Cookie policy

We use cookies to personalize content and ads, provide social networking features, and analyze traffic. We also provide our social media, advertising and analytics partners with information about how you use our website. They may combine it with other information you provide or collect through your use of their services.

Cookies are small text files that can be used by websites to make their use more efficient. Cookies play an important role in facilitating the access and delivery of the multiple services that the user enjoys on the Internet, such as:

• Customizing certain settings such as: the language in which a site is viewed, accessing old preferences by accessing the "forward" and "back" button.

• Cookies provide site owners with valuable feedback on how their sites are used by users, so that they can make them even more efficient and accessible to users.

• Allow multimedia or other applications from other sites to be included in a particular site to create a more valuable, useful and enjoyable browsing experience.

The law states that we may store cookies on your device if they are strictly necessary for the operation of this site. For all other types of cookies we need your permission.

This website uses different types of cookies. Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages.

What is a cookie?

Cookiesare a standard feature of websites that allow us to store small amounts of data on your computer about your visit to the Site. These are used broadly to help the sites function or function better and more efficiently, such as to recognize you and retain certain information that will make your use of the site be more convenient (such as retaining your preferences). Cookie modules also help us to find out which areas of the Site are useful and which areas need improvement and to track the use of the Site to provide you with targeted advertising.

The cookie modules are downloaded by your internet browser the first time you visit the Site. The next time you visit the Site from the same device, the cookie module and the information stored in it are either sent back to the site that generated it, or to another site to which it belongs.

These third-party providers set cookies when you are connected to their pages and visit our Site. We have no influence on the cookie settings of these sites. Visit the websites of third-party providers to obtain additional information about how they use cookies.

The cookie modules allow the site to recognize if you have already accessed the Site through that browser and, in many cases, they can vary the displayed content.

Cookies themselves do not require personal information to be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify Internet users.

If you refuse the use of cookies, they will not be used.

What are the advantages of cookies?

A cookie contains information that connects a web browser (the user) and a specific web server (the website). If a browser accesses that web server again, it can read the information already stored and react accordingly. Cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support the efforts of many websites to provide comfortable services to users: eg – online privacy preferences, site language options, shopping baskets or relevant advertising.

What is the lifespan of a cookie?

Cookies are managed by web servers. The lifetime of a cookie can vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are used exclusively for a single session (session cookies) and are no longer retained once the user has left the website, and some cookies are retained and reused every time the user returns to that website (cookie- permanent hours). However, cookies can be deleted by a user at any time through the browser settings.

HOW DO I MANAGE THE COOKIE MODULES?

If you reject the use of strictly necessary cookies, this may affect the user experience and functionality while using the Site. Rejecting other cookie modules may not affect your user experience and functionality while using the Site.

If you reject the use of all cookies, first-party cookies and third-party cookies will be disabled. In addition, primary cookies will be deleted. We will not be able to delete third-party cookies.

Alternatively and/or in addition, you can change the cookie settings through your internet browser. Your internet browser allows you to modify the cookie settings. Such browser settings for cookies are usually found in the "options", "tools" or "preferences" menu of your internet browser. You can also consult the "Help" menu of the browser. Different browsers may use different mechanisms to disable cookies.

Disabling and refusing to receive cookies may make certain websites impractical or difficult to visit and use.But, for example, if a visitor is not registered using cookies, they will not be able to leave comments.

 

Security and privacy issues

Cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of pieces of code, so they cannot be executed, nor can they self-execute. Consequently, they cannot be duplicated or replicated to other networks to run or replicate again. Since they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses.

Cookies can still be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about users' preferences and browsing history, both on a particular site and across multiple sites, cookies can be used as a form of Spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this fact and constantly mark cookies for deletion during anti-virus/anti-spyware deletion/scanning procedures.

In general, browsers have integrated privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a certain site.
