Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on the visitor’s computer and contains information. Cookies are normally used to improve the website for the user. There are two types of cookies: One type saves a file that remains on the visitor’s computer. These cookies are used, e.g., to be able to customise a website according to the visitor’s wishes, choices and interests. The second type is called session cookie. While a visitor is on a website, this cookie is temporarily stored in the memory of the visitor’s computer. Session cookies disappear when you turn off your browser application. If you do not consent to the use of cookies, you can turn off cookies in your browser’s security settings. You can also set up your browser so that you get a warning every time a website tries to place a cookie on your computer.

Analysis tools for web statistics

BTH uses the Matomo and Monsido services to produce web statistics. These services use cookies to collect information about how visitors use our website, where they come from, and so on. All data are anonymised prior to transfer, and no information can be traceable to a specific user.

Embedded movies

When we embed videos from third-party services such as YouTube on our pages, these services also store a cookie on your computer.
