Cookie policy

What are Cookies?

HTTP cookies, also known simply as cookies, are small text files that websites send to your web browser. On your next visit, the browser returns this information to the server to recognize your device and ensure a better user experience.
The technology was created by Lou Montulli (Netscape Communications), and today almost every modern website uses cookies.


What are cookies used for?

Cookies can contain different types of information and serve several main purposes:

  • User authentication – remember your login so you don’t have to enter a username and password for each new session.
  • Online shopping – keep the “shopping cart” active while you browse products.
  • Personalization – display content based on your interests and preferences.
  • Analytics and statistics – track visits and user behavior (for example, watching a video).
  • Cookie consent – store your choice of whether you accept or reject cookies.

How long are cookies stored?

  • Session cookies – automatically deleted when the browser is closed.
  • Persistent cookies – remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually.

Every user can delete or block cookies at any time via their browser settings.


Do cookies identify users?

Cookies do not contain personal data such as name or email address. They identify the combination of computer and browser.
If you use multiple browsers or devices, each will have its own set of cookies.


How to control cookies?

If you do not want to use cookies, you can:

  • block them entirely,
  • allow only certain cookies,
  • delete them automatically after each session.

This can be done through your browser settings. Keep in mind that blocking cookies may limit the functionality of some websites.


European legislation and cookies

Since May 25, 2011, the European Union requires all websites operating within its territory to inform users about the use of cookies and obtain their consent.
The most common method is displaying a cookie banner or message that allows the user to accept or reject them.


How to manage cookies in different browsers?

  • Google Chrome → Settings > Privacy > Cookies
  • Mozilla Firefox → Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies
  • Microsoft Edge → Settings > Cookies and site permissions
  • Opera → Settings > Advanced > Cookies
  • Safari → Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data

Conclusion

Cookies are an important part of the modern internet. They improve user experience, personalization, and security. You always have the option to control or disable cookies to protect your online privacy and personal data.
