Please read the following information carefully:

This website may use both its own cookies and third-party cookies to provide visitors with an enhanced browsing experience and services tailored to their needs and interests.

In what we refer to as “Web 2.0,” cookies play an important role in facilitating access to and delivery of the many services available on the internet, such as:

Personalizing settings: e.g., the language in which the site is viewed, the currency in which prices or rates are displayed, and storing options for various products (sizes, other details, etc.) in the shopping cart (and remembering these preferences), thereby enabling the flexibility of the “shopping cart” (retrieving previous preferences using the “forward” and “back” buttons);
Providing feedback: Cookies give website owners valuable insights into how their sites are used, so they can improve functionality and accessibility;
Integrating multimedia content: They allow multimedia applications or other content from external websites to be embedded, creating a richer and more enjoyable browsing experience;
Enhancing online advertising: Cookies help deliver more relevant ads to users.

What is a cookie?

An “Internet Cookie” (also known as a “browser cookie” or “HTTP cookie,” or simply “cookie”) is a small text file composed of letters and numbers that is stored on your computer, mobile device, or other equipment when you visit a website. The cookie is installed through a request from a web server to your browser (e.g., Microsoft Edge, Chrome, etc.) and is completely “passive” (it does not contain executable software, viruses, or spyware, and it cannot access information on your hard drive). A cookie consists of two parts: its name and its content (value). The lifespan of a cookie is determined by the web server that issued it; essentially, only that server can access it again when you return to the website. Cookies do not request personal information and, in most cases, do not personally identify internet users.

Main categories of cookies

Session cookies: These are stored temporarily in your browser’s cookie folder and are retained until you leave the website or close your browser window.
Persistent cookies: These are stored on your device’s hard drive for a predetermined period. They also include third-party cookies, which are used anonymously to remember your interests and display relevant advertising.

Benefits of cookies

Cookies facilitate the connection between your browser and the website’s server. When you return to the website, the stored information can be read and used to customize your experience. Thus, cookies contribute to:

A pleasant and personalized browsing experience;
Storing preferences related to privacy, website language, shopping carts, and relevant advertising.

Cookie lifespan

Cookies are managed by web servers, and their lifespan varies depending on their purpose:

Session cookies: Used only for one session and deleted when the browser is closed.
Persistent cookies: Remain active and are reused on subsequent visits. They can be deleted at any time through your browser settings.

Third-party cookies

Some sections of content (e.g., news boxes, videos, advertisements) may be provided by third parties, which can place their own cookies on the site. These are known as “third party cookies” and must comply with applicable laws and the privacy policies of the website owner.

The importance of cookies for the internet

Cookies are essential for the efficient functioning of the internet, helping to:

Provide a personalized and user-friendly browsing experience;
Retain privacy settings and user preferences;
Display advertising tailored to user interests;
Measure website traffic and optimize site functionalities.

Refusing or disabling cookies may make certain websites harder to use. However, it does not mean you will no longer receive online advertising; it only means that the ads will not be tailored to your preferences.

Security and privacy concerns

Cookies are NOT viruses! They are plain text files without executable code and cannot self-run or replicate across networks.
However, cookies can be used to collect information about your browsing preferences and history, which, if misused by third parties, can pose privacy concerns.
It is important to protect the information transmitted via cookies and to be cautious when connecting to unsecured networks (e.g., public WiFi).
