What is a cookie?

An “Internet Cookie” (also known as a “browser cookie” or “HTTP cookie” or simply “cookie”) is a small file, made up of letters and numbers, that will be stored on a user’s computer, mobile terminal or other equipment from which the Internet is accessed.

The cookie is installed by a request issued by a web-server to a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Chrome) and is completely “passive” (it does not contain any software programs, viruses or spyware and cannot access the information on the user’s hard drive).

A cookie consists of 2 parts: the name and the content or value of the cookie. Furthermore, the lifetime of a cookie is determined; technically, only the webserver that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the website associated with that webserver.

Cookies themselves do not require personal information to be used and, in most cases, do not personally identify internet users.

There are 2 broad categories of cookies:

• Session cookies – these are stored temporarily in the cookie folder of the web browser so that the browser remembers them until the user exits the website or closes the browser window (e.g. when logging in/out of a webmail or social networking account).
• Persistent Cookies – These are stored on a computer or device’s hard-drive (and generally depend on the cookie’s default lifetime). Persistent cookies also include those placed by a website other than the one the user is currently visiting – known as “third party cookies” – which can be used anonymously to remember a user’s interests so that the most relevant advertising can be delivered to users.

From the point of view of the operator who places cookies, there are:

• first party cookies-placed by the owner of the visited website
• third party cookies – placed by the operator of a website other than the one you are visiting. These third parties must also comply with applicable law and the privacy policies of the owner of the website on which they place cookies.

From the point of view of the purposes for which cookies are placed, there are usually the following categories of cookies: strictly necessary, measurement, for analyzing and improving the performance of websites and promotion (targeting and advertising).

Details on the typology and description of all known types of cookies can be found by following this link: https://cookiepedia.co.uk.

What are the advantages of cookies?

A cookie contains information that links a web-browser (the user) to a specific web-server (the website). If a browser accesses that web-server again, it can read the information already stored and react accordingly. Cookies provide users with a pleasant browsing experience and support the efforts of many websites to provide convenient services to users: e.g. online privacy preferences, site language options, shopping carts or relevant advertising.

What is the lifetime of a cookie?

Cookies are managed by webservers. The lifetime of a cookie can vary significantly depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are used exclusively for a single session (session cookies) and are not retained once the user has left the website and some cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to that website (“permanent cookies”). However, cookies can be deleted by a user at any time through browser settings.

How are cookies used by this website?

A visit to this website may place cookies for the following purposes:

• Site performance cookies
• Visitor analysis cookies
• Geotargeting cookies
• Registration cookies
• Advertising cookies
• Advertisers’ cookies

These cookies may come from the following third parties: social media sites such as Facebook, Google, Adform and others.

Performance cookies

This type of cookie retains the user’s preferences on this site, so there is no need to set them each time you visit the site.

Example:

– volume settings for the video player

– the video streaming speed the browser supports;

Cookies for visitor analytics

Each time a user visits this site analytics software provided by a third party generates a user analytics cookie. This cookie tells us whether you have visited this site before. Your browser will tell us if you have this cookie and if not, we will generate one. It allows us to track unique users who visit us and how often.

As long as you are not registered on this site, this cookie cannot be used to identify individuals, they are only used for statistical purposes. If you are registered we may also know the details you have provided to us, such as your e-mail address and username – these are subject to the confidentiality and privacy provisions of our Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy and the provisions of the legislation in force regarding the protection of personal data.

Cookies for geotargeting

These cookies are used by software that determines which country you come from. It is completely anonymous and is only used to target the content – even when you are on our page in English or another language you receive the same advertisement.

Registration cookies

When you register on this site, we generate a cookie that tells us whether you are registered or not. Our servers use these cookies to tell us which account you are registered with and whether you have permission for a particular service. It also allows us to associate any comments you post on our site with your username. If you have not selected “keep me logged in”, this cookie will automatically delete itself when you close your browser or computer.

Advertising cookies

These cookies allow us to find out whether or not you have viewed an online advertisement, what type of advertisement it is and how long it has been since you saw the advertisement.

We also use these cookies to target online advertising. We may also use cookies belonging to a third party to better target advertising, for example to show advertisements about apartments, if the user has recently visited an article on the site about certain apartments. These cookies are anonymous, they store information about the content viewed, not about the users.

We also set anonymous cookies through other sites on which we advertise. By receiving them, so we can use them to recognize you as a visitor to that site if you subsequently visit our site, we will be able to deliver advertising to you based on that information.

Advertisers’ cookies

Much of the advertising you find on this site belongs to third parties. Some of these third parties use their own anonymous cookies to analyze how many people have been exposed to an advertisement, or to see how many people have been exposed to the same advertisement multiple times.

The companies that generate these cookies have their own privacy policies, and this site does not have access to read or write these cookies. Third party cookies may be used to show you targeted advertising on other sites based on your browsing on this site.

