COOKIES POLICY

Cookies are short text files created by a web server and stored on a computer through a browser. If you return to the same website, the browser sends the stored file back, and the server then retrieves all the information it previously stored about you.

How and why are cookies used?

Cookies are essential for functional web analytics. Visitor statistics and other measurement systems work on the principle of cookies, storing visitor identifiers, sources of visit, time, etc., in a cookie. The collected data is then accessed and supplemented on subsequent pages, allowing the system to ”track” the user.

These small text files are also used to store the state of being logged in on a given page (to website administration, e-commerce, social networks, etc.). This type of cookie is called an authentication cookie. Without it, the server wouldn't recognize that a user's verification and login to a particular website has already occurred and would request it again for every subsequent page visit.

What are the types of cookies?

First-party cookie - A small text cookie is stored using a script running on a given domain. Such cookies are generally considered safer. They pass through firewalls better and adhere to stricter browser security rules. This type of cookie is used, for example, by Google Analytics (in its default setting).

Third-party cookie - A cookie is stored using a script pulled from a different domain. Therefore, the same cookie can be accessed in various places on the internet, allowing a user to be tracked across different domains. Why ”cookie”? As you've likely guessed, ”cookie” means biscuit in English. The name is derived from the Anglo-Saxon custom of offering a biscuit to visitors to create a homely and pleasant atmosphere.

What types of cookies do we use?
