Why do we use cookies?

We do use cookies thanks to their useful ability to enhance your navigation through our website and make it easier. One can say that cookies are some sort of memories that the website holds about you, helping it to recall your previous navigation and your personal choices. You can surf easier and faster on a website that remembers you in contrast to a website that does not remember your previous access. This is the reason why most of the websites you know and like use cookies.

What's in a cookie?

A cookie is a simple piece of information that takes the form of a very small text file. Each cookie is unique and includes the name of the site that created it and a unique combination of numbers and letters. Most of the websites place cookies on your device's hard drive (computer, mobile phone, or tablet) when you browse them. They do this through your browser - for example Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari, or Firefox. A cookie can only be read and retrieved by the website that created it. Websites can never exchange information with each other through cookies. Some cookies are valid only during your visit. These "session cookies" disappear from your computer or mobile device after you close your browser. Other cookies remain on your computer or mobile device after you close your browser and are still valid for a specified period of time. These "persistent cookies" are activated every time you visit the website that generated them.

What's not in a cookie?

Cookies (as individual items) do NOT contain:

• Personal information - you cannot be personally identified based on a cookie.
• Program code - unlike a computer virus, a cookie is not composed of code, which means that it is not able to damage your device.

What are the purposes for which we use cookies?

A visit to our website may place the following types of cookies:

• Cookies strictly necessary for the operation of the website
• Cookies for analyzing the behavior of site visitors
• Cookies for personalized advertising

Necessary cookies

First, cookies may be required to ensure the proper functioning of the website. For example, without cookies, it can be difficult for the website to remember that you are logged in. These are called necessary cookies, and are active automatically, without being conditioned by the visitor's consent. We have included cookies to show you non-personalized advertising (which reminds you that an ad has been displayed), as well as those that measure our audience on the website (but do not include the demographic or audience segmentation component).

Analytical cookies

Analysis cookies collect information about how visitors use a web page, such as which pages are the most popular, which method of linking the pages is most effective, and whether users receive error messages from web pages. These cookies allow us to provide users with a high-quality user experience and serve to help improve the way our website works, as well as the demographic segmentation of the audience.

Finally, when we integrate social network plug-ins into the site, they place social media cookies to allow the playback of the content (e.g. YouTube, SoundCloud), to give you the opportunity to log in using a third-party service (e.g. Facebook or Google), as well as to give you the opportunity to appreciate or share a page on your favorite social service.

Cookies for personalized advertising

The use of advertising personalization cookies is a current standard of the most important websites you visit. This type of advertising helps us to reach the categories of customers interested in a certain type of product, to which the respective advertisements are displayed. Usually, the information about the categories that define the range of interested users is not personal data, but the profile created about visitors is based on the data collected through advertising profiling cookies and falls into the category of personal data. As these cookies are placed by services controlled by us, it results that the profiling (which is a processing of personal data) through these cookies is performed by us as a data operator. You can choose not to be profiled by Google for advertising purposes at www.google.com/settings/ads.

NoraBytes.com will use by default only cookies that are strictly necessary for the good functioning of the website, while the other categories of cookies can only be used after your consent is given.
