Embedded YouTube videos
Some pages contain YouTube videos. When a page with a video is loaded, YouTube (Google LLC) may set its own third-party cookies on your device, for example:

YouTube may also set other cookies, which Google may use for advertising purposes as well. Google manages them under its own policy: policies.google.com/technologies/cookies.
Other external resources
Some parts of the site are loaded from third-party servers. They do not set cookies through our site, but to be delivered they receive your device's IP address:
- Google Fonts: the Montserrat typeface used for text.
- jsDelivr: graphic and functional libraries of the site (Bootstrap, icons, jQuery).
- YouTube: the embedded videos described above.
- Google reCAPTCHA: only on the contact page, to check that the form is filled in by a person.

- Google Tag Manager: manages the loading of the analytics and marketing tools described above.
Card payment takes place on an external page of the bank's payment portal, which uses its own technical cookies according to its own policy. Links to our Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Pinterest profiles lead to those sites: our site does not embed their tools (apart from the YouTube videos and the Meta pixel described above) and does not set any other cookies of theirs.
