1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They can support essential functions, remember choices, help measure performance or enable third-party features. Similar technologies, such as local storage, may perform comparable functions.
2. Cookies we use
The current website uses strictly necessary technology needed for security and basic website operation. Cookie names can vary according to the website configuration.
| Category | Purpose | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session cookie | Maintains a secure website session and supports form functionality. | Session or up to 2 hours |
| CSRF security token | Helps protect forms and requests against cross-site request forgery. | Session or up to 2 hours |

3. Analytics, marketing and third-party cookies
BIILM does not currently set optional analytics or advertising cookies through this website. If optional cookies are introduced, we will update this policy and request an appropriate choice before setting them where consent is required.
Some pages may link to third-party services. Visiting those external sites may allow the third party to set its own cookies under its own policy. A link alone does not give BIILM control over those cookies.
4. Consent and strictly necessary cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required to provide a service you request or to keep the service secure and generally cannot be switched off through a site preference tool. Optional cookies require an appropriate choice before they are used where applicable law requires consent.
Simply continuing to browse is not treated by BIILM as consent to optional cookies.
5. Managing cookies
You can use your browser settings to view, block or delete cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent forms, security features or other parts of the website from working correctly.
Browser controls differ by provider; consult your browser’s help documentation for current instructions.
6. Changes and contact
We periodically review the cookies used by this website and will update this policy when our technology or legal obligations change.
