, you first have to accept their specific terms and conditions. This includes their cookie policies, which we have no control over. But if you do not view this content, no third-party cookies are installed on your device.
