How MDS uses cookies and similar technologies, the categories involved and the choices available to you.
Essential technologies may be required for security and core website functionality.
Preference, analytics and marketing technologies are controlled according to applicable consent requirements.
You can use available consent controls or browser/device settings to manage relevant technologies.
Blocking certain technologies may reduce functionality or measurement quality.
MDS does not sell personal data.
Cookies are small files or identifiers used by browsers and websites. Similar technologies can include pixels, SDKs, local storage, server-side identifiers and comparable tools.
These technologies may be session-based or persistent, and may be set by MDS or by third-party providers used to deliver website functions, analytics or marketing.
The exact technologies present can change as the website and provider stack changes.
Where applicable, non-essential technologies are activated according to the consent choices presented to you. You may be able to update or withdraw those choices through a consent banner or preferences control.
You can also manage cookies through browser settings and, for some advertising technologies, through device or platform privacy controls. Changes normally affect future use of non-essential technologies rather than information already lawfully processed.
MDS may use third-party providers for hosting, security, analytics, video, scheduling, communications, advertising and other website functions. Those providers may use their own technologies subject to their privacy and cookie terms.
The provider mix can change over time. We aim to configure providers consistently with applicable consent and privacy requirements.
Where a consent-management platform or browser-accessible register is available, it should be treated as the most current operational list of cookie names, providers, categories, purposes and durations because those details can change with deployments and provider configuration.
A register should ordinarily identify the technology name, provider, category, purpose, typical duration and whether it is first-party or third-party.
Cookie and tracking requirements differ by jurisdiction. MDS applies opt-in, opt-out or other controls where required by applicable law and may respond to recognized browser or device privacy signals where legally required and technically supported.
Some regions provide specific rights related to targeted advertising, sale or sharing of personal data or automated processing. See the Privacy Policy for broader privacy rights.
Blocking non-essential cookies should not prevent basic access to public content, but some preferences, embedded features, analytics, attribution or personalized experiences may not work as intended.
Strictly necessary technologies may be required for security, routing and core functionality and may therefore operate without optional consent where legally permitted.
Cookie and identifier lifetimes vary by purpose and provider. Session technologies usually expire when the browser session ends, while persistent technologies remain for a defined period or until deleted, reset or replaced.
MDS aims to avoid retaining identifiers longer than reasonably necessary for the stated purpose and to use privacy-conscious configurations where practical.
This policy may be updated when technologies, providers, consent practices or legal requirements change. The revision date shown on this page indicates the current published version.
