The site uses its own and third-party cookies for a much better browsing experience and services adapted to the needs and interest of each visitor of the Site.
The function of cookies is to:
Cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of pieces of code so they cannot be executed or run on their own. As a result, they cannot be duplicated or replicated on other networks in order to run or replicate again. Because they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses. However, cookies may be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about users’ preferences and browsing history, cookies can be used as a form of spyware.
The “cookie” term refers to technologies through which certain information is collected automatically. An “Internet Cookie” (also known as “browser cookie” or “HTTP cookie” or simply “cookie”) is a small file of letters and numbers, which will be stored on the computer, mobile terminal or other equipment of a user where from the Internet is accessed.
The cookie is installed at the request of a web server to a browser (ex: Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is completely “passive” (does not contain software, viruses or spyware and cannot access the information on the hard drive of the user who installed it).
A cookie consists of 2 parts:
Moreover, the lifetime of a cookie is limited from the time of installation. Technically, only the webserver that sent the cookie can access it again when a visitor returns to the website associated with that webserver.
Cookies themselves do not require personal information to be used and do not personally identify internet users, in most of cases.
Cookies are the the central point of the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to build a friendly browsing experience and adapted to the preferences and interests of each user.
Declining or disabling cookies can do some sites impossible to use. Refusing or disabling cookies does not mean that visitors will not receive online advertising – it’s just that it will no longer be able to take into account their preferences and interests, pointed out by the navigation behavior.
Because of their flexibility and the fact that most of the largest and most visited sites use cookies, these are almost inevitable. Disabling cookies will not allow visitor access to the most common and used sites, like Youtube, Gmail, Yahoo and other.
Session cookies
These are temporary stored in the cookies folder of the web browser to store them until the visitor logs out of that web site or closes the browser window.
Persistent cookies
They are stored on the hard drive of a computer or device (generally depend on the default cookie lifetime). Persistent cookies also include those placed by a website other than the one that the visitor is accessing at that time – known as ‘third party cookies’ (cookies placed by third parties) – which can be used anonymously to store a user’s interests, so that the most relevant advertising for visitors is delivered.
A cookie contains information that links a web browser (user / visitor) to a specific web server (the Site).
If a browser accesses that web server again, it can read already stored information and react accordingly.
Cookies guarantee a pleasant browsing experience for visitors and support the efforts of many websites to provide comfortable and user-friendly services: ex – online privacy preferences or relevant advertising.
Cookies are managed by web servers. A cookie’s life is limited and can be significantly variable, depending on the intended purpose.
Some cookies are used exclusively for a single session (session cookies) and them are no longer retained once the user has left the website and some cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to that website until the expiration date – which can be for a few minutes, hours, days or even years (permanent cookies).
However, cookies can be deleted by the user at any time through the browser settings.
Certain sections of content on some sites may be provided through third parties/suppliers (ex: news box, a video or commercial). These third parties may also place cookies on the Site and they are called “third party cookies”, because they are not placed by the respective website owner. Third party Suppliers must also comply with the legislation in force and the privacy policies of the site owner.
A visit to the Site may place cookies in order to:
This type of cookie remembers the user’s preferences, so there is no need to set them each time you visit.
Each time a user visits the Website, analytics software provided by a third party (in this case Google Analytics and the WordPress Platform) generates a cookie for user analysis and statistics. This cookie offers information to the Company, if a user has visited the Site before and helps to optimize the interaction with the visitor. The browser will inform if this cookie is installed, and otherwise, a cookie will be generated. It allows monitoring of unique users who visit the Site and the frequency of visits.
As long as a visitor is not registered on this Site with a user account (option not offered by the Site), this cookie cannot be used to identify individuals, being used only for statistical purposes.
Users can disable or delete individual cookies. For more details it can be accessed https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies.
These cookies are used by a software that determines the visitor’s country origin (in this case, the use of Google Analytics) by collecting IP addresses. The cookie is used to ensure the security of the Site, but also for optimizing interaction with users, being anonymously used (the collected IP addresses can also be hidden) in order to target the content.
These cookies allow the Company to find out whether or not a visitor has viewed an online advertisement, what type it is and how long has passed since he saw the commercial. These cookies are also used to target online advertising, keeping information about the content viewed and not about visitors.
Some of the advertising on the Site may belong to third parties. Some of these parties use their own anonymous cookies to analyze how many people have been exposed to a message, or to see how many people were exposed to the same ad more than once.
So, the Company may use cookies belonging to a third party as well, for better advertising/information targeting. These are anonymous cookies, they store information about the viewed content, not about users. Cookies are set anonymously through other sites that the Company advertises as well. By receiving them in this way, the Company can use them to recognize a person as a visitor to that site and if this person will visit the Site later, advertising based on this information may be provided.
The companies that generate these cookies have their own privacy policies and the Site has no access to read or write these cookies. Those third-party cookies may be used to show visitors targeted advertising on other sites, based on the visitor’s navigation on the Site. These cookies can also come from third parties such as: Google, Facebook, etc.
Cookies keep information in a small text file which allow a website to recognize a browser. The webserver will recognize the browser until the cookie expires or is deleted.
The cookie stores important information that improves the Internet browsing experience, depending on the type of cookie installed on the Site, but also those that identify errors of use.
Cookies are everywhere and cannot be avoided if the visitor wants to enjoy access to the best and greatest sites on the Internet – local or international.
With a clear understanding of their operation and the benefits they bring, visitors can take the necessary security measures so that they can browse the internet with confidence. So, they can customize at any time their browser settings regarding cookies, to reflect a comfortable level about data security and the use of cookies. If the visitor is not bothered by cookies and he is the only person using the computer, he can set long deadlines for storing browsing history and personal access data. If the visitor shares access to the computer, the browser can be set to clear individual browsing data each time the user closes the browser. This is a way to access sites that place cookies and delete any visiting information at the end of the browsing session.
Many of the spyware detection and prevention applications include detecting attacks on websites. So, it prevents the browser from accessing sites that could exploit browser vulnerabilities or download malicious software. As a result, visitors need to make sure they have their browser up to date. Many of the attacks based on cookies are made by exploiting the weaknesses of older versions of browsers.
Disabling and refusing to receive some cookies can make some sites unusable, partially usable or hard to visit and use, like the case with the Site. Also refusing to accept cookies does not mean that visitors will no longer receive/see online advertising.
It is possible to set the browser to stop accepting these cookies or the browser can be set to accept only certain categories of cookies for which the user’s consent is required (it does not apply to the category of cookies required for the operation of the Site). All modern browsers offer the ability to change cookie settings.
This way, the visitor can change at any time his choices regarding the cookies for which his consent is required, by unchecking corresponding box. These settings can be found in the permanently available pop-up from the bottom of the page, where from can be choose between „Choosing all cookies” and „Manually change cookie settings” – Choose the cookie according to your preferences. So, visitors can choose to consent regarding the use of one, several or all cookies that do not fit into the category of those indispensable for the use of the Site or the transmission of communications, as well as to change at any time the decision taken in this regard, without affecting in any way the possibility of navigating the Site.
