Cookies Policy

Introduction

Cookies are small text files that can be stored on your computer, mobile phone or tablet when you visit a website or webpage. Their purpose is to store your settings or activity on the website so that, on future visits, this information can be retrieved and not saved again each time.

Although the majority of browsers, such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari and Opera, support the use of cookies, the user can configure their browser not to accept cookies from the start or to delete them afterwards.

Types and usefulness of Cookies

Cookies can perform many functions. The most common cookies found on most websites fall into two categories:

  1. Website-session cookies, which are stored temporarily on your computer and originate from the page you are visiting. Cookies in this category are only applicable to the website you are visiting and are deleted when you leave it. A typical example of this category are the cookies used by e-shops, which store information about the user's purchase choices: the products they have chosen to purchase are stored in the shopping cart and are not lost as the user visits the various pages of the e-shop, until they complete their purchases.
  2. Permanent cookies, which are stored on your computer and persist after the end of your session on the relevant website. These cookies mainly offer personalized services that meet the individual needs of each user, mainly through the storage of information they collect about them. Such information includes the user's preferences regarding the appearance of the website, preferred language, login details, personal data, if they allow their storage, etc. Permanent cookies, despite their name, have a lifespan and are automatically deleted once it expires.


In addition to the cookies of the website you are visiting, there are also so-called third-party cookies, which belong to the above categories, but are implemented on the website by third parties. Third-party cookies are generally harmless, but they collect information about visitors to the website (traffic measurement, recording of the number of visitors, geographical origin, operating system data, etc.) and are used mainly for advertising and promotional purposes.
