Please read the following information carefully:

This website uses its own cookies, as well as third party cookies, to provide visitors with a much better browsing experience and services tailored to everyone’s needs and interests.

In what we call “web 2.0”, “cookies” play an important role in facilitating access and delivery of multiple services that the user enjoys on the Internet, such as:

Customize certain settings such as: the language in which a site is viewed, the currency in which certain prices or rates are expressed, keeping options for various products (measurements, other details, etc.) in the shopping cart (and storing these options), thus generating “shopping cart” flexibility (access the previous preferences by accessing the “forward” and “back” buttons)
Cookies provide site owners with valuable feedback on how users use their sites so that they can make them more efficient and accessible to users.
Allow multimedia applications or other applications from other sites to be included in a particular site to create a more valuable, useful and enjoyable browsing experience;
Improve the efficiency of online advertising.
What is a “cookie”?

An “Internet cookie” (also known as a “browser cookie” or “HTTP cookie” or simply a “cookie”) is a small file, consisting of letters and numbers, that will be stored on your computer, mobile terminal, or other computer of a user from which you access the Internet. The cookie is installed through the request issued by a web server to a browser (for example, Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is completely “passive” (does not contain software, viruses or spyware and cannot access the information on the hard drive) on user) A cookie consists of 2 parts: the name and content or value of the cookie. In addition, the duration of a cookie is determined; Technically, only the web server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that web server.

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

There are two main categories of cookies:

Session cookies: they are temporarily stored in the cookie folder of the web browser so that you can store them until the user leaves the respective website or closes the browser window (for example, when starting / logging out / disconnecting). in a webmail account or in social networks).
Persistent cookies: these are stored on the hard drive of a computer or equipment (and generally depend on the cookie’s default lifespan). Persistent cookies also include those placed by a website other than the one the user is currently visiting, known as ‘third-party cookies’, which can be used anonymously to memorize the interests of a user, so that advertising is delivered most relevant to that user.
What are the advantages of cookies?

A cookie contains information that links a web browser (user) to a specific web server (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 user-friendly services – for example, online privacy preferences, site language options, shopping carts, or relevant advertising.

What is the shelf life of a cookie?

Cookies are managed by web servers. The useful life 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, other cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to that website (‘cookie- permanent hatred ‘). However, the user can delete cookies at any time through the browser settings.

What are third party cookies?

Certain sections of content on some sites may be provided through third parties / providers (for example, a newsletter, a video, or an advertisement). These third parties may also place cookies through the site and are called “third party cookies” because they are not placed by the owner of the website. Third-party providers must also comply with applicable law and the privacy policies of the site owner.

Advertising provider cookies

What type of information is stored and accessed through cookies?

Cookies store information in a small text file that allows a website to recognize a browser. The web server will recognize the browser until the cookie expires or is deleted. The cookie stores important information that improves the Internet browsing experience (for example: settings for the language in which you want to access a site; keeping a user connected to the webmail account; online banking security; maintaining products in the shopping cart)

Why are Internet cookies important?

Cookies represent the central point of the efficient operation of the Internet, helping to generate a friendly browsing experience tailored to the preferences and interests of each user. Rejecting or disabling cookies may make some sites unusable. Rejecting or disabling cookies does not mean that you will no longer receive online advertising, but rather that you will no longer be able to take into account your preferences and interests, highlighted by browsing behavior.

Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require a user to authenticate through an account):
Content and services tailored to user preferences: news categories, weather, sports, maps, government and public services, entertainment sites, and travel services.
Offers tailored to the interests of users: password retention, language preferences (eg: display search results in Romanian).
Retention of child protection filters in Internet content (family mode options, secure search functions).
Limit ad serving frequency – Limit the amount of ad impressions for a particular user on a site.
Provide more relevant advertising for the user.
Measurement, optimization and analysis functions, such as confirming a certain level of traffic on a website, what type of content is viewed and how a user reaches a website (for example, through search engines, directly from other sites web) etc.). The websites carry out these analyzes of their use to improve the sites for the benefit of the users.
Security and privacy problems.

Cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of code snippets, so they cannot be run or run automatically. Consequently, they cannot be replicated or replicated on other networks to run or replicate again. Since they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses. However, cookies can be used for negative purposes. Because it stores information about user preferences and browsing history, both on a particular site and on several other sites, cookies can be used as a form of Spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this and constantly mark cookies to be removed during antivirus / anti-spyware removal / scanning procedures. In general, browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period, and automatic deletion after the user has visited a particular site.

Other security problems related to cookies

Because identity protection is very valuable and represents the right of every Internet user, it is advisable to know what possible problems cookies can create. Because through them the information is constantly transmitted in both directions between the browser and the website, if an attacker or an unauthorized person intervenes during the transmission of data, the information contained in the cookie can be intercepted. Although very rare, this can happen if the browser connects to the server using an unencrypted network (for example, an unsecured WiFi network). Other cookie-based attacks involve incorrect cookie settings on servers. If a website does not require the browser to use only encrypted channels, attackers can use this vulnerability to trick browsers into sending information through unsafe channels. Attackers then use the information to gain unauthorized access to certain sites. It is very important to be careful when choosing the most appropriate method of protection of personal information.

Tips for safe and responsible browsing, based on cookies

Due to their flexibility and the fact that most sites use cookies, they are almost inevitable. Disabling cookies can block user access to the largest and most widely used sites, including YouTube, Yahoo, and others.

Here are some tips that can ensure you browse worry-free, but with the help of cookies:

Customize your browser settings for cookies to reflect a comfortable level of security so you can use cookies.
If you don’t care about cookies and you’re the only person using the computer, you can set long expiration dates to store your browsing history and personal access data.
If you share access to your computer, you may consider setting up your browser to delete individual browsing data every time you close your browser. This is an option to access the sites that place cookies and delete any visit information at the end of the browsing session.
Constantly install and update your antispyware applications.
Many of the spyware detection and prevention applications include site attack detection. This prevents the browser from accessing websites that could exploit browser vulnerabilities or download malicious software. Make sure your browser is always up to date. Many of the cookie-based attacks are exploited by exploiting the weaknesses of previous versions of browsers.

Cookies are everywhere and cannot be avoided if you want to enjoy access to the best and largest sites on the Internet, local or international. With a clear understanding of how they operate and the benefits they bring, you can take the necessary security measures so you can surf the Internet with confidence.
