Cookie notice



1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that the website stores on the computer or mobile device of the user who visits their pages, ie where the website is used.

We distinguish between so-called internal cookies, which are used by the website you visit. The information collected by internal cookies can only be processed and used by the given website. A website may also use external services that also use their own cookies. These are called third-party cookies (external cookies).

According to another grouping, ie according to their function, cookies can be divided into four (4) categories:

1. Essential session cookies: Without these cookies, the website would simply not function functionally e.g. needed to manage whether you entered, what you put in the cart, and so on. This is typically the storage of a session ID, the rest of the data is stored on the server, making it more secure. It has security implications, if the session cookie value is not generated well, there may be a risk of a session-hijacking attack, so it is imperative that these values ​​are generated properly. Other terminology calls a session cookie any cookie that is deleted when you exit the browser (a session is a browser usage from startup to exit).

2. Performance cookies: This is how cookies are called, which collect information about the user's behavior, time spent and clicks on the visited website. These are typically third party applications (e.g. Google Analytics, AdWords cookies). These are suitable for profiling a visitor.

3. Functional cookies: Cookies that remember a user's choices, such as how the user want to see the site. These cookies essentially represent the setting data stored in the cookie.

4. Analytical cookies: Cookies thank to which statistics and analytics can be performed.

Based on their period of validity, we can distinguish:

1. Temporary cookies ("Session cookie"): Cookies are limited to the user's current session.

2. Persistant cookies: The validity period of persistant cookies can be measured in days, weeks, months, years, during which time the saved cookies are stored on the hard disk of the user's computer, however, the user can delete them at any time before the expiration of the predetermined deadlines.

Please note that cookies allow the website to remember your settings for a certain period of time (eg username, language chosen, etc.), so you do not have to re-enter this information next time you visit our website.

Cookies are considered personal data according to Preamble 30 of the GDPR. But among the cookies, there are absolutely necessary cookies that help to navigate the website, remember the user's actions on each page.
