This Cookies Policy is a part of our Terms and Privacy Policy. It applies to all our websites listed in section 1 of the Privacy Policy.
Cookie is a small piece of information placed by a website to the user computer. These small files enable the server to provide you with the information that is customized with your needs when you use some platform or website for the next time. Websites can also keep similar information in your browser’s local storage and session storage; this policy covers those too.
Cookies are used to enhance your user experience. Among these Cookies are, for example, those used for the management of the first party statistics employed directly by the owner of the site. But this is not the only beneficial thing the cookies can do. Cookies are also the tool that enables the behavioral advertising. If you have searched for some goods or services, and the certain business offers such goods or services, cookies on your computer could help such business to advertise their goods or services to you later. Cookies enable the owner of the website or platform to see the actions and the user’s preferences on the website or platform, analyze this information and provide the user with more relevant information on services the user is currently using or may use.
Some of the services collect statistics in aggregated form and may not require the consent of the user or may be managed directly by the owner – depending on how they are described – without the help of third parties.
We may install on your device the following types of cookies:
In addition, we set two first-party measurement cookies for every visitor, whatever the choice: tmd_guest and tmd_guest_session. They count anonymous visits and sessions and are described in the table below.
Which banner you see depends on where you are. Our network provider tells your browser only your country, and your browser keeps just the result (whether to ask you first) for the current tab, never the country.
Everywhere, our own measurement cookies are set and page views are recorded before any choice. When you save any choice, including “Reject all”, we also set the visitor identifier cookies sess and tmd_gp, with which we record your choice on our server.
Your browser keeps your choice for 180 days; after that we ask again. Section 3.9 of the Privacy Policy describes the record of your choice that we keep on our server.

Data that we collect with the cookies are processed in accordance with provisions of our Privacy Policy. For instance, these data can be accessed by our employees. The Privacy Policy also lists the service providers that receive these data (section 4) and how long we keep them (section 6).
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time with “Cookie settings” in the footer of our pages. If you withdraw functional consent, we delete your preference cookies and the recent searches linked to your browser. Withdrawing consent does not sign you out. Your choice itself stays stored, so that we remember it.
You can also remove or block cookies in the settings of your browser.