Other third-party cookies

On some pages, third parties may set their own anonymous cookies in order to track the success of an application or to customize an application. Due to the way it is used, this site cannot access these cookies, just as third parties cannot access cookies owned by this site.

For example, when you share an article using the social network button on this website, that social network will record your activity.

What type of information is stored and accessed through cookies?

Cookies store information in a small text file that allows a website to recognize a browser. The Webserver will recognize the browser until the cookie expires or is deleted.

The cookie stores important information that enhances the Internet browsing experience (e.g.: setting the language in which you want to access a website; keeping a user logged into a webmail account; online banking security; keeping products in your shopping cart)

A list of these cookies and the identity of the third parties who place them is set out in the following list:

Why are cookies important for the Internet?

Cookies are central to the efficient functioning of the Internet, helping to generate a user-friendly browsing experience tailored to each user’s preferences and interests. Refusing or disabling cookies may make some websites unusable.

Rejecting or disabling cookies does not mean that you will no longer receive online advertising – only that it will no longer be able to take into account your preferences and interests, as evidenced by your browsing behavior.

Examples of important uses of cookies (which do not require authentication of a user via an account):

• Content and services tailored to user preferences – news categories, weather, sport, maps, public and government services, entertainment sites and travel services.
• Offers tailored to user interests – password retention, language preferences (e.g:

display search results in Romanian).

• Retain child protection filters for Internet content (family mode options, safe search functions).
• Limiting ad frequency – limiting the number of times an advertisement is shown to a particular user on a website.
• Provide more relevant advertising to the user.
• Measurement, optimization and analytics features – such as confirming a certain level of traffic to a website, what type of content is being viewed and how a user gets to a website (e.g. through search engines, directly, from other websites etc.) Websites run these analytics on their usage to improve their websites for the benefit of their users.

Security and privacy issues

Cookies are NOT viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of pieces of code so they cannot be executed nor can they auto-run. Consequently, they cannot be duplicated or replicated on other networks to run or replicate themselves again. Since they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses.

Cookies can still be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about users’ preferences and browsing history, both on a particular site and on many other sites, cookies can be used as a form of Spyware. Many anti-spyware products are aware of this fact and constantly mark cookies for deletion as part of their anti-virus/anti-spyware removal/scanning procedures.

In general, browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a particular site.

Other security issues related to cookies:

Because identity protection is very valuable and is the right of every Internet user, it is advisable to know what possible problems cookies can create. Because cookies constantly transmit information back and forth between the browser and the website, if an attacker or unauthorized person intervenes in the data transmission, the information contained in the cookie can be intercepted.

Although very rare, this can happen if the browser connects to the server using an unencrypted network (e.g. an unsecured WiFi network).

Other cookie-based attacks involve incorrect cookie settings on servers. If a website does not prompt the browser to use only encrypted channels, attackers can use this vulnerability to trick browsers into sending information through insecure channels. Attackers then use the information to gain unauthorized access to certain websites. It is very important to be careful in choosing the most appropriate way to protect your personal information.

Tips for safe and responsible browsing based on cookies.

Due to their flexibility and the fact that most of the most visited and largest sites use cookies, they are almost unavoidable. Disabling cookies will not allow the user to access the most popular and widely used sites including Youtube, Gmail, Yahoo and others.

Here are a few tips that can ensure that you can browse worry-free but with cookies:

• Customize your browser’s cookie settings to reflect a level

comfortable for you of the security of the use of cookies.

• If you do not mind cookies and you are the only person using your computer,

you can set long expiration times for storing browsing history and data

personal access.

• If you share access to your computer, you may consider setting your browser to delete individual browsing data each time you close your browser. This is an alternative to accessing sites that place cookies and deleting any visiting information when you close your browsing session.
• Install and constantly update your anti-spyware applications.

Many spyware detection and prevention applications include website attack detection. This prevents the browser from accessing websites that could exploit browser vulnerabilities or download dangerous software.

Make sure your browser is always up-to-date.

Many cookie-based attacks are performed by exploiting weaknesses in older versions of browsers.

Cookies are everywhere and cannot be avoided if you want to enjoy access to the best and biggest sites on the Internet – local or international. With a clear understanding of how they work and the benefits they bring, you can take the necessary security measures so that you can confidently surf the Internet.

How can I stop cookies?

Disabling and refusing to receive cookies may make certain websites impracticable or difficult to visit and use. Also, refusing to accept cookies does not mean that you will no longer receive/see online advertising.

It is possible to set your browser to stop accepting these cookies or you can set your browser to accept cookies from a particular site. But, for example, if you are not registered using cookies, you will not be able to leave comments.

All modern browsers offer the possibility to change cookie settings. These settings are usually found in the “options” or “preferences” menu of your browser.

In order to understand these settings, the following links may be useful, otherwise you can use the “help” option of your browser for more details.

Details on browser settings to block or delete cookies are available below:

Google Chrome:

• click on the key icon and select Options from the list
