What are “cookies”?

For any modern website to work properly, it needs to collect specific basic information about its users. To do that, the site will create files known as “cookies”, which are small text files that websites send to the user’s computer or another internet-connected device. Thus, these files can identify the user's unique browser and store information or specific browser settings. These cookies are designed to allow the website to recognize users when they next visit the site or to authorize other sites to recognize these users for a specific purpose.

Cookies fulfil different tasks, such as remembering your preferences when often visiting a website, remembering your username and the content of your shopping basket, and helping you navigate between pages more effectively.

Why are we using “cookies”?

We take the utmost care to protect the privacy of the users of the website. We use cookies to monitor and improve our services, but they also allow us to organize advertising campaigns that are better targeted to your interests and the materials you read on our website. Sometimes, on our website, we include links to goods and services offered by third parties, and we might get a commission if you later decide to make a purchase.

What types of “cookies” exist, and which of them do we use?

We provide a list of the cookies we use in the second part of this answer.

We will use cookies on your device that will allow us to remember your choice. If you don’t opt out and continue using the website, these cookies will be sent to your device. You can opt out of our cookies. If you opt out of all cookies, you might not be able to have full functionality of the site.

There are two types of cookies:

1. Persistent – they remain on the user’s device for a period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated every time the user visits the website that created this specific cookie.
2. Session Cookies – they are temporary and allow website operators to connect the actions of the user during a browsing session. The browsing session begins when the user opens the browser window and finishes when the user closes the browser window. After you close the browser window, all session cookies are deleted.

Cookies generally have four different functions and can be categorized as “necessary”, “for efficiency”, “for functionality” and “marketing”.

The necessary cookies are important for website navigation and the use of its functions. Without them, you will not be able to use some services, such as registration. These cookies do not collect data about you that can be used for marketing or for identifying the location where you used the internet. For example, we use these cookies to create unique identifiers for each user so that we can analyse the site’s viewership.

The cookies for efficiency collect data for statistical purposes regarding the ways users use the website. They do not collect personal data such as names and email addresses and are used to improve your user experience with the website. For example, we use these to collect data on website visits, including the number of users and the number of visits, the duration of the session, the pages the user visited and where the users come from. We use this data to compare our website with other sites by using data collected by industry-accepted research.

The information collected by the cookies for efficiency helps us understand how you use the website. For example, are you a new user, what did you view or click on, and how did you find us? After that, we can use this data to improve our services.

The cookies for functionality allow users to personalize the way the website identifies them. These cookies can remember usernames and locations and can be used to provide more personalized services, such as relevant news. For example, we use this data to identify you as a returning user, and we will not show you information for first-time users.

The cookies for marketing are used to show you advertising that is better targeted to you but can also be used to limit the number of times an ad is shown to you. They can be used to analyse the efficiency of advertising by analysing users’ clicks. They can remember that you have visited a website, and this information can be shared with other organizations, including other advertisers. They cannot identify who you are because they are not connected with your profile.

We use these cookies to advertise based on interests (or online behavioural advertising). The cookies are installed on your device by third-party service providers and will remember your activity in the web browser and group your interests to provide advertising related to them.

Without these cookies, the online advertising you see will be less connected with you and your interests.
