Similar technologies (such as local storage in your browser) may be used for the same purposes as certain cookies. On this Site we store your consent choices in browser local storage under the key associated with your preferences (see section 4), in addition to any cookies described below.
2. Legal Basis and Applicable Law

Strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies are used where necessary to provide a service you request (for example remembering your cookie choices) or for the legitimate operation of the Site, depending on the case.
