Cookies Policy
What are Cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data that websites store on your device (computer, mobile phone, or tablet) when you visit them. They contain information such as login details, preferences, and session IDs. When you return to a website, the cookies help restore your previous interactions with it.
Why are Cookies Used?
Websites use cookies for various purposes:
Types of Cookies
There are several types of cookies:
Essential Cookies
These cookies are required for basic website functionality. They include login sessions, CSRF tokens (to prevent attacks), and CAPTCHA verification.
Session Cookies
Session cookies expire when you close your browser or the session ends. These cookies store information temporarily while you're interacting with a website.
Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies remain on your device even after you close your browser or the session ends. They can be used for things like remembering your login credentials, language preferences, and cookie consent settings.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies help websites remember specific data that you have provided, such as saved forms, wishlists, or customized dashboard layouts.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies gather anonymous information about how users interact with the website. This helps us identify areas for improvement in terms of user experience, interface navigation, speed, security, and other aspects. We use tools like Google Analytics to help measure these metrics.
Preference and Language Settings
We respect your language settings by using cookies to remember them between visits. You can adjust the site's appearance according to your country-specific needs or font size requirements thanks to stored cookie preferences.
Login/Session Continuity
Cookies ensure seamless login experiences, eliminating the need for repeated credentials. Session IDs are saved in a way that makes it easy to switch tabs, close windows, and still resume where you left off with minimized effort.
Device Recognition
Modern sites now rely on device recognition rather than individual cookie storage, reducing reliance on local cookies but keeping personalized functionality intact (language settings, login state) by allowing browsers or devices themselves handle the authentication process.
Security-Related Cookies
Some websites implement security-related features such as anti-forgery tokens to mitigate session hijacking attacks through a temporary non-persistent token placed in memory for a short window that does not allow cookies-based thefts of user data.
