We will explain below how these technologies work and how you can manage them based on your preferences.

IN DETAIL: COOKIE TYPES & MANAGEMENT
What do you need to know about cookies?
Cookies help to provide a better and faster online experience. Almost every website uses cookies or similar technologies.
The next time you visit the same website using the same device, the website that originally triggered the setting of the cookie will recognize that you have visited the website before, and in some cases, it adapts the content to take account of your most prior visits. In this way, the website experience can be tailored to your personal interests and preferences.
First-party cookies versus third-party cookies
First-party cookies are cookies that Magical Change deploys on the website that you are currently visiting and with which you interact when you use our websites.
Our websites may also contain content from other websites which may deploy their own cookies. These cookies are set by someone other than Magical Change. These third-party providers can set cookies while you are visiting the Magical Change website and receive information such as the fact that you have loaded a Magical Change website. You will need to visit the websites of those third parties to find out more on how they use these cookies. You can find more information about the relevant third parties further in this Cookie Policy.
If you have decided that you do not want to accept third-party cookies, you do not need to give consent or you can withdraw your consent by using the relevant function provided in the section “Cookie Settings”. If you object to all third-party cookies, you will only be provided with those functionalities on our website which we can guarantee will work without these cookies.
What happens if I reject cookies?
If you decide to reject cookies that require your prior consent, we will not use such cookies. If you decide to withdraw consent that was given to us previously, we will no longer use the relevant cookies and will delete them (if they are first-party cookies). The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. This means, that in the case of personalization and advertising cookies, you will not be able to take advantage of all the features and functionality of our website. Similarly, it is possible for you to reject analytics cookies. In that case we will be less able to learn what you like or do not like about our website, so that we can make it better.
We cannot delete third-party cookies. If you wish to delete all third-party cookies, you need do this in your own browser settings. Also, if you reject or withdraw your consent to advertising cookies, you will not necessarily receive less advertising – but the advertising you see will not be customized to suit your needs.
Managing cookie settings via your browser
You can also manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to accept or reject all cookies, or only certain types of cookies. Visit your browser’s help section for more information on how to manage cookies.
