Cookie Policy

This website uses its own and third-party cookies to provide visitors with a much better browsing experience and services tailored to each person’s needs and interests.

Cookies play an important role in facilitating access and delivery of multiple services that the user benefits from using the Internet, such as:

  • Customizing certain settings such as: the language in which a site is viewed, accessing old preferences by accessing the “forward” and “back” buttons.
  • Cookies provide website owners with information on how their sites are used by users, so that they can make them more efficient and more accessible to users.
  • They allow multimedia or other applications from other sites to be included in a particular site to create a more valuable, useful and enjoyable browsing experience.

What is a “cookie”?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer, mobile device or other equipment from which the Internet is accessed.

The cookie is completely “passive” (it does not contain software, viruses or spyware and cannot access information on the user’s information storage units).

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

Main categories of cookies

There are 2 large categories of cookies:

Session cookies – these are temporarily stored in the cookies folder of the web browser so that it remembers them until the user leaves the respective website or closes the browser window;

Persistent cookies – these are stored in the memory of a computer or equipment (generally, it depends on the preset lifespan for the cookie). Persistent cookies also include those placed by a website other than the one the user is currently visiting – they are known as ‘third party cookies’ – which can be used anonymously to remember a user’s interests.

What are the advantages of cookies?

A cookie contains information that connects a web browser (the user) to a specific web server (the website). If a user accesses that website 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 convenient services (e.g. online privacy preferences, site language options, etc.).

What is the lifespan of a cookie?

Cookies are managed by web servers. The lifespan 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 and some cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to that website (“persistent cookies”). Cookies can be deleted by a user at any time through the browser settings.

What are cookies placed by third parties

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

How cookies are used by this site

A visit to this site may place cookies for the following purposes:

  • Site performance cookies;
  • Visitor analysis cookies;
  • Geotargeting cookies;
  • Registration cookies;

Performance cookies

This type of cookie remembers the user’s preferences on this site, so that there is no need to set them each time you visit the site.

Examples:

  • video player volume settings;
  • the video streaming speed that the browser is compatible with.

Visitor analysis cookies

Every time a user visits this site, the analytics software provided by a third party generates a user analysis cookie. This cookie tells us whether you have visited this site before. The browser will tell you if you have this cookie, and if not, one will be generated. This allows us to track which unique users visit our website and how often they do so. As long as you are not registered on this website, this cookie cannot be used to identify individuals, it is only used for statistical purposes

Geotargeting cookies

These cookies are used by software that determines which country the user comes from. It is completely anonymous and is only used to target content – ​​even when you are on the Romanian or another language website page.

Registration cookies

When you register on this site, we generate a cookie that tells us whether you are registered or not. Our servers use these cookies to show us the account you are registered with and whether you have permission for a particular service. If you have not

selected “keep me registered”, this cookie will be automatically deleted when you close your browser or computer.

Other third-party cookies

On some pages, third parties may set their own anonymous cookies, in order to track the success of an application or to customize an application. Due to the way it is used, this site cannot access these cookies, just as third parties cannot access cookies held by this site. For example, when you share an article using the social media button on this site, that social network will record your activity.

Why are cookies important for the Internet

Cookies are central to the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to generate a friendly browsing experience adapted to the preferences and interests of each user. Refusing or disabling cookies may make some sites impossible to use.

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

  • Content and services adapted to user preferences – public and government services, etc.
  • Offers adapted to user interests – password retention, language preferences (e.g. displaying search results in Romanian).
  • Retention of child protection filters regarding Internet content (family mode options, safe search functions).
  • Measurement, optimization and analytics features – such as confirming a certain level of traffic on a website, what type of content is viewed and how a user arrives at a website (e.g. via search engines, directly, from other websites, etc.). Websites perform these analyses of their use to improve the sites for the benefit of users.

Security and privacy issues

Cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of pieces of code so they cannot be executed or self-run. Consequently, they cannot duplicate or replicate on other networks to run again. Since they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses. Cookies can still be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about users’ preferences and browsing history, both on a specific site and on multiple other sites, cookies can be used as a form of Spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this fact and constantly mark cookies for deletion as part of their antivirus/anti-spyware removal/scanning procedures.

Generally, browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance: validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a specific site. Since identity protection is very valuable and represents the right of every Internet user, it is advisable to know what potential problems cookies can create. Because through them, information is constantly transmitted, in both directions, between the browser and the website, if an attacker or an unauthorized person intervenes in the data transmission process, 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 (e.g. an unsecured Wi-Fi network).

Other cookie-based attacks involve misconfiguring cookies 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 over unsecured channels. The attackers then use the information to gain unauthorized access to certain sites. It is very important to be careful in choosing the most appropriate method of protecting your personal information.

Tips for safe and responsible browsing based on cookies

Due to their flexibility and the fact that most of the most visited and largest sites use cookies, they are almost inevitable. Disabling cookies will not allow the user to access the most widespread and used sites, including: Youtube, Gmail, Yahoo and others.

Here are some tips that can ensure that you browse without worries, with the help of cookies:

  • Customize your browser settings regarding cookies, to reflect a comfortable level of security for you in the use of cookies.
  • If you do not mind cookies and are the only person using the computer, you can set long expiration dates for storing browsing history and personal access data.
  • If you share access to the computer, you can consider setting your browser to delete individual browsing data every time you close the browser. This is an option to access the sites that place cookies and delete any visit information when you close the browsing session.
  • Install and constantly update antispyware applications.

Many spyware detection and prevention applications include detection of attacks on websites.

This prevents the browser from accessing websites that could exploit vulnerabilities or download dangerous software. Make sure your browser is always up to date. Many of the attacks based on cookies are carried out by exploiting the weaknesses of old browser versions.

Cookies are everywhere and cannot be avoided if you want to enjoy access to the best and biggest 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 that you can browse the Internet with confidence.

How to stop cookies

Disabling and refusing to receive cookies can make certain sites impractical or difficult to visit and use. Also, refusing to accept cookies does not mean that you will no longer receive/see online content.

It is possible to set your browser to no longer accept these cookies or to set your browser to accept cookies from a specific site.

All modern browsers offer the ability to change your cookie settings. These settings are usually found in the browser’s “options” or “preferences” menu.

To understand these settings, the following links may be useful, otherwise you can use the browser’s “help” option for more details.
