  1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small digital text files sent from the website’s server to the browser of the user, where they are stored when the user visits the website. Cookies are intended to send information to the server each time the user performs specific actions on the website (e.g., selecting another page of the website, selecting a specific product on a webpage, etc.). Cookies act as the user’s identity on the website each time the user browses it. The way the user’s identification is implemented by the server is simple. The browser used by the user, and if the user has visited the website, sends the Cookie to the website’s web server. This way, statistical or commercial promotion data for each user’s action during their browsing is collected, thus achieving personalized user information. The information sent to the server covers a wide range of information, such as personal identification information (name, address, email, IP address, or phone number). However, this information can only be stored if approved by the respective user, except for the information stored by Necessary or Basic Cookies, which are necessary for security reasons and uninterrupted browsing of the user on the website. This information remains stored for a period of time corresponding to the duration of the Cookie’s operation in the user’s browser (persistent or non-persistent (session) Cookies) unless the user deletes them from their browser.
