4. Consent and withdrawal
Optional categories are not enabled before the user makes a choice. You can accept all categories, reject all optional categories or save an individual selection. Rejection does not limit access to the platform's core features.
Consent can be withdrawn or changed at any time using the Cookie settings button in the footer. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the preferences were changed.
