USING COOKIES

Below you will find more details regarding the types and ownership of our website’s cookies:

Please read carefully the following information:

In order to comply with the requirements established in GDPR and the provisions of Law no. 506 of 17 November 2004 on the personal data processing and the privacy protection in the electronic communications sector, all website’s visitors are required to consent to the cookies transmission on their computers.

This website uses its own cookies and those from the third parties in order  to provide visitors with a much better browsing experience and services to cover the needs and interests of everyone.

Cookies play an important role in facilitating the 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, accessing your old preferences by accessing the “forward” and “backward” buttons.
•  Cookies provide site owners with valuable feedback on how their sites are used by users so they can make them even more effective 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 navigation experience.

What is a “cookie”?

A “Cookie Internet” (also known as “cookie browser” or “HTTP cookie” or simply “cookie”) is a small file of letters and numbers that will be stored on your computer, mobile terminal or other equipment of a user on which the Internet is accessed.

The cookie is installed through a request sent by the webserver of a browser (eg Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is completely “passive” (it does not contain software, viruses or spyware and can not access the information on the hard drive user).

A cookie consists of two parts: the name and the content or the value of the cookie. Furthermore, the duration of a cookie is determined; technically, only the webserver that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the site associated with the respective webserver.

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

There are two large categories of cookies:

1. Session cookies – they are temporarily stored in the web browser’s cookie folder so they can save them until the user exits the site or closes the browser window (for example, when logging in / logging on a webmail or social networking account).
2. Persistent cookies – these are stored on the hard drive of a computer or device (and generally depends on the cookie’s default life). Persistent cookies include those placed by a site other than the one the user is currently visiting – known as ‘third party cookies’ – which can be used anonymously to store a user’s interests so as to deliver advertising as relevant to users.

What are the cookies benefits?

A cookie contains information linking a web browser (user) and a specific web-server (Site). If a browser accesses that web-server again, it can read the already stored information and react. Cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support the efforts of many sites to provide user-friendly services: ex – online privacy preferences, site language options, shopping carts, or relevant advertising.

 What is the lifetime of a cookie?

Cookies are managed by web servers. The life of a cookie may vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are used only for one session (session cookies) and are not retained once the user has left the site, and some cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to that site (permanent cookies). However, cookies can be deleted by a user at any time through the browser settings.

What are cookies placed by the third parties?

Certain sections of content on some sites may be provided by the  third parties / suppliers (eg news box, video or advertisement). These third parties may also place cookies through the site and they are called “third party cookies” because they are not placed by the owner of the site. Third-party vendors must also comply with the applicable law and the site’s privacy policies.

How cookies are used by a site.

A site visit may place cookies for:

• increasing site performance;
• a visitor analysis;
• geotargetting;
• registering users.

Performance cookies

This type of cookie retains the user’s preferences on this site, so they no longer need to be set on every site visit.

Examples: Volume settings for video player, streaming video speed  which the browser is compatible with.

Visitor Analysis cookies

Every time a user visits a site, analytics software provided by a third party generates a user analysis cookie. This cookie tells you if you have visited this site so far. The browser will flag you if you have this cookie, and if not, one will be generated. It allows monitoring of unique users who visit the site and how often they do it.

As long as the visitor is not registered on the site, this cookie can not be used to identify individuals, they are used for statistical purposes only. If it’s registered, you may also know the details provided, such as your email address and username – which are subject to confidentiality, in accordance with the GDPR provisions.

Geotargetting cookies

These cookies are used by software that determines where you come from. It is completely anonymous and is only used to target content – even when the visitor is on the page in Romanian or in another language, it will receive the same advertisement.

Registration cookies

When you sign up for a site, a cookie is generated that tells you if you are registered or not. Servers use these cookies to show your account and if you have permission for a specific service. It is also allowed to associate any comments posted on your site with your username. If you have not selected “keep me registered”, this cookie will automatically delete when you close your browser or computer.

Other cookies of the third parties

On some pages, third parties can set their own anonymous cookies in order to track the success of an application or customize an application.

For example, when you share an article using the social network button on a site, that social network will record your activity.

What type of information is stored and accessed through cookies?

Cookies keep information in a small text file that allows a site to recognize a browser. The Webserver will recognize the browser until the cookie expires or is deleted.

The cookie stores important information that enhances the Internet browsing experience (eg, setting the language of a site, keeping a user logged in to your webmail account, online banking security, keeping your products in the shopping cart).

Why are cookies important for the internet?

Cookies are the central focus of the efficient Internet, helping to generate a friendly browsing experience and adapting to the preferences and interests of each user. Denying or disabling cookies can make some sites impossible to use.

Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require authentication of a user through an account):

• Content and services tailored to the user preferences – news, weather, sports, maps, public and government services, entertainment sites and travel services.
• Offers tailored to user interests – retaining passwords, language preferences (e.g., displaying search results in English).
• Retrieve Child Protection Filters on Internet content (family mode options, safe search functions).
• Measurement, optimization, and analytics features – such as confirming a certain level of traffic on a site, what type of content is viewed, and how a user reaches a site (eg, search engines, directly from other sites). Sites run these analyzes of their use to improve sites for the users’benefit.

Security and privacy issues

Cookies are NOT Viruses! They use plain text types. They are not made up of pieces of code, so they can not be executed or executed. Consequently, they cannot duplicate or replicate on other networks to run or replicate again. Because they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses.

Cookies can still 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 consistently mark cookies to be deleted in anti-virus / anti-spyware removal / scanning procedures.

In general, browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, available period, and automatic deletion after the user has visited a particular site.

Tips for safe and responsible, cookie-based navigation.

• Customize your browser settings for cookies to reflect a comfortable level for your cookie security.
• If you share access to your computer, you can consider setting the browser to delete individual browsing data each time you close your browser. This is a way to access sites that place cookies and delete any business information when you close the browsing session.
• Install and constantly update your antispyware applications.
• Many of the spyware detection and prevention applications include site attacks detection. This prevents your browser from accessing sites that could exploit browser vulnerabilities or download dangerous software.

How do I stop cookies?

Disabling and refusing to receive cookies can make some sites unfeasible or difficult to visit and use.

It is possible to set up the browser so that these cookies are no longer supported or you can set the browser to accept cookies from a particular site. But for example, if a visitor is not registered using cookies, he will not be able to leave comments.
