2. What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies and similar technologies are relatively small files containing essential information stored on your devices – these files allow us to record information and data when you interact with websites, services, applications, messaging or tools made available by our company. Although these technologies are generally referred to as Cookies, each one works differently, and the full process is better explained on specialized websites.

3. Use of cookies

Any cookies used by this website run individually or on a session basis to maintain community user preferences or to analyze website traffic or other purposes.

By continuing to use and browse our websites, applications, services, tools and messaging provided by our company, you consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies for optimal performance.

This option is to support user activity and to avoid filling in data every time you leave new comments. The duration of cookies is usually 1 year. If you visit the login page, we will set temporary cookies to determine whether your browser accepts these technologies or not. These cookies do not contain personal data and are deleted when you close the browser.

When you log in, we also set cookies to save your login information and display preferences. Your login information will last for up to two days, and your display preferences for 1 year.

4. What cookies do we use?

We use session and persistent cookies on our websites. We may also use first-party, third-party, flash or zombie cookies.

Session cookies: Session cookies, also known as “temporary cookies,” help websites recognize users and the information they provide when they browse a site. Session cookies retain information about a user’s activities only for the duration of their visit to the site. Once the web browser is closed, the cookies are deleted. They are commonly used on shopping sites or e-commerce sites.

Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies, also known as "persistent cookies", remain in effect even after the web browser is closed. For example, they can remember login details and passwords so that web users do not have to re-enter them every time they use a site. The law states: permanent cookies must be deleted after 12 months.

First-party cookies: First-party cookies are installed directly by the website (i.e. domain) that the user is visiting (i.e. the URL displayed in the browser's address bar). These cookies allow website owners to collect analytics data, remember language settings, and perform other useful functions that provide a good user experience.

Third-party cookies: Third-party cookies are installed by third parties with the purpose of collecting certain information from web users to conduct research on behavior, demographics or spending habits, for example. They are commonly used by advertisers who want to ensure that their products and services are promoted to the right target audience.

Flash Cookies: Flash cookies, also known as “super cookies,” are independent of the web browser. They are designed to be stored permanently on a user’s computer. These types of cookies remain on a user’s device even after all cookies have been deleted from their web browser.

Zombie Cookies: Zombie cookies are a type of Flash cookie that is automatically recreated after a user deletes them. This means they are difficult to detect or manage. They are often used in online games to prevent users from using cheating applications.

6. Do cookies or similar technologies contain personal data?

Cookies or similar technologies themselves do not require personal information to be used and, in many cases, do not personally identify Internet users. However, there are situations where personal data may be collected through the use of cookies to facilitate certain functionalities for the user or to provide the user with an experience more tailored to his or her preferences. Such data is encrypted in a way that makes it impossible for unauthorized persons to access it.

What are similar technologies? There are other technologies that can be used for the same purposes as cookies. We can use Local Storage as a similar technology.

7. Block cookies

If you choose to block cookies, some of the site's features will be disabled, and this may cause some malfunctions or errors in using our site. For example, blocking cookies may prevent you from logging into your account. Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default, but you can change your settings to block some or all cookies.

8. Managing cookie preferences

In general, an application used to access web pages allows the storage of cookies and/or similar technologies on the terminal by default. These settings can usually be changed in such a way that the automatic management of cookies is blocked by the web browser or the user is informed each time cookies are sent to his terminal. Detailed information about the possibilities and ways of managing cookies can be found in the settings area of the application (web browser). Limiting the use of cookies may affect certain functionalities of the website.

We strive to allow users to manage their cookie preferences and the transmission of personal data to third-party processors in accordance with their own decisions. Therefore, you can set your cookie preferences in the footer of the website in the "Cookie Preferences" section.
