Cookie Policy

What are cookies?

Cookies are small files stored on a user’s computer or device. They contain a limited amount of site-specific data and can be accessed either by the web server or the user’s browser. Their purpose is to personalize the website experience—for example, to save information from one visit to another or help the server deliver pages tailored to each user.

Are cookies enabled in my browser?

You can check if your browser allows cookies using a cookie checker tool. For information on how to enable or disable cookies, refer to your browser’s guide. Most browsers also allow you to view and delete cookies stored on your device. Note that websites cannot access cookies set by other sites, for privacy and security reasons.

What does a cookie contain?

Each cookie acts like a small data table, containing key-value pairs—for example: (first name, John). These data can be read by the server or site code and used to customize the user experience.

When are cookies created?

Cookies are created when a web page loads or during specific interactions, such as submitting a form or clicking a “Submit” button. If a user chooses to disable cookies, the data will not be saved, and sites that rely on them may require re-entering information.

Why are cookies used?

Cookies allow information to be transferred between sessions or pages without overloading servers with large amounts of data. They help identify users and personalize their experience—for example, by saving font preferences, page layout, or login details so they don’t need to be re-entered on every visit.

How long do cookies last?

The lifespan of a cookie can be set when it is created. By default, cookies are deleted when the browser is closed, but they can be configured to persist for a longer period.

Who can access cookies?

A cookie’s visibility is defined by the domain in which it was created. Cookies are accessible only to pages from the same domain or specified subdomains. External sites cannot access these cookies, ensuring user privacy.

How secure are cookies?

Cookies themselves are not harmful and cannot infect devices with viruses. They only store information provided by the user or already known to the web server. Even when some cookies are shared with third parties, it is similar to storing information in a secure database.

What are tracking cookies?

Some websites include ads or promotional material provided by third parties. These can store cookies that collect information about visited sites or viewed products. Later, when the user visits other websites with similar ads from the same third party, the cookie can be used to determine the user’s browsing history and display personalized ads.
